While SRH improved in the male subgroup in cluster 1, SRH did not change significantly in male members of clusters 2, 3 and 4 and in none of the female subgroups.
No significant results were found for clusters 2 and 4. SRH improved from T1 to T2 in clusters 1, 2 and 3 (Table 5), but these changes were not statistically significant.
In a study on adolescents in the USA [ 51], SRH was used as an explanatory variable and perceived satisfaction as an outcome, and poor SRH was significantly found to reduce life satisfaction, regardless of race or gender.
11 The 15 SRH studies were conducted in 10 different countries with populations affected by conflict.
There are some results that indicate that LoC is associated with chronic diseases [ 25- 27], SRH [ 28, 29], and mortality [ 30, 31].
During the first year after diagnosis of T2DM SRH improves for many patients, and their perceived illness burden seems to be associated with the change in SRH.
To ensure models remained parsimonious [ 32] SRH items were not identified as categorical in the separate interaction models allowing for an interaction effect to be identified.
In the study by Idler et al. [ 11], SRH was a significant predictor of mortality, even when physical health status was taken into consideration.
At T2 SRH was predicted by the number of diagnoses and insulin-dependence as well as by the FH subscales mobility and pain/discomfort.
When global SRH was placed in the same models as age-comparative (model 4) and self-comparative (model 5) SRH the relationship between 'worse' age-comparative and 'not as good' self-comparative ratings and mortality became non-significant.
The 2006 SRH policy also permits abortions when the woman's life is endangered, and in cases of foetal anomaly, rape, incest, cervical cancer, or upon a request from an HIV positive woman [ 38].
