OBJECTIVE:We examined the contribution of socioeconomic disadvantage and traumatic life events to ethnic disparities in disability among Israeli adults. METHOD:We used data from the Survey of Health, Aging and Retirement in Europe (SHARE-Israel), a sample of Israeli adults aged 50 or older (N = 1,546). Disability measures included functional limitations, limitations in activities of daily living (ADL), and limitations in instrumental activities of daily living (IADL). RESULTS:Arabs and immigrants from the Former Soviet Union (FSU) experienced higher rates of functional limitations and limitations in IADLs compared to veteran Jews. The rate of having limitations in ADLs was similar for Arabs and veteran Jews, but was higher for FSU immigrants compared to veteran Jews. Inclusion of education, income, and traumatic life events attenuated, but did not eliminate ethnic disparities in disability. DISCUSSION:Identifying factors driving ethnic health disparities in Israel is imperative if we hope to achieve health equity.

目的:我们研究了社会经济劣势和创伤性生活事件对以色列成年人中残疾人种族差异的影响。
方法:我们使用了来自欧洲健康,老龄化和退休调查(SHARE-以色列)的数据,该数据是年龄在50岁或以上(N = 1,546)的以色列成年人的样本。残疾措施包括功能限制,日常生活活动的限制(ADL)和日常生活活动的限制(IADL)。
结果:与经验丰富的犹太人相比,来自前苏联(FSU)的阿拉伯人和移民经历了更高的功能限制和IADL限制。阿拉伯人和经验丰富的犹太人对ADL的限制率相似,但与经验丰富的犹太人相比,FSU移民的ADL受到限制的比率更高。对教育,收入和创伤性生活事件的包容性减弱了,但并没有消除残疾方面的种族差异。
讨论:如果我们希望实现健康平等,必须确定导致以色列种族健康差异的因素。
