Note: Values in parentheses are standard deviations. NA indicates that the value was not applicable. Health was a self-rating on a scale from 1 for “excellent” to 5 for “poor”. MMSE is the Mini Mental State Exam (Folstein, Folstein & McHugh, 1975). Scaled scores are adjusted for age and have means of 10 and standard deviations of 3 in the nationally representative normative samples (Wechsler, 1997a, 1997b). The final column contains Cohen’s d estimates of effect size.
