Associations Between the Diverse Aspects of Psychological Frailty and Health‐Related Outcomes in Community‐Dwelling Older Adults: A Cross‐Sectional Study

These findings highlight the heterogeneous nature of PsF and underscore the need for nuanced assessments to inform targeted prevention and intervention strategies.
