A 10-year follow-up of 297 survivors from a community study of the aged found (a) there was little or no decline in social and economic function and only moderate declines in mental, physical, and activities-ofdaily-living function; (b) demographic and socioeconomic characteristics were usually strong predictors of decline in function; and (c) impairments in one type of function often predicted greater decline in other types of function. Mental impairment was an especially strong predictor of social decline, but notvice versa.
