Age-related changes in factors associated with self-rated health in Swedish older adults– findings from the Gothenburg H70 study cohort born 1930
The proportion of poor SRH decreases with age despite a higher frequency of somatic health conditions. Associated factors varied across ages, indicating that physical factors more strongly influence SRH in younger-old adults, while psychosocial factors have a greater impact on SRH in older-old adults.
