  1. Note. HRS and NHATS datasets were analyzed in separate multilevel analyses. Additionally, the association of depressive symptoms (predictor) with self-rated memory (Model 1) and perceived 2-year memory decline (Model 2) were analyzed separately. Results from analyses with NHATS and HRS data are presented together for ease of comparison. All models were analyzed separately. HS = High School; WP = baseline within person. **p ≤ .001. *p ≤ .01
