The Effects of Depression, Health Status, and Stressful Life-Events on Self-Reported Memory Problems among Aged Blacks

A sample of 1,250 Black elderly individuals was examined to assess the prevalence and correlates of self-reported memory problems. More than 48.3 percent of the sample reported poor memory and forgetfulness as either a very (17.9%) or somewhat (30.4%) serious problem. Multivariate logistic regression was employed to detect the significant predictors of self-reported memory problems. According to our data, those Black elderly individuals who have hearing problems, who report a higher number of stressful life-events, who experience a higher level of depression, and who suffer from poorer health are more likely to complain of memory problems.
