    <div><p>Objectives</p><p>This study explored how adult social class and social mobility between parental and own adult social class is related to psychiatric disorder.</p> <p>Material and Methods</p><p>In this prospective cohort study, over 1 million employed Swedes born in 1949-1959 were included. Information on parental class (1960) and own mid-life social class (1980 and 1990) was retrieved from the censuses and categorised as High Non-manual, Low Non-manual, High Manual, Low Manual and Self-employed. After identifying adult class, individuals were followed for psychiatric disorder by first admission of schizophrenia, alcoholism and drug dependency, affective psychosis and neurosis or personality disorder (N=24 659) from the Swedish Patient Register. We used Poisson regression analysis to estimate first admission rates of psychiatric disorder per 100 000 person-years and relative risks (RR) by adult social class (treated as a time-varying covariate). The RRs of psychiatric disorder among the Non-manual and Manual classes were also estimated by magnitude of social mobility.</p> <p>Results</p><p>The rate of psychiatric disorder was significantly higher among individuals belonging to the Low manual class as compared with the High Non-manual class. Compared to High Non-manual class, the risk for psychiatric disorder ranged from 2.07 (Low Manual class) to 1.38 (Low Non-manual class). Parental class had a minor impact on these estimates. Among the Non-manual and Manual classes, downward mobility was associated with increased risk and upward mobility with decreased risk of psychiatric disorder. In addition, downward mobility was inversely associated with the magnitude of social mobility, independent of parental class.</p> <p>Conclusions</p><p>Independently of parental social class, the risk of psychiatric disorder increases with increased downward social mobility and decreases with increased upward mobility.</p> </div

    <p><sup>a</sup>Attendance at cervical screening is calculated according to the recommendations of the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare. The time in mean years delay for all visits per women was calculated from the completion of the third year at ages 23 to 50 years and the fifth 5 year at ages 51 to 60 years. Non-attendance to screening does not necessarily mean that women have never participated. Non-attendance should be interpreted as non-adherence to Swedish screening recommendations.</p><p>Description of attendance at cervical screening of FGD-participants based on information from National Quality Register of Cervical Cancer Prevention (NQRCP)<a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0107624#t002fn001" target="_blank"><sup>a</sup></a>.</p
