For those mental health conditions endorsed by less than 10 people we did not run linear regression models. The models are adjusted for age, sex, education, marital status, and working status. AARC-gains, Awareness of positive age-related changes; AARC-losses, Awareness of negative age-related changes; CI, Confidence Interval. Cancer in full remission means no evidence of disease. Psychotic disorders include schizophrenia. *p < 0.05. **p < 0.01. ***p < 0.001.
