چکیده

In every age group, women were more likely to have serious psychological distress than men. Among all adults, as income increased, the percentage with serious psychological distress decreased. Adults aged 18-64 with serious psychological distress were more likely to be uninsured (30.4%) than adults without serious psychological distress (20.5%). More than one-quarter of adults aged 65 and over with serious psychological distress (27.3%) had limitations in activities of daily living. Adults with serious psychological distress were more likely to have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, heart disease, and diabetes than adults without serious psychological distress.
