Correlations among Study Variables

	(2)	(3)	(4)	(5)	(6)	(7)	(8)	(9)	(10)	(11)	(12)	(13)	(14)
(1) Mortality (Deceased=1)	.20	−.06	−.11	.00	.00	.00	−.05	.11	−.15	−.02	−.03	−.02	.07
(2) Age		−.03	−.15	.01	−.03	.03	−.15	.16	−.10	.07	.05	−.09	.03
(3) Gender (Female=1)			−.06	.00	.03	−.02	−.04	.11	−.02	.07	−.04	−.06	−.12

(6) Living as married						−.05	.00	−.04	−.03	−.04	−.05	.00	−.05
(7) Intimate relationship							−.04	.00	.05	.00	−.03	−.06	−.11
(8) BMI								.08	−.17	.03	.00	.05	.03
(9) # Medications									−.30	.02	.05	.03	−.01
(10) Self-rated health										−.01	.08	.09	−.05
(11) # Close family relationships/relatives											.29	.08	−.08
(12) # Close friendships												.15	−.08
(13) Positive RQ w/spouse or partner													−.18
(14) Negative RQ w/spouse or partner

Note: RQ=relationship quality; for continuous variables, higher scores indicate being older, more educated, higher BMI, more medication use, better self-reported health, larger network of family members and friends, higher positive relationship quality, and higher negative relationship quality.

Note: |r| > .05 were significant at the .05 level.
