  1. Items with negative factor loadings represent those SF-12v2 questions on which higher scores indicated poorer health status whereas items with positive factor loadings represent the SF-12v2 questions on which higher scores reflected better health status
  2. ˠ All factor loadings were significant at α = 0.05
