“…Some studies have noted that there is a correlation between older age and increased medication-related problems (Beckman, Parker, & Thorslund, 2005;Cárdenas-Valladolid et al, 2010); however, this is not always the case (May et al, 2010;Roth & Ivey, 2005). Similarly, other select variables and medication-related problems have been shown to be related, such as gender (Barat et al, 2001;Beckman et al, 2005;Tordoff, Bagge, et al, 2010), educational background (Barat et al, 2001;Gray, Mahoney, & Blough, 2001;Rich, Gray, Beckham, Wittenberg, & Luther, 1996), living arrangement (Barat et al, 2001;Beckman et al, 2005;Lam et al, 2011), economic status (Haider, Johnell, Thorslund, & Fastbom, 2008;Stuart & Briesacher, 2002; The Ohio Department of Aging, The Aging Network, & The Ohio State University, 2007), vision (Beckman et al, 2005;Ferrario, 2008;Murray et al, 2004), hearing (Cárdenas-Valladolid et al, 2010;Ferrario, 2008;Murray et al, 2004), and depression (Barat et al, 2001;DiMatteo, Lepper, & Croghan, 2000;May et al, 2010).…”
