Notes: 95% CI = 95% confidence interval for estimates; MCI = mild cognitive impairment; OR = odds ratio. N = 311 persons, 4,245 observations used in multilevel modeling models. MCI status: 1 = MCI, 0 = non-MCI. Model 1 is the model without any covariates; Model 2 included sex, age, race/ethnicity, education (years), employment, marital status, and living status as covariates. Poisson estimate was used for count outcomes.
aLogistic estimate was used for the binary outcome (predicting the probability of 1 = any negative social interactions that day vs no negative social interactions).
