Note(s): FE-IV estimates after excluding 10% of observations with within-hand grip strength differences between 18 and 20 kg. 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
