In addition to the identification of groups at higher risk for the disorders, demographic information may give us some leads as to the etiological factors in these disorders. The demographic variables of sex, race, age, education, occupation, income, marital status, religion, geographical area of residence, and size of town or city are related to some of the scales. Positive affect is related directly to self-ratings of health; dysphoric affect was related negatively to these ratings.
