СКАЧАТЬ the emergence of clinical outcomes, treatment options targeting the aforementioned psychological, behavioral, cognitive, and social domains could be complimentary and indeed facilitative towards improving efficacy and compliance to low-dose pharmacotherapy aimed at proactive prevention instead of reactive prescription.

      Future Directions

      The AL model has received compelling empirical support specifically because it is a comprehensive tool effective at detecting and predicting numerous health outcomes. In this chapter, we have explored the diverse antecedents and consequences of increased AL that are influenced by sex and gender throughout the life cycle. Such interactions force us to reconsider how dichotomous and dimensional variables coexist to affect a wide spectrum of behaviors, cognitions, and lifelong propensities of health and well-being. In an effort to promote person-centered approaches, we have outlined a simple formula to calculate a clinical AL index that could be effectively combined with other interdisciplinary methods. While treatment options are needed, an AL index can guide medical professionals towards preventive strategies that respect vast inter-and intraindividual differences.
