The main aim of this study was to examine whether the economic status (current and in childhood) determined pro-ecological attitudes and behaviour. The survey involved 207 adults with different economic status. Both economic status in childhood and the present were taken into consideration. Analysis of the results indicated that people raised in families with low and medium material status have not only more eco-friendly attitudes but also have a greater tendency towards various ‘green’ behaviours. The differences among people with different current material status concerning their eco-friendly attitudes and behaviours are not so obvious. The most wealthy seem to have a less pro-ecological attitude, but on the other hand they are ready to put more money towards ecologically-friendly household expenses.

Among the phenomena that characterize modern society it is possible to note the appearance of complex political, occupational, and sectorial systems of status and the weakening of the ‘class’ factor in its ideological meaning. The main result of this development was the steadily increasing conflictbetween, on the one hand, the trends of economic development and the new centers of power and, on the other hand, the mobility of new groups. All the groups competed among themselves over the additions of income, accessibility to economic resources, and positions of influencein the government system as well as over the creation of autonomous frameworks. An important part in these sectorial formations is related to the positioning of education in the entire stratifiedsystem. The statement that the extension of education has not resulted in the reduction of social gaps in the professional field,especially between employees, is correct, yet conversely it did drive a process of change in the evaluation of different subjects and a change in the perception of education as a necessary state of specialization. This aspect constitutes an important factor in the processing of the stratifiedmap and in the formation of the class awareness. The education systems, which are the main organizations to inculcate education, can determine who is qualifiedand who is not qualifiedto filldifferent employment roles; they have become the main device for the achievement of social and economic status.

ObjectivesIncreased life expectancy results in greater challenges posed to healthcare. Concurrently, a shortage of healthcare workforce, including nurses, has been observed. Thus, an urgent need exists to implement improvements in healthcare services based on sufficient evidence. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of the relative number of nurses/midwives on life expectancy, and the influence of selected economic variables: gross domestic product (GDP), health expenditure as a percentage of GDP, and health expenditure per capita, on this number. The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of the relative number of nurses/midwives on life expectancy, and the influence of select economic variables: GDP, health expenditure as a percentage of GDP, and health expenditure per capita on this number.Material and MethodsA retrospective analysis based on data from 46 countries was performed. Correlations between the relative number of nurses/midwives and life expectancy as well as economic variables were evaluated. To trace the differences between the countries with different relative numbers of nurses/midwives, the countries were divided into groups as follows – group 1: <5 nurses and midwives/1000 nurses inhabitants, group 2: 5–10 nurses and midwives/1000 inhabitants, and group 3: >10 nurses and midwives/1000 inhabitants.ResultsCorrelations were found between the relative number of nurses/midwives and life expectancy (p < 0.001, r = 0.68), and economic variables (p < 0.001, r = 0.82; p < 0.001, r = 0.62, and p < 0.001, r = 0.8, respectively). Life expectancy was higher in group 3 vs. groups 1 and 2 (p < 0.001 and p = 0.036, respectively), and in group 2 vs. group 1 (p = 0.006). Economic variables were higher in group 3 vs. group 1 (p < 0.001 for all) and group 2 (p = 0.016, p = 0.025, p = 0.022, respectively), and in group 2 vs. group 1 (p = 002, p = 0.024, p = 0.002, respectively).ConclusionsThe relative number of nurses/midwives correlates with life expectancy and relies on the country’s income and level of healthcare system financing.

На основе данных из панельного обследования SHARE (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe), расширенного в третьем раунде панеля SHARELIFE было представлено, что события прошлого имеют значение для формирования текущего состояния здоровья и экономического положения лиц в возрасте не менее 50 лет проживающих в Европе. Самооценка состояния здоровья и сила рукопожатия значительно отличалась в зависимости от состояния здоровья и экономического статуса в детстве, опыта полученного в периодах плохого здоровья и медицинской помощи в зрелом возрасте. Для лиц с самым низким экономическим статусом в детстве, стратификация не изменилась и позже. Плохое или просто удовлетворительное здоровье в детстве было связано с низкими доходами домашнего хозяйства позже, чего не наблюдалось в периодах плохого здоровья в зрелом возрасте.

Na podstawie danych z badania panelowego SHARE (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe), rozszerzonego w trzeciej rundzie panelu SHARELIFE pokazano, że wydarzenia z przeszłości mają znaczenie dla kształtowania się bieżącej sytuacji zdrowotnej i ekonomicznej osób w wieku co najmniej 50 lat żyjących w Europie. Samoocena stanu zdrowia i siła uścisku dłoni istotnie się różniła w zależności od stanu zdrowia i statusu ekonomicznego w dzieciństwie, doświadczenia zdobytego w okresach pogorszenia zdrowia i opieki medycznej w wieku dorosłym. W przypadku osób o najniższym statusie ekonomicznym w dzieciństwie, stratyfikacja nie zmieniła się w wieku późniejszym. Złe lub tylko zadowalające zdrowie w dzieciństwie wiązało się z niskimi dochodami gospodarstwa domowego w wieku późniejszym, czego nie obserwowano w okresach pogorszenia się zdrowia w wieku dorosłym.

Data from the SHARE panel (Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe), expanded in the third round SHARELIFE panel, show that the events of the past are important for the development of the current situation and the economic health of living in Europe people aged at least 50 years. Self-assessment of health status and handshake power differ significantly depending on the health and economic status in childhood, the experience gained during periods of ill and medical care in adulthood. For those with the lowest economic status in childhood, stratification has not changed later in life. Bad or just satisfactory health in childhood was associated with low household income in later life. This was not observed in periods of deterioration in health in adulthood.
