Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether positive affect has an independent effect on functional status, mobility, and survival in an older Mexican American sample. DESIGN: A 2‐year prospective cohort study. SETTING: Five Southwestern states: Texas, California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado. PARTICPANTS: A population‐based sample of 2282 Mexican Americans aged 65 to 99 who reported no functional limitations at baseline interview. MEASUREMENTS: In‐home interviews in 1993–1994 and again in 1995–1996 assessed demographic variables, health conditions, activities of daily living, performance‐based mobility, survival, and a rating of positive and negative affect. RESULTS: In multivariate analyses, there was a direct relationship between positive affect scores at baseline and mobility, functional status, and survival 2 years later, controlling for functional status, sociodemographic variables, major chronic conditions, body mass index (BMI), smoking status, drinking status, and negative affect at baseline. Subjects with high positive affect were half as likely (odds ratio (OR) = 0.48; 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.29, 0.93) to become disabled in activities of daily living (ADLs), two‐thirds as likely (OR = 0.64; 95% CI 0.51, 0.79) to have a slow walking speed, and half as likely (OR 0.53; 95% CI 0.30, 0.93) to have died during the 2‐year follow‐up compared to those with lower positive affect scores. CONCLUSIONS: Our results support the concept that positive affect, or emotional well‐being, is different from the absence of depression or negative affect. Positive affect seems to protect individuals against physical declines in old age. J Am Geriatr Soc 48: 473–478, 2000 .

  • In a longitudinal study of 2,282 older Mexican Americans, those who reported high positive affect, compared with those with less positive affect, were half as likely to have become disabled or to have died during a two-year follow-up.

    “in a longitudinal study of 2,282 older Mexican Americans, those who reported high positive affect, compared with those with less positive affect, were half as likely to have become disabled or to have died during a two-year follow-up (Ostir, Markides, Black, & Goodwin, 2000).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
