In the 70s and 80s, a number of analyses of nonresponses in questionnaires was conducted with the assumption that nonresponses carry much important information. The share of expressed nonresponses can be an indicator of apathy, ignorance and lack of information. Studies revealed a higher share of nonresponses being expressed by women in comparison to men. Changing social conditions, such as the period of transition after the change of political system, the emancipation of women and financial and economic crises, can have an impact on the gender inequality expressed in nonresponses. This article will analyse the differences in nonresponse answers between men and women to some socioeconomic questions for three periods: 1) 2000–2003, the period after the transition and before accession to the European Union (EU); 2) 2004–2008, the period after accession to the EU and the presidency of the Council of the EU, as well as a period of economic growth; and 3) 2009–2013, the beginning of economic, financial and political crises in Slovenia. The number of nonresponses between men and women is different in the three observed periods. In opposition to our assumption, the gap was higher in the first two periods and lower in the period of economic, financial and political crises.

The results of research on the social genesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) based on life-cycle approach indicate that low socioeconomic status during early phases of ontogenesis is connected with increased risk of developing CAD in adulthood. It means that genesis of social health inequalities, concerning unequal social distribution of CAD, should be considered including early-life social influences. Scientific data concerning the developmental origins of non-communicable chronic diseases, especially those well described regarding CAD, constitute a significant complement to traditional research approach to social health inequalities, focused on middle-aged populations and socioeconomic influences in adulthood, and put emphasis on the role of assessment of the cumulative psychosocial risk of somatic diseases throughout the human life-cycle. This approach is particularly useful in understanding the social processes related to etiopathogenesis of chronic diseases with long latency periods, especially atherosclerosis. Health policy actions, aimed at effective diminishing of social health inequalities, should take into account the above mentioned data and should be directed not only at standard, behavioral coronary risk factors, but also at poor families and their children, who, in the light of the current knowledge, are highly predisposed to suffer from CAD in adulthood.
