| Age group | Children (7-12 years) | Adolescents (13-17 years) | Middle-aged adults (41-60 years) | Older adults (61-80 years) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Adolescents (13-17 years) | -2.590 (p<0.001) | |||
| Young adults (18-40 years) | -0.954 (p<0.05) | 1.636 (p<0.001) | ||
| Middle-aged adults (41-60 years) | -0.785 (p<0.05) | 1.806 (p<0.001) | 0.169 (p=0.665) | |
