title: [Identification of social risk factors for health of preschool children residing in areas with high anthropogenic load].
abstract: In the article there is substantiated the need to include social factors (particularly lifestyle factors) in the risk assessment procedure of the health of children residing in conditions of anthropogenic impact on the environment. The purpose and algorithm for identification of social risk factors are disclosed. There are reported results of testing of author's approaches as exemplified of the Perm region (sample size--642 people). There is established high prevalence of behavioral risk factors for the health of children residing in industrialized areas--wrong nutrition, hypodynamia, exposure to secondhand smoke, and the irresponsible behavior of parents with regards to the health of children. On the base of the results of an epidemiological analysis accordingly to the odds ratio there is determined that the socio-economic status of the family appears as a key condition for the formation of a behavioral risk for the health of preschool children. The parents' education was found to contribute to the formation of behavioral risks to children's health more, than the level of family income.
