Researchers Ask Young, Middle-Aged, and Older Adults to Rate Their

researchers ask young, middle-aged, and older adults to rate their own health, what age pattern do they find?

A) The percentage who describe their health as excellent or very good declines rapidly with age; by age 65, only a very small number choose such a description.
B) The percentage who describe their health as excellent declines with age, but 2/3 of those over 75 still rate their health as at least good.
C) There is little change with age in the percentage who describe their health as excellent, but a substantial rise among those over 65 who describe their health as poor.
D) Self-rated health remains essentially constant over age, because older adults adjust their standards of "excellent" or "good."
