As a reflection of such wide use of the internet, web based research has been one of the working areas of the public health discipline, which basically aims to prevent and promote health and wellbeing of the community. Nevertheless, there are a number of limitations of web based research and these include limitations in participation, methodological issues, ethical limitations, and others. It is important for public health researchers to take all these limitations into consideration during their research. In this paper, the rationale of web based research in Public Health, its methods and basic limitations in use were discussed.

Neoliberalizmin yayginlasmasindan sonra gunumuzun baslica konulari arasindadir. Saglikta esitsizligin iki bileseni vardir: sagligin sosyal belirleyicilerindeki esitsizlik ve saglik hizmetlerindeki esitsizlik. Saglikta esitsizlik calismalarinda standart bir degerlendirme yontemi yoktur, pek cok bagimli ve bagimsiz degisken kullanilmaktadir. Calismalarda kullanilan baslica bagimli degiskenler saglik durumuna (mortalite, morbidite, engellilik), sagligi etkileyen risk etmenlerine, saglik algisina, saglik hizmetlerinin erisilebilirligine ve kullanimina iliskindir. Bagimsiz degisken olarak temelde ogrenim, gelir, meslek, sosyal sinif degiskenleri kullanilmaktadir. Konut ozellikleri, sosyal guvence durumu, etnik yapi, yasami kolaylastirici araclar/dayanikli tuketim mallarina sahip olma, bazi bireysel ve bolgesel esitsizlik indeksleri de bagimsiz degisken olabilmektedir. Saglikta esitsizliklerin yalnizca saglik hizmeti sunumu ile giderilmesi olasi degildir. Saglikta esitsizlikleri azaltmanin yolu sinifsal farkliliklari azaltmak, saglik hizmetlerini daha ulasilabilir ve kapsayici hale getirmek olmakla birlikte temel cozum sinifli toplum yapisinin ortadan kaldirilmasidir.

It is among the main political/social topics today after the spread of neoliberalism. There are two main components of health inequality, inequality in the social determinants of health and inequality in health care. There is no Standard method used for evaluation in health inequality studies and many dependent and independent variables have beenused. The main dependent variables used in these studies are related to health status (mortality, morbidity, disability), perceived health, access to and use of health care. Basically, education, income, occupation and social class are used as independent variables. House ownership, social security status, ethnicity, ownership of durable goods, and some of the individual and regional inequality indexes can also be used as independent variables. It is unlikely that inequalities in health can be eliminated by providing only health care. Although ways to reduce health inequalities areto diminish class differences, to make health services more accessible and comprehensive, the main solution is to eliminate class structure of the population Key Words: Health, inequality, socioeconomic status, poverty","PeriodicalId":30432,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Public Health","volume":"14 3 1","pages":"116-127"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67661996","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Quality of life is an important outcome measure for evaluation of health conditions. This study determines the risk factors of workers in small-scale work places in an industrial site and evaluates their relationship with quality of life. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed at an industrial site which includes 500 small scale work places. 125 work places were selected by randomized sampling and all workers (n=298) in these work places were asked to completed a questionnaire. The World Health Organization Quality of Life Scale (Turkish Version) (WHOQOL-BREF-TR) was used to measure the quality of life. For analysis, descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U, independent t test, variance analyses, Pearson’s correlation and linear regression were used. Results: The mean age of the study group was 34.8±10.9 and 94.6% of the subjects were male. Physical, psychological, social, environmental and national environmental domain scores (mean±standart deviation) were found as 15.5±2.4, 14.7±2.5, 15.3±3.0, 13.8±2.5 and 14.9±4.3 respectively. In the working environment, the most common risks were (respectively) psychosocial (96.3%), ergonomic (67.1%), chemical (32.9%), physical (32.2%) and biological risks (28.5%). Physical, psychological, and national environmental domain scores of workers who were exposed at least one risk were found to be lower than others. Conclusion: Sex, perception of own economic potential and the working environment were risks with significant relevance for the quality of life. The study concluded that the working environment in particular includes risks that were the most important factor on physical and psychological domains.","PeriodicalId":30432,"journal":{"name":"Turkish Journal of Public Health","volume":"13 1","pages":"97-114"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67660939","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
