Mean (SD) at baseline, crude mean change, and adjusted mean difference in change* (95% confidence intervals) in mental and physical functioning

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No | Mean at baseline | Crude change* | Adjusted difference in change | Mean at baseline | Crude change | Adjusted difference in change* | |
| *Mean adjusted difference in functioning change between those who continue to work (reference group = 0) and those who retire, adjusted for age in single years, duration of follow up, and baseline functioning. The crude mean difference in change can be obtained by subtracting the mean change of those who continue to work from those who had retired; for example, for mental functioning among men the crude difference in change is 1.56- (−0.88) = 2.44. | |||||||
