  1. t0 = 2008/09 t1 = 2012/13
  2. Models adjusted for age (years); quadratic age; wealth group at t0; changes in wealth group t0 to t1; working status t0 to t1; household access to a car at t0 and t1; problems with Activities of Daily Living at t0 and t1; problems with mobility at t0 and t1; moving house between t0 and t1; and physical activity between t0 and t1
  3. Model 1: Unadjusted cross-sectional associations at follow up (t1; 2012/13)
  4. Model 2: Fully adjusted cross-sectional associations at follow up (t1; 2012/13)
