| Activity | Unadjusted | Adjusted for age, sex, education, and baseline level of activity | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| β c (95% CI) | p | β c (95% CI) | p | |

| Mental | −0.31 (−0.58, −0.04) | 0.032 | −0.30 (−0.58, −0.02) | 0.046 |
| Physical | −0.21 (−0.54, 0.11) | 0.207 | −0.07 (−0.44, 0.29) | 0.700 |
| Total | −0.73 (−1.35, −0.11) | 0.028 | −0.57 (−1.25, 0.11) | 0.113 |
Abbreviation: CI, confidence interval.
a
Hearing loss defined as the four-frequency (0.5, 1, 2, and 4 kHz) pure-tone average threshold in the better ear.
b
Community Healthy Activities Model Program for Seniors questionnaire.
c
β indicates the change in the number of hours of activity per 1 dB worsening in the better-ear pure-tone average.
