Development and psychometric properties of the Maastricht Personal Autonomy Questionnaire (MPAQ) in older adults with a chronic physical illness
The relative contributions of hostility and depressive symptoms to the income gradient in hospital-based incidence of ischaemic heart disease: 12-Year follow-up findings from the GLOBE study
Chronic Disease and Lifestyle Transitions: Results From the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam
Health promotion may benefit from these findings in a way that patient groups at risk for not initiating healthy lifestyles might be identified sooner
Impact of depression on disablement in late middle aged and older persons: Results from the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam
The role of psychosocial factors in explaining socio-economic differences in mobility decline in a chronically ill population: Results from the GLOBE study
Socioeconomic inequalities in mobility decline in chronic disease groups (asthma/COPD, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, low back pain): Only a minor role for disease severity and comorbidity
Objective: This study examined the association between socioeconomic status and mobility decline and whether this could be explained by disease severity and comorbidity in four different chronic disease groups (asthma/COPD, heart disease, diabetes mellitus, and low back pain). It is not clear, whether the adverse course of physical functioning in persons with a low socioeconomic status can be explained by a higher prevalence of more severe diseas…
The Nottingham Health Profile: Score distribution, internal consistency and validity in asthma and COPD patients
Social Network, Social Support, and Loneliness in Older Persons with Different Chronic Diseases
Objectives:This study examines whether patterns of social network size, functional social support, and loneliness are different for older persons with different types of chronic diseases. Methods:In a community-based sample of 2,788 men and women age 55 to 85 years participating in the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam, chronic diseases status, social network size, support exchanges, and loneliness were assessed. Results:Social network size and …
Self-reports and general practitioner information on the presence of chronic diseases in community dwelling elderly
General Practitioners?? Uncertainty, Risk Preference, and Use of Laboratory Tests
In this effort to explore the relationships between risk-taking attitude and laboratory test use, three different measures of risk-taking attitudes were obtained in a cross-sectional study of 75 Dutch general practitioners. The measures used were based on a Dutch scale by Grol et al. (dealing with risks and self-reproach in missing serious and in self-limiting diseases), measures from the prospect theory (risk preference in face of gain and in fa…
Laboratory Test Form Design Influences Test Ordering by General Practitioners in the Netherlands
The effect of listing fewer laboratory tests on the test request form on test-ordering behavior of a group of 47 Dutch general practitioners was studied. The number of laboratory tests ordered by this experimental group during a 12-month period was recorded. The usual, old standard form was used by a control group of 28 general practitioners in a different region. After having used the old, standard form with 178 tests for 5 months, the experimen…
