Abstract

L'objective centrale de cette étude était d'analyser l'influence de différents types de liens entre la vie familiale et la vie professionnelle sur l'état de santé des femmes. Une analyse secondaire de données transversales provenant d'une enquête nationale incluait 1530 femmes d'Allemagne de l'Est et de l'Ouest, âgées de 50 à 69 ans a été effectuée. Ces femmes ont été groupées en trois catégories sur la base de combinaisons entre les différentes conditions de la vie professionnelle et familiale. En plus, les revenus, les charges, la vie sociale, ainsi que les habitudes comportementales ont été inclus dans les analyses. Le plus remarquable résultat était que l'état de santé des femmes actives de 50 à 59 ans, sans enfant, était significativement le plus mauvais, on observait la même conclusion après ajustement par les différents facteurs d'influence. Considérant une proportion sans cesse montante de femmes sans enfant, des analyses longitudinales seraient nécessaires pour vérifier les résultats trouvés. Copyright Birkhäuser Verlag 1999
