Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the effect of health factors on memory performance in a population-based sample of 679 older people (mean age=69.2 years). Both subjective and objective indices of health were used as predictor variables. Memory performance was measured with an immediate recall test and a delayed recall test. Some of the objective health indices were correlated with performance on the memory tasks, but regression analysis showed that they hardly had a unique effect on memory performance. Health factors have only a weak relationship with memory performance in older adults.
