Social determinants of health are the conditions where people live, learn, work and age that affect their health and risks. A concept map organizes them into main domains: economic stability, education, neighborhood and built environment, health and healthcare, and social and community context. Each domain then branches into specific factors, such as income, housing quality or access to clinics.

Economic stability: income, employment, debt and food security
Education: attainment, literacy and health knowledge
Neighborhood: housing, air quality and safe spaces
Healthcare access: insurance, clinic distance and language support
Social context: discrimination, social support and community ties

Use the map to revise the domains and trace how one factor leads to outcomes. Create your own version with CogniGuide from your notes to match your course.

SDOH Concept Map Questions

Answers about social determinants and building your own map.

What are the main social determinants of health?

Most frameworks group them into economic stability, education, neighborhood and built environment, health and healthcare, and social and community context. These domains shape access to resources and exposure to risks.

Why do social determinants matter for health?

They explain much of the differences in health between groups, even when medical care is equal. Factors like income, housing and education affect stress, nutrition and the ability to get care.

Which files can I use to make my own map?

You can upload PDF, Word (DOCX), PowerPoint (PPTX), text or Markdown files, or images. You can also type a topic and the AI will build a map from it.

Is it free to create a map and turn it into a quiz?

There is a free plan with 5 creations a week and no payment needed. Paid plans raise the limits. Maps can be turned into a quiz to test yourself.
