[Perceived health and pregnancy: study of several behavioral and environmental determinants among a population of pregnant women].
The aim of this study, based on data of the Centre for Preventive Medicine, is to compare the perceptions women have of their health within a population of pregnant women that was divided into two categories: one group of women who feel they are in a poor health, the others feel they are in good health. The study results seem to differentiate between both the psychological and physical profiles of the two groups of pregnant women. The women who are not followed by a doctor don't seem to have a more negative perception of their health status. It seems, in addition, that the negative perception of health status has not only psychological roots, but also behavioural and environmental ones.
