Comparative StudySociodemographic inequalities in depression among older adults: cross-sectional evidence from 18 countries.
Sociodemographic inequalities in depression are well established. However, less is known about variation in inequalities across countries. In this study, we describe cross-national variation in sociodemographic inequalities in depression among older adults. Comparing inequalities across countries is an important step towards understanding how the social environment shapes depression risk. ⋯ US National Institute of Mental Health and Chilean National Commission for Scientific and Technological Research.
