Table 2 provides descriptive statistics of the current interview findings, by age category. Although gender differences across the age groups were not statistically significant (FDR-adjusted p = 0.11), the proportion of males increased from about half of the youngest age group to about two-thirds of the oldest age group. There were no significant differences in educational achievement between the four groups, with 30% holding a high school diploma and an additional 61% reporting at least one year of education beyond that point. Interestingly, although the number of specific medical conditions experienced rose significantly from an average of 1 to 1.8 between the youngest and oldest age categories (FDR-adjusted p < 0.001), self-ratings of overall physical health did not differ significantly, with 62% of the sample reporting good or excellent health (FDR-adjusted p > 0.99). In particular, endorsements of high blood pressure, cancer, and heart disease increased with age (all with FDR-adjusted p < 0.01). There were also no age-related differences in their self-reported global mental health or memory compared with same age peers (FDR-adjusted p > 0.05). Over 70% endorsed
