These same skill did not seem to increase even with a full set of Stamina gear. I found similar changes with stamina based skills when wearing stamina focused gear, but it was not always true.

You want the actual multipliers? Not sure what the formulas are, but I suspect they're largely similar to (base damage of spell) * (1+ magicka/X)
Damage-dealing skills that use magicka as a resource scale damage based on magicka pool. Same with stamina pool, so your class skills (which all use magicka) won't increase with a full set of stam gear, but your weapon attacks (non-stave weapon skills) *should* increase with stamina, provided you're not at the softcap.
AFAIK, health doesn't affect any skills except the end result of those that heal a percentage of health.
