Description
Kristin Haraldstad and co-authors surveyed children in low income Norwegian families in 2023 about their health related quality of life. About twelve percent of Norwegian children live in relative poverty, and the study was part of a project giving such families joined up welfare support with a family coordinator.
The survey covered 214 children aged eight to eighteen whose families had lived below a set income line for three years. Girls scored lower than boys on physical well being only. Children with a migrant background scored higher on all five parts of the scale, a surprise the authors note. Age linked to school environment scores, and leisure activities also entered the patterns studied.
