| Annotation | This cross-sectional US study examined whether depressive symptomatology is a third fundamental component of the structure of self-rated health, in addition to two other components (physical disease and functional disability) for older people with stroke living in the community. 591 older people with stroke were identified from the 1993 Asset and Health Dynamics among the Oldest-Old (AHEAD) national survey of community-dwelling older people. It was concluded that greater attention should be given to the theoretical structure of self-rated health of older adults with stroke, particularly the significant impact of depression on their self-rated health.
