Using propensity score matching, matching participants based on their SES, we also consistently found evidence of the relationship. Finally, using fixed-effects regression which takes account of all time-invariant factors (which include multiple aspects of SES) even if unobserved, we also found no ...
neuroticism and extraversion explained by considering all SNPs on currently- used genome-wide arrays simultaneously.43,45 The basic idea of this method is to accumulate the effects of all the associated SNPs that might be too small to reach the stringent significance level in single SNP analyses....
Given its potential physical health and mental wellbeing benefits —active older adults have a lower risk of falls, cardiovascular disease and obesity-related conditions, for example— it is increasingly promoted as part of “active ageing” agendas. Relationships between environment and wellbeing are...
The strongest effects of the welfare state are in the domain of pension benefits (b = 0.439 for life expectancy at birth, p < 0.001; b = 0.199 for life expectancy at age 65, p < 0.001). Models that lag the measures of social policy by ten years produce similar results, suggesting ...
(UCL Institute of Neurology and Max Planck UCL Centre for Computational Psychiatry and Ageing Research). "The effects we saw in the experiment may be due to dopamine decline, since age was associated with only one type of risk taking and mirrored the known effects of dopamine drugs on ...
Given that more than one billion people worldwide are registered disabled and disability has become part of the human condition, almost everyone will experience long- or short-term impairment at some point during their lifetime [1]. As a result of ageing, increasing survivorship from disease, an...
The elderly and patients with several comorbidities experience more severe cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) than healthy patients without underlying medical conditions. However, it is unclear why these people are prone to developing alveolar
Introduction Although traditional research has mostly focused on the protective effects of high socioeconomic status (SES) on population health [1–3], recent research has documented poor mental health among Blacks of high SES [4,5]. While state-of-the-art studies have shown that SES indicators...
