    1. while 124 participants (7.2%)rated their mental health as fair or poor and 620 participants (32.3%) reported depressivesymptoms.

      This sentence is very interesting to me, because it says that only 7.2% of the group rated their mental health as fair/poor, but 32.3% say that they have depressive symptoms. This suggests that many participants experiencing depressive symptoms may not interpret or label their overall mental health as being “poor.” This tells me that the elderly population either does not want to discuss mental health issues, or is not properly informed about mental health.
