GH perceptions are essential for several reasons. Firstly, they often predict clinical outcomes and mortality. Individuals with poor health perceptions may have higher morbidity and mortality rates. Secondly, GH perceptions can reflect the burden of disease in a population, providing insights into the prevalence of chronic conditions and the effectiveness of healthcare systems. Lastly, understanding GH helps in identifying health disparities among different demographic groups, thus guiding targeted public health strategies.
