• Psychological Stress in Childhood and Susceptibility to the Chronic Diseases of Aging: Moving Towards a Model of Behavioral and Biological Mechanisms (2011, background): “Galobardes et al. (2004, 2008) reported that 28/33 studies found an increased risk of all-cause mortality, typically of 20%–40%, among individuals reared in low- versus high-SES households.”
• Health psychology: developing biologically plausible models linking the social world and physical health. (2009, background): “For example, there is mounting evidence that unfavorable socioeconomic circumstances in the early years of life are associated with increased vulnerability to various diseases in adulthood (Cohen et al. 2004, Kittleson et al. 2006, Lawlor et al. 2006; see review by Galobardes et al. 2004).”
• Socioeconomic status in health research: one size does not fit all. (2005, background): “fluence adult health independently of adult SES.(6,13,31-33,79,95-99) Acknowledging that the relative importance of SES early in life varies with health outcomes, Smith and Ben-Shlomo(13) concluded that “studies with data on so-”
• Low early-life social class leaves a biological residue manifested by decreased glucocorticoid and increased proinflammatory signaling (2009, background): “PBMCs from these subjects also produced 35% more IL6 in response to TLR5 stimulation with flagellin [F(1,98) 3.”
• Social Inequality and Health Across the Life Course (2013, background): “A growing body of research has begun to compare the effects of childhood and adult SES on different health outcomes or mortality causes (e.g., Galobardes et al., 2004; Luo & Waite, 2005).”
• The Power of Personality: The Comparative Validity of Personality Traits, Socioeconomic Status, and Cognitive Ability for Predicting Important Life Outcomes (2007, methodology): “(3)Most of the studies of SES and mortality were compiled from an exhaustive review of the literature on the effect of childhood SES and mortality (Galobardes et al., 2004).”
• A life course approach to chronic disease epidemiology. (2005, background): “—are socially patterned and are thus important mechanisms in generating social inequalities in adult health (11, 38, 46, 74).”
