Education-related gender differences in health in rural China.

Jing Wu1, Yuanli Liu, Keqin Rao, Qi Sun, Juncheng Qian, Zhu Li.   

Abstract

We investigated gender differences in education-related health inequalities in rural China. Household interview data were obtained from 6 provinces in 1993 and 2001. Remarkable health inequalities existed and favored the higher educational groups; among women, the inequalities were greater and health inequalities increased from 1993 to 2001. Education serves as a more powerful mediating factor for health inequalities among women than among men in rural China.
