SE=Standard errors, adjusted for clustering in states. ADL = activity of daily living; IADL = instrumental ADL; HCBS=Home and community-based services. The analytic data include18,880 observations represented by 6,535 respondents who lived in 41 states.
The GINI coefficient. The effect is expressed in terms of a one standard deviation unit of change.
