Abstract | Background: The distributional effects of cognitive impairment on inequalities in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are not well studied. This relationship has not been studied in any Australian health inequality literature. Therefore, this study aims to examine how cognitive impairment affects the distribution of HRQoL across various socio-economic classes amongst older Australians. |
Keywords | Mild cognitive impairment; Health-related quality of life (HRQoL); Socioeconomic inequality; Older Australians |
