Sažetak
The aim of this study was to investigate the associations of psychological, functional, cognitive and biological factors with age changes in self-perceived health of old people. Subjects were 411 residents of 11 retirement homes in Zagreb, Croatia, 104 men, 307 women, aged 56–96 years (average 79) at baseline, ambulatory and not diagnosed with dementia. Variables were measured individually, in the institution, by trained interviewers, at baseline and at 2 years follow-up: sociodemographic, self-perceived health, functional ability, cognitive function, depression and social participation. Biochemical variables were measured from the vein blood sample, collected at baseline. Functional ability, depression and certain biochemical factors (lipoprotein levels, etc.) were significantly associated with self- perceived health. Strength of associations differed cross-sectionally and longitudinally. The implications of these findings are in better understanding of factors that contribute to survival in old age, as the most strongly associated with self-perceived health are to a certain degree modifiable.
