Description
Political Science Thesis (M.A.)--The University of New Brunswick, 1998.
Examines the connection between attaining a post-secondary degree and racial earning inequalities.
Study uses data from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey to measure income-related inequalities in the experience of psychological distress and suicidal behaviors in Aboriginal adults living off-reserve. Findings indicate that higher income and especially food security serve as a protective factor against mental health issues. Recommends policy that attends to these socioeconomic determinants of health.
Survey conducted from July to October, 2018.
