This document presents a concept map that identifies three pathways by which medication non-compliance can be conceptualized from a social perspective. All three pathways begin with education policy and its impact. One pathway shows how low education quality can lead to low health literacy and difficulty following medication instructions. Another pathway shows how high dropout rates from underfunded schools can result in low-wage jobs without insurance, reducing ability to afford or access medication. A third pathway notes self-efficacy and unwanted side effects can influence the relationship between ability to comply with a medication regimen and actual compliance. The document concludes by outlining interventions that could help address medication non-compliance at various points in the concept map.
