Note. CI = confidence interval. Scores derived from the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form Health Survey version 2; the range is 0–100, with higher scores indicating better health. Subscale scores were analyzed separately for 1033 complete responses. In both models we adjusted for the corresponding baseline mean score, gender, age, education, household structure, housing status, building type, and country of birth. For each variable, the control group was the reference group (b = 0.00).
