The subjects were 223 adults（ 108 men and 115 women）, with a mean age of 70.3±4.6 years, residing in Nagasaki Prefecture, Japan. The bite force was measured using with a commercial Occlusal Force-Meter GM10. Health-related QOL was measured using the SF-36 Health Survey（ SF-36）. SF-36 questionnaire responses were mapped to eight domains. The bite force in women was significantly lower than in men, and it was negatively associated with age. In addition, the bite force was positively associated with SF-36 subscales in men. The gender difference might be due to any other confounding factors. Further studies are needed to clarify the association between bite force and QOL., 保健学研究, 23(2), pp.29-34; 2011},
