Abstract

OBJECTIVE: In this study, it is aimed to determine the frequency of use and feature of social class and socioeconomic indicators in the Journals ofTurkish Faculties of Medicine. MATERIAL and METHODS: The study was carried out on medical school journals indexed in ULAKBIM Turkish Electronic Medical Data Base. Social class and socioeconomic indicators surveyed only in original researches by analyzing materials/methods and results section. RESULTS: In the study, 406 volumes and 2390 researches of 17 medical faculty journals were surveyed. Socioeconomic indicators were mentioned only in 209 (%8.87) of researches. Education is the most commonly used indicator for this purpose. Social class was never used as an indicator at all. CONCLUSION: As socioeconomic indicators have been studied insufficiently in medical faculty journals, social class has never been studied. Socioeconomic indicators that affect health are not given the importance they deserve by researchers.
