Note. −2LL = −2 log likelihood, df = degrees of freedom, AIC = Akaike’s information criterion, BIC = Bayesian information criterion.

aAdjusted for age, education, net wealth quintile, tenure status, smoking, and physical activity from Wave 1 and time-varying variables of limiting long-term illness, depression, and working/doing voluntary work from Waves 1 to 6.

bThe full level-to-change model fit: −2LL = 140,599.01, df = 469, AIC = 282,136, BIC = 285,202 for men; −2LL = 176,112.58, df = 469, AIC = 353,163, BIC = 356,315 for women.

cThe full change-to-change model fit: −2LL = 140,596.49, df = 473, AIC = 282,139, BIC = 285,231 for men; −2LL = 176,095.99, df = 473, AIC = 353,138, BIC = 356,316 for women.
