salud autopercibida, desigualdad de ingreso, determinantes de salud, análisis multinivel, estatus socioeconómico.Resumen
Este trabajo plantea dos propósitos, el primero verificar si las condiciones económicas contextuales influyen en la salud autopercibida, independiente del estatus socioeconómico del individuo. Y segundo, explorar los mecanismos que operarían en el nivel de las regiones y que podrían explicar la influencia de las condiciones económicas estructurales, sobre la percepción de una salud pobre. Para esto se utiliza una metodología de análisis multinivel que permite separar los factores individuales y contextuales que influyen sobre la percepción de salud. Entre los resultados, se muestra que el estatus socioeconómico es un determinante fundamental de la percepción de salud de la población. No obstante, permanecen diferencias significativas en la salud percibida, aun después de controlar por la riqueza individual, el nivel educativo y la pertenencia étnica. Estas solo desaparecen cuando se tiene en cuenta la desigualdad de ingreso.
