Document: Together, these three variables can form a reasonably good indicator of late life physiological decline requiring the assistance of others. Table 3 presents data on these variables for similarly economically developed European countries 2 arranged in descending order on life expectancy at 65. Notably, the top 3 countries in terms of life expectancy score highest on the elderly frailty index, constituting the average of our three indicators of assistance need. The correlation between our frailty index and life expectancy at 65 is positive and statistically significant (r = 0.631, p = 0.016).
