Effect of childhood victimization on Occupational Prestige and income trajectories.
PloS one, 2015Co-Authors: Cristina A. Fernandez, Sharon L. Christ, William G. Leblanc, Kristopher L. Arheart, Noella A. Dietz, Kathyrn E. Mccollister, Lora E. Fleming, Carles Muntaner, Peter A. Muennig, David J. LeeAbstract:BACKGROUND: Violence toward children (childhood victimization) is a major public health problem, with long-term consequences on economic well-being. The purpose of this study was to determine whether childhood victimization affects Occupational Prestige and income in young adulthood. We hypothesized that young adults who experienced more childhood victimizations would have less prestigious jobs and lower incomes relative to those with no victimization history. We also explored the pathways in which childhood victimization mediates the relationships between background variables, such as parent's educational impact on the socioeconomic transition into adulthood. METHODS: A nationally representative sample of 8,901 young adults aged 18-28 surveyed between 1999-2009 from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 (NLSY) were analyzed. Covariate-adjusted multivariate linear regression and path models were used to estimate the effects of victimization and covariates on income and Prestige levels and on income and Prestige trajectories. After each participant turned 18, their annual 2002 Census job code was assigned a yearly Prestige score based on the 1989 General Social Survey, and their annual income was calculated via self-reports. Occupational Prestige and annual income are time-varying variables measured from 1999-2009. Victimization effects were tested for moderation by sex, race, and ethnicity in the multivariate models. RESULTS: Approximately half of our sample reported at least one instance of childhood victimization before the age of 18. Major findings include 1) childhood victimization resulted in slower income and Prestige growth over time, and 2) mediation analyses suggested that this slower Prestige and earnings arose because victims did not get the same amount of education as non-victims. CONCLUSIONS: Results indicated that the consequences of victimization negatively affected economic success throughout young adulthood, primarily by slowing the growth in prosperity due to lower education levels.

The effects of a psychosocial dimension of socioeconomic position on survival: Occupational Prestige and mortality among US working adults.
Sociology of health & illness, 2012Co-Authors: Sharon L. Christ, Lora E. Fleming, Carles Muntaner, Peter A. Muennig, David J. Lee, Alberto J. Caban-martinezAbstract:The association between education or income and mortality has been explored in great detail. These measures capture both the effects of material disadvantage on health and the psychosocial impacts of a low socioeconomic position on health. When explored independently of educational attainment and income, Occupational Prestige – a purely perceptual measure – serves as a measure of the impact of a psychosocial phenomenon on health. For instance, a fire-fighter, academician or schoolteacher may carry the social benefits of a higher social status without actually having the income (in all cases) or the educational credentials (in the case of the fire-fighter) to match. We explored the independent influence of Occupational Prestige on mortality. We applied Cox proportional hazards models to a nationally representative sample of over 380,000 US workers who had worked at any time between 1986 and 1994 with mortality follow up through 2002. We found that Occupational Prestige is associated with a decrease in the risk of all-cause, cancer, cardiovascular and respiratory-related mortality after controlling for household income and educational attainment. We further investigated the question of whether the effects of Prestige are moderated by sex and broader Occupational groupings. Prestige effects operate in white-collar occupations for men only and within service occupations for all workers.

Occupational Prestige trajectory and the risk of lung and head and neck cancer among men and women in France
International Journal of Public Health, 2018Co-Authors: Gwenn Menvielle, Isabelle Stucker, Julien Dugas, Jeanna-eve Franck, Matthieu Carton, Brigitte Trétarre, Danièle LuceAbstract:Objectives: This study aimed at investigating the associations between Occupational Prestige trajectories and lung and head and neck (HN) cancer risk and to assess to what extent smoking, alcohol drinking, and Occupational exposures contribute to these associations.Methods: Using data from the ICARE case–control study (controls (2676 men/715 women), lung cancers (2019 men/558 women), HN cancers (1793 men/305 women), we defined Occupational Prestige trajectories using group-based modeling of longitudinal data. We conducted logistic regression models.Results: Among men, a gradient was observed from the downward “low to very low” trajectory to the stable very high trajectory. The associations were reduced when adjusting for tobacco and alcohol consumption and Occupational exposures. Among women, when compared to the stable high trajectory, there was an increased cancer risk in all trajectories. The associations remained globally unchanged or even increased after adjustment for tobacco and alcohol consumption and did not change when adjusting for Occupational exposures. The ORs were smaller for lung than for HN cancers in men.Conclusions: Occupational Prestige trajectory is strongly associated with lung and HN cancer risk in men and women.

Occupational Prestige social mobility and the association with lung cancer in men
BMC Cancer, 2016Co-Authors: Thomas Behrens, Isabelle Gros, Jack Siemiatycki, David I Conway, Ann Olsson, Isabelle Stucker, Florence Guida, Karlheinz Jockel, Hermann PohlabelnAbstract:The nature of the association between Occupational social Prestige, social mobility, and risk of lung cancer remains uncertain. Using data from the international pooled SYNERGY case–control study, we studied the association between lung cancer and the level of time-weighted average Occupational social Prestige as well as its lifetime trajectory. We included 11,433 male cases and 14,147 male control subjects. Each job was translated into an Occupational social Prestige score by applying Treiman’s Standard International Occupational Prestige Scale (SIOPS). SIOPS scores were categorized as low, medium, and high Prestige (reference). We calculated odds ratios (OR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI), adjusting for study center, age, smoking, ever employment in a job with known lung carcinogen exposure, and education. Trajectories in SIOPS categories from first to last and first to longest job were defined as consistent, downward, or upward. We conducted several subgroup and sensitivity analyses to assess the robustness of our results. We observed increased lung cancer risk estimates for men with medium (OR = 1.23; 95 % CI 1.13–1.33) and low Occupational Prestige (OR = 1.44; 95 % CI 1.32–1.57). Although adjustment for smoking and education reduced the associations between Occupational Prestige and lung cancer, they did not explain the association entirely. Traditional Occupational exposures reduced the associations only slightly. We observed small associations with downward Prestige trajectories, with ORs of 1.13, 95 % CI 0.88–1.46 for high to low, and 1.24; 95 % CI 1.08–1.41 for medium to low trajectories. Our results indicate that Occupational Prestige is independently associated with lung cancer among men.
