相关的库克混合泳敌意量表（Ho）得分与社会人口变量在全国调查的2,536名成年人。多元回归模型显示，Ho评分与种族相关（p<. 0001）、受教育年限（p<. 001）、性别（p<. 001），职业（p=. 0002），和收入（p=. 0025）。非白人、男性和社会经济地位较低的人得分较高。有一个种族×收入的相互作用（p<。005），因此，种族之间最大的Ho得分差异发生在收入最低的人群中。年龄与Ho评分呈曲线相关：最年轻和最年长年龄组的评分高于中年组（p=. 025）。婚姻状况与Ho评分无关。这些敌意模式与人口健康指标的模式相似。由于敌意已被发现与不利的健康结果有关，敌意可能会导致健康状况的一些人口统计学差异。然而，有人认为，研究必须首先确定人口各亚群中生育与健康关系的普遍性。
Correlated Cook-Medley Hostility Scale (Ho) scores with sociodemographic variables in a national survey of 2,536 adults. Multiple regression models revealed that Ho scores were associated with race (p<. 0001), years of education (p<. 001), sex (p<. 001), occupation (p=. 0002), and income (p=. 0025). Higher scores were found in non-Whites, men, and those of lower socioeconomic status. There was a Race× Income interaction (p<. 005), such that the greatest Ho score differences between the races occurred among those with the lowest incomes. Age was related to Ho scores in a curvilinear fashion: higher scores in the youngest and oldest age groups than in the middle-aged groups (p=. 025). Marital status was unrelated to Ho scores. These patterns of hostility are similar to the patterns of health indicators in the population. Because hostility has been found to be associated with adverse health outcomes, hostility may account for some of the demographic variations in health status. However, it is argued that research must first establish the generality of the hostility-health relationship across subgroups of the population.
