Note(s): FE-IV estimates using alternative inclusion thresholds for within-hand grip strength difference. Control variables include age, age squared, age cubed, education, marital status, income, body weight, IADL, ADL, cognitive functions, country, and wave dummies. Standard errors clustered at the individual level are shown in parentheses

***p < 0.01, **p < 0.05, *p < 0.1
