Association Between Having a Health Assessment Tool (HAT) Score Above the Age- and Sex-Specific Median (Dependent Variable) and Having Good Scores on Indicators of Health Not Included in HAT (Independent Variables)

Model 1 Model 2
OR (95% CI) OR (95% CI)
Balance (continuous variable in seconds) 1.10* (1.00–1.20) 1.08 (0.99–1.19)
Higher grip strength (continuous variable in kilogram) 0.89* (0.81–0.98) 0.91 (0.83–1.00)
Interaction between balance and grip strength 1.15** (1.05–1.25) 1.15** (1.05–1.25)
Chair-stand test (passed vs not passed) 3.03*** (2.42–3.78) 2.62*** (2.08–3.31)
Self-rated health (very good/excellent vs poor/fair/good) 2.38*** (1.93–2.95) 2.19*** (1.77–2.71)

Note: Results expressed as odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Model 1: adjusted for the rest of the physical tests and self-rated health. Model 2: adjusted for the same variables as Model 1 + education level, financial level, civil status, smoking habits, alcohol consumption, and physical activity.
