摘要:The state of health of the population is the result of various determinants, but also a barometer of the conditions that affect the formation of the individual's health. In a healthy society, a healthy individual can develop, and healthy individuals can develop from a healthy society. This article deals with the analysis of the impact of selected factors on the health status of the Slovak population. This is based on data from the latest EHIS (The European Health Interview Survey). We worked with the respondent's answer to the question whether he / she suffers from a long-term health problem (variable with variations yes-no). From the variables surveyed, we chose the ones we thought they could have effect on the selected indicator. With respect to the binary dependent variable, we used logistic regression for the analysis, where all calculations have been carried out in the SAS Enterprise Guide statistical program. The results are findings that have to some extent confirmed our assumptions about the impact of selected factors on health, although some of them have not been shown to the extent we expected.
