Note. Numbers in the table represent parameter estimates (95% confidence intervals) for each SF‐36 scale in the model. BP = bodily pain; GH = general health; MH = mental health; PF = physical functioning; RE = role emotional; RP = role physical; SF = social functioning; SF‐36 = Medical Outcome Study Short‐Form 36‐item health survey; VT = vitality.
