N = 1800. β = standardized slope coefficient.

Bolded p values indicate significance at the .05 level. Model 1 was an unadjusted model with dispositional gratitude as the only predictor without entering any other covariates. Model 2 additionally controlled for age, sex, education attainment, household income, race, and the use of hyperlipidemic agent medication. Model 3 additionally controlled for dispositional optimism, agreeableness, conscientiousness, extraversion, emotional stability, and openness to experience.
