Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS ou9R0xes. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives : We examined the public health impact of the socioeconomic status (SES) gradient on adolescents'physical and mental health. Methods : Population attributable risk (PAR) for household income and parental education were calculated relative to depression and obesity among a nationally representative sample of 15112 adolescents. Results : PARs for income and education were large. Across each gender and race/ethnicity group, the PAR for education tended to exceed that for income. For depression, the adjusted PAR for income was 26%, and the PAR for education was 40% ; for obesity, the adjusted PAR for income was 32%, and the PAR for education was 39%. Conclusions : SES is associated with a large proportion of the disease burden within the total population.
