dc.description.abstract | Objectives: Housing is one of the social determinants of health, and the evidence of its imppact in this area has been increasingly expanded. However, in spite of its importance, there have been few studies to investigate an association between housing and health in Korea. Our study aimed to investigate housing tenure and affordability and their effects on helath outcomes in Korea. Study design: We selected 9456 participants from the 10-11th wave of the Korea Welfare Panel Study, after excluding missing variables. Housing tenure and affordability were chosen as independent variables. Methods: Logistic regression was implemented to investigate the association between housing tenure/ affordability and health outcome, and all covariates such as sex, age, and household income were adjusted. Results: Compared with homeowners, renters are more likely to have depressive symptoms(odds ratio [OR]: 1.26, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.08,1.47) and poor self-rated health (OR:1.56, 95% ci: 1.15,2.13) and poor self-rated helath (OR: 1.51, 95% CI: 1.10, 2.06) is significantly high among renters who reported unaffordability. Conclusion: This study could provide evidence of housing as a determinant of health by showing that both housing tenure and affordability are significantly related to health outcomes. |
