Does who you live with matter for your health? The influence of partners' socioeconomic characteristics on self-rated health in Norway

To reduce social inequalities in health, health personnel might customise interactions to account for household resources. Such knowledge could also be used in health-promoting activities to enhance participation and health competency.PMID:37705349 | DOI:10.1177/14034948231197453
