Abstract
|
|
|
|
Housing, which has ontological meaning, produces a sense of control and autonomy for all people, as existing studies have examined the health consequences of diverse dimensions such as physical condition and affordability. Using the Korean Welfare Panel Study, this study aimed to explore self-rated health and life satisfaction among housing vulnerable groups. It was shown that people living in a place which is non-housing or inferior to minimum housing standards are likely to report lower self-rated health and lower life-satisfaction compared to the general population. Their associations are mediated by satisfaction with the housing environment, partially in self-rated health and completely in life-satisfaction. Our findings could provide evidence of housing effects on health, and future studies are needed to investigate the complex needs of housing vulnerable groups.
