abstract: 'Background: International literature shows unemployment and income loss
|
|
|
|
during the Great Recession worsened population mental health. This
|
|
|
|
individual-level longitudinal study examines how regional economic
|
|
|
|
trends and austerity related to depression using administrative
|
|
|
|
prescription data for a large and representative population sample.
|
|
|
|
Methods: Records from a sample of the Scottish Longitudinal Study (N=86
|
|
|
|
500) were linked to monthly primary care antidepressant prescriptions
|
|
|
|
(2009-15). Regional economic trends were characterized by annual
|
|
|
|
full-time employment data (2004-14). Economic impact of austerity was
|
|
|
|
measured via annual income lost per working age adult due to welfare
|
|
|
|
reforms (2010-15). Sequence analysis identified new cases of
|
|
|
|
antidepressant use, and group-based trajectory modelling classified
|
|
|
|
regions into similar economic trajectories. Multi-level logistic
|
|
|
|
regression examined relationships between regional economic trends and
|
|
|
|
new antidepressant prescriptions. Structural equation mediation analysis
|
|
|
|
assessed the contributory role of welfare reforms. Results: Employed
|
|
|
|
individuals living in regions not recovering post-recession had the
|
|
|
|
highest risk of beginning a new course of antidepressants (AOR 1.23;
|
|
|
|
95\% CI 1.08-1.38). Individuals living in areas with better recovery
|
|
|
|
trajectories had the lowest risk. Mediation analyses showed that 50\%
|
|
|
|
(95\% CI 7-61 \%) of this association was explained by the impact of
|
|
|
|
welfare benefit reforms on average incomes. Conclusions: Following the
|
|
|
|
Great Recession, local labour market decline and austerity measures were
|
|
|
|
associated with growing antidepressant usage, increasing regional
|
|
|
|
inequalities in mental health. The study evidences the impact of
|
|
|
|
austerity on health inequalities and suggests that economic conditions
|
|
|
|
and welfare policies impact on population health. Reducing the burden of
|
|
|
|
mental ill-health primarily requires action on the social determinants.'
