摘要: Abstract We have previously shown, using a wide range od health measures, that there is little evidence of consistent class gradients in adolescence. This paper examines the possibility those findings were an artefact measure used. Seven indicators health, development and functioning are investigated six different occupationally-based five non-occupationally based measures socio-economic status. The results do not alter conclusion earlier paper, namely adolescence consistently apparent most health.
