Socioeconomic status (SES) refers to an individual's or family's economic and social position in relation to others. It encompasses factors such as income, education level, occupation, and social standing. Researchers study SES to understand how it impacts various aspects of life, such as health, education, employment opportunities, and overall well-being. SES often plays a significant role in determining access to resources and opportunities, as well as influencing social relationships and experiences. Studies in this area aim to identify disparities and inequalities related to SES and to develop strategies for addressing and reducing these disparities.
