Macro-level socioeconomic factors and mental health in midlife and older adults in China: a multilevel analysis
The study suggests that macro-level ED contributes to better depressive status. EI and potential systematic inequality lead to worsened cognitive functions and life dissatisfaction. It is too soon to generalise whether institutional factors like GWPH and PHRI are good or bad for mental health, but the current public health system in China does not adequately support mental and cognitive health.
