Social-ecological models account for these complex processes but risk being overly broad and all-encompassing.

Data was collected through in-depth interviews about health and health behaviours throughout the life course among middle-aged men and women. The results illustrate how factors obstructing or enabling health behaviours vary in patterned ways for individuals with different health identities.
