Summary: Self-rated health (SRH) is a subjective evaluation of one's own health. Personality traits, including Neuroticism, Agreeableness, Openness, Conscientiousness, and Extraversion, have consistently been found to be significant predictors of SRH. The current study, analyzing data from 33,256 participants, found that age significantly moderates the associations between Agreeableness, Openness, and Conscientiousness and SRH after controlling for demographic covariates. This suggests that the relationship between personality traits and SRH varies across different ages.

Summary: The study found that both males and females in China perceive their SRH as decreasing over time, with female SRH being lower than male SRH on average. However, after using the pattern-mixture model, no gender differences were found in the trajectories of SRH at baseline as well as in the rate of decline among the total sample of Chinese older adults. Males and females respond to SRH predictors similarly, except for current drinking habits having a more pronounced positive effect on males and healthcare accessibility having a more pronounced positive effect on females.

Summary: This study examines the impact of early hardship on individual personality and engagement in business entrepreneurship using the geographical differences in the intensity of China's Great Famine. The research reveals that individuals who experienced more hardship were more likely to become entrepreneurs, and this increase was primarily due to conditioning rather than selection. Furthermore, hardship was associated with increased risk tolerance for both men and women, but only men showed an increase in business ownership.

Summary: Socio-economic and cultural transformations in South Korea have led to changes in the role of social capital, and the relationship between different types of social capital and self-rated health varies by gender. Therefore, men and women may benefit from different forms of social capital in terms of health interventions.

Summary: This study compared the relationship between self-perceived weight and self-rated health (SRH) in cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors. The findings suggest that the association between self-perceived weight and SRH may differ between cancer survivors and non-cancer survivors, depending on their actual weight status.

Summary: This study found that non-Hispanic Black and American Indian rural residents have poorer self-rated health compared to their non-Hispanic White counterparts, and these differences cannot be fully explained by socio-demographic characteristics. Disparities still exist for non-Hispanic Black rural residents even after adjusting for individual characteristics.

Summary: The evidence on the distinction between marginal food security and high food security in self-rated health is insufficient. This study found that members of marginal food security households were more likely to rate their health as poorer compared to those in high food security households, regardless of gender or age.

Summary: This study explores the impact of socioeconomic conditions on self-rated health from a generational perspective, and its differential effect on gender and gender gap. Findings show that individual characteristics, such as educational level and smoking, have a stronger effect on women's perceived health. Additionally, random effects are greater for men and may be linked to economic equity.

Summary: The study aimed to identify sociodemographic characteristics of the population at risk for a greater clustering of unhealthy behaviors and evaluate the association of such clustering with self-rated health status and disability. The findings showed that the majority of participants had 2 or more risk factors, with men, middle-age individuals, and those with low socioeconomic status being more likely to have multiple risk factors.

Summary: This study investigates the influence of positive perceptions of ageing on self-assessment of health in rural people aged 65 and over. The findings reveal that rural women and men have different perspectives on health and ageing. Women's self-perceived health is associated with their ability to do things they want to do, while men's self-perceived health is related to feeling happy when looking back on life and facing family responsibilities. Daily activities and a positive perception of life impact self-perceptions of health, particularly for women.

Summary: This study systematically assesses self-rated health differentials in the U.S. over the past five decades at the intersection of race and gender. The study finds that self-rated health differentials are converging, with notable improvements for Black women and variable trends for Black men. While White women experienced health gains, White men saw little to no change until a decline post-recession. The findings contribute to the understanding of declines in well-being and highlight the adverse effects on the White American (male) population.

Summary: The study found that individual self-rated health is influenced by both individual characteristics and regional economic characteristics, particularly an individual's relative standing in their local economy can condition their response to health questionnaires. Furthermore, the study suggests that both a relative income mechanism and a mechanism linking the cognitive process of choice with the sense of optimism individuals have for their institutional environment are plausible explanations for the observed aggregate level effects.

Summary: This study investigated the association between depressive symptoms and lung cancer risk in a large prospective cohort. The findings suggest that greater depressive symptoms may contribute to lung cancer incidence, directly and indirectly via smoking habits, which accounted for over a third of the association.

Summary: This study found that location-specific income security plays a crucial role in assessing economic resources and hardship in older age, and that financial knowledge can strengthen the negative association between income security and hardship. Interventions to improve financial knowledge in later life can provide protection against hardship, and evaluations of income adequacy may benefit from location-specific assessments of cost-of-living.
