In addition, physiological dimension was associated with education level and occupation. Social functioning was associated with marital status. Somatic symptoms were associated with physiological dimension and self-concept. Anxiety and depression were associated with physiological dimension, self-concept, and role function. Social dysfunction was associated with self-concept and role function. Satisfaction with life did not have any significant relationship with demographic variables, RAM, and GHQ.
