Dr. Montez and Dr. Zajacova, with colleagues, have recently published “Changes in the Education-Health Gradient Within U.S. States, 1993–2019” in Population Research and Policy Review. Using 27 years of Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data, this study found that the education–health gradient strengthened significantly in 49 of 50 U.S. states among adults aged 30–64.

State-level contextual factors contributed little, highlighting the importance of subnational approaches to health inequality.
