Abstract

The number of medical information consumed and learned by population of the Russian Federation increased significantly during recent time. The sociological randomized sampled survey was carried out in 2014-2015 in Rostov-on-Don. The sample included 459 adult residents of Rostov-on-Don. The survey established that 65% of respondents never ponder over why they fall ill or they think of their own health only in case of manifestation of certain symptoms. Furthermore, the relationships are analyzed between level of medicalization and status of respondents in gender, educational and self-preserving aspects. Also cumulated morbidity was measured. The parallel application of parametric and non-parametric Student and Pearson criteria permitted to establish absence of a valuable relationship between levels of morbidity and content of medical knowledge obtained within the framework of spontaneous medicalization.
