New Beneficiary Data System Resource Report Resource Website |
New Beneficiary Data System (RRID:SCR_013320) | NBDS | data or information resource, data set | Data set of extensive information on the changing circumstances of aged and disabled beneficiaries - Living, noninstitutionalized population of the continental United States from the Social Security Administration''''s Master Benefit Record who were new recipients of Social Security benefits (first payment in mid-1980 through mid-1981) or who had established entitlement to Medicare and were eligible for, but had not received, Social Security benefits as of July 1982. Based initially on a national cross-sectional survey of new beneficiaries in 1982, the original data base was expanded with information from administrative records and a second round of interviews in 1991. Variables measured in the original New Beneficiary Survey (NBS) include demographic characteristics; employment, marital, and childbearing histories; household composition; health; income and assets; program knowledge; and information about the spouses of married respondents. The 1991 New Beneficiary Follow-up (NBF) updated marital status, household composition, and the economic profile and contains additional sections on family contacts, postretirement employment, effects of widowhood and divorce, major reasons for changes in economic status, a more extensive section on health, and information on household moves and reasons for moving. Disabled-worker beneficiaries were also asked about their efforts to return to work, experiences with rehabilitation services, and knowledge of SSA work incentive provisions. The NBDS also links to administrative files of yearly covered earnings from 1951 to 1992, Medicare expenditures from 1984 to 1999, whether an SSI application has ever been made and payment status at five points in time, and dates of death as of spring 2001. For studies of health, the Medicare expenditure variables include inpatient hospital costs, outpatient hospital costs, home health care costs, and physicians'''' charges. The survey data cover functional capacity including ADLs and IADLs. For studies of work in retirement, the survey includes yearly information on extent of work, characteristics of the current or last job, and reasons for working or not working. No other data set has such detailed baseline survey data of a population immediately after retirement or disability, enhanced with subsequent measures over an extended period of time. The data are publicly available through NACDA and the Social Security Administration Website. * Dates of Study: 1982-1991 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 18,136 (NBS 1981) ** 12,677 (NBF 1991) Links: * 1982 (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/08510 * 1991 (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06118 | late adult human, employment, marital status, childbearing, household composition, health, income, asset, program knowledge, spouse, survey, demographic, government service, job history, occupation, public program, social security, welfare service, longitudinal, health care, interview, questionnaire, insurance coverage, financial resource, family support, non-institutionalized, beneficiary, death, economic, health care access, health care service, health expenditure, health insurance, health services utilization, health status, medical care, medicare, social support |

International Data Base Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
International Data Base (RRID:SCR_013139) | IDB | data or information resource, data set | A computerized data set of demographic, economic and social data for 227 countries of the world. Information presented includes population, health, nutrition, mortality, fertility, family planning and contraceptive use, literacy, housing, and economic activity data. Tabular data are broken down by such variables as age, sex, and urban/rural residence. Data are organized as a series of statistical tables identified by country and table number. Each record consists of the data values associated with a single row of a given table. There are 105 tables with data for 208 countries. The second file is a note file, containing text of notes associated with various tables. These notes provide information such as definitions of categories (i.e. urban/rural) and how various values were calculated. The IDB was created in the U.S. Census Bureau''s International Programs Center (IPC) to help IPC staff meet the needs of organizations that sponsor IPC research. The IDB provides quick access to specialized information, with emphasis on demographic measures, for individual countries or groups of countries. The IDB combines data from country sources (typically censuses and surveys) with IPC estimates and projections to provide information dating back as far as 1950 and as far ahead as 2050. Because the IDB is maintained as a research tool for IPC sponsor requirements, the amount of information available may vary by country. As funding and research activity permit, the IPC updates and expands the data base content. Types of data include: * Population by age and sex * Vital rates, infant mortality, and life tables * Fertility and child survivorship * Migration * Marital status * Family planning Data characteristics: * Temporal: Selected years, 1950present, projected demographic data to 2050. * Spatial: 227 countries and areas. * Resolution: National population, selected data by urban/rural * residence, selected data by age and sex.

Aging Status and Sense of Control (ASOC) Resource Report Resource Website |
Aging Status and Sense of Control (ASOC) (RRID:SCR_013500) | ASOC | data or information resource, data set | A dataset generated longitudinal study that aims to explain the relationship between age and changes in the sense of control over one''''s life, over two follow-up periods. The main hypotheses are (a) over a period of time, the sense of control declines by an amount that increases with age; (b) the change in sense of control reflects an underlying change in biosocial function, which accelerates with age; (c) higher social status slows the decline in the sense of control, possibly by preserving biosocial function; and (d) changes in biosocial function and in the sense of control have deviation-amplifying reciprocal effects that accelerate age-dependent changes in the sense of control. This was a three-wave panel survey with fixed 3-year intervals and repeated assessments of the same variables. Questionnaire topics focused on: physical health (subjective health; activities of daily living; height and weight; health conditions; expected personal longevity); health behavior (exercise, smoking, diet, alcohol use); use of medical services (medical insurance coverage, prescription drug use); work status (current employment status; title of current job or occupation and job description; types of work, tasks, or activities; description of work or daily activity and interactions; supervisory status; management position and level; work history); sense of controlextent of agreement or disagreement with planning and responsibility versus luck and bad breaks; sense of victimhood versus control; social support and participation; personal and household demographics; marital and family relations; socioeconomic status; history of adversity. * Dates of Study: 1994-2001 * Sample Size: 2,593 (Waves 1-2); 1.144 (Wave 3) * Study Features: Longitudinal Data Archives: http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/issr/da/da_catalog/da_catalog_titleRecord.php?studynumber=I3334V1 | longitudinal, control, physical health, health behavior, late adult human, activities of daily living, disease, health services utilization, health status, life event, life satisfaction, mental health, physical fitness, self concept, social network, social status, survey data, telephone interview |

Longitudinal Studies of Aging Resource Report Resource Website |
Longitudinal Studies of Aging (RRID:SCR_013355) | LSOA, LSOAs | data or information resource, data set | A data set of a multicohort study of persons 70 years of age and over designed primarily to measure changes in the health, functional status, living arrangements, and health services utilization of two cohorts of Americans as they move into and through the oldest ages. The project is comprised of four surveys: * The 1984 Supplement on Aging (SOA) * The 1984-1990 Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA) * The 1994 Second Supplement on Aging (SOA II) * The 1994-2000 Second Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA II) The surveys, administered by the U.S. Census Bureau, provide a mechanism for monitoring the impact of proposed changes in Medicare and Medicaid and the accelerating shift toward managed care on the health status of the elderly and their patterns of health care utilization. SOA and SOA II were conducted as part of the in-person National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) of noninstitutionalized elderly people aged 55 years and over living in the United States in 1984, and at least 70 years of age in 1994, respectively. The 1984 SOA served as the baseline for the LSOA, which followed all persons who were 70 years of age and over in 1984 through three follow-up waves, conducted by telephone in 1986, 1988, and 1990. The SOA covered housing characteristics, family structure and living arrangements, relationships and social contracts, use of community services, occupation and retirement (income sources), health conditions and impairments, functional status, assistance with basic activities, utilization of health services, nursing home stays, and health opinions. Most of the questions from the SOA were repeated in the SOA II. Topics new to the SOA II included use of assistive devices and medical implants; health conditions and impairments; health behaviors; transportation; functional status, assistance with basic activities, unmet needs; utilization of health services; and nursing home stays. The major focus of the LSOA follow-up interviews was on functional status and changes that had occurred between interviews. Information was also collected on housing and living arrangements, contact with children, utilization of health services and nursing home stays, health insurance coverage, and income. LSOA II also included items on cognitive functioning, income and assets, family and childhood health, and more extensive health insurance information. The interview data are augmented by linkage to Medicare enrollment and utilization records, the National Death Index, and multiple cause-of-death records. Data Availability: Copies of the LSOA CD-ROMs are available through the NCHS or through ICPSR as Study number 8719. * Dates of Study: 1984-2000 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 1984: 16,148 (55+, SOA) ** 1984: 7,541(70+, LSOA) ** 1986: 5,151 (LSOA followup 1) ** 1988: 6,921 (LSOA followup 2) ** 1990: 5,978 (LSOA followup 3) ** 1994-6: 9,447 (LSOA II baseline) ** 1997-8: 7,998 (LSOA II wave 2) ** 1999-0: 6,465 (LSOA II wave 3) Link: * LSOA 1984-1990 ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/08719 | health, functional status, living arrangement, health services utilization, late adult human, american, longitudinal, assisted living, chronic disability, chronic illness, disability, health care, health care service, illness, independent living, medicare, mortality rate, supportive services, mortality, survey, behavior, interview, housing, demographic, social, economic, middle adult human |

Human Mortality Database Resource Report Resource Website 100+ mentions |
Human Mortality Database (RRID:SCR_002370) | HMD | data or information resource, data set | A database providing detailed mortality and population data to those interested in the history of human longevity. For each country, the database includes calculated death rates and life tables by age, time, and sex, along with all of the raw data (vital statistics, census counts, population estimates) used in computing these quantities. Data are presented in a variety of formats with regard to age groups and time periods. The main goal of the database is to document the longevity revolution of the modern era and to facilitate research into its causes and consequences. New data series is continually added to this collection. However, the database is limited by design to populations where death registration and census data are virtually complete, since this type of information is required for the uniform method used to reconstruct historical data series. As a result, the countries and areas included are relatively wealthy and for the most part highly industrialized. The database replaces an earlier NIA-funded project, known as the Berkeley Mortality Database. * Dates of Study: 1751-present * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: 37 countries or areas | age, birth, country, demography, health, public health, longevity, longitudinal, international, census data, vital statistics, mortality, population, census, death, FASEB list |

Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics Resource Report Resource Website |
Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (RRID:SCR_000817) | LEHD | data or information resource, data set | A dataset that combines federal and state administrative data on employers and employees with core Census Bureau censuses and surveys, while protecting the confidentiality of people and firms that provide the data. This data infrastructure facilitates longitudinal research applications in both the household / individual and firm / establishment dimensions. The specific research is targeted at filling an important gap in the available data on older workers by providing information on the demand side of the labor market. These datasets comprise Title 13 protected data from the Current Population Surveys, Surveys of Income and Program Participation, Surveys of Program Dynamics, American Community Surveys, the Business Register, and Economic Censuses and Surveys. With few exceptions, states have partnered with the Census Bureau to share data. As of December 2008, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Puerto Rico have not signed a partnership agreement, while a partnership with the Virgin Islands is pending. LEHD's second method of developing employer-employee data relations through the use of federal tax data has been completed. LEHD has produced summary tables on accessions, separation, job creation, destruction and earnings by age and sex of worker by industry and geographic area. The data files consist of longitudinal datasets on all firms in each participating state (quarterly data, 1991- 2003), with information on age, sex, turnover, and skill level of the workforce as well as standard information on employment, payroll, sales and location. These data can be accessed for all available states from the Project Website. Data Availability: Research conducted on the LEHD data and other products developed under this proposal at the Census Bureau takes place under a set of rules and limitations that are considerably more constraining than those prevailing in typical research environments. If state data are requested, the successful peer-reviewed proposals must also be approved by the participating state. If federal tax data are requested, the successful peer-reviewed proposals must also be approved by the Internal Revenue Service. Researchers using the LEHD data will be required to obtain Special Sworn Status from the Census Bureau and be subject to the same legal penalties as regular Census Bureau employees for disclosure of confidential information. Basic instructions on how to download the data files and restrictions can be found on the Project Website. * Dates of Study: 1991-present * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: 48 States or U.S. territories | longitudinal, late adult human, employee, employer, household, employment, survey, census | has parent organization: U.S. Census Bureau | Aging, All | NIA | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE | nlx_151841 | SCR_000817 | Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) | 2026-02-11 10:56:07 | 0 | |||||

Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) Resource Report Resource Website |
Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) (RRID:SCR_000813) | ACTIVE | data or information resource, data set | Data set from a randomized controlled trial of cognitive interventions designed to maintain functional independence in elders by improving basic mental abilities. Several features made ACTIVE unique in the field of cognitive interventions: (a) use of a multi-site, randomized, controlled, single-blind design; (b) intervention on a large, diverse sample; (c) use of common multi-site intervention protocols, (d) primary outcomes focused on long-term, cognitively demanding functioning as measured by performance-based tests of daily activities; and (e) an intent-to-treat analytical approach. The clinical trial ended with the second annual post-test in January 2002. A third annual post-test was completed in December 2003. The area population and recruitment strategies at the six field sites provided a study sample varying in racial, ethnic, gender, socioeconomic, and cognitive characteristics. At baseline, data were collected by telephone for eligibility screening, followed by three in-person assessment sessions, including two individual sessions and one group session, and a self-administered questionnaire. At post-tests, data were collected in-person in one individual session and one group session as well as by self-administered questionnaire. There were four major categories of measures: proximal outcomes (measures of cognitive abilities that were direct targets of training), primary outcomes (measures of everyday functioning, both self-report and performance), secondary outcomes (measures of health, mobility, quality of life, and service utilization), and covariates (chronic disease, physical characteristics, depressive symptoms, cognitive impairment, psychosocial variables, and demographics). Phase I of ACTIVE was a randomized controlled, single-blind trial utilizing a four-group design, including three treatment arms and a no-contact control group. Each treatment arm consisted of a 10-session intervention for one of three cognitive abilities memory, reasoning, and speed of processing. Testers were blind to participant treatment assignment. The design allowed for testing of both social contact effects (via the contact control group) and retest effects (via the no-contact control group) on outcomes. Booster training was provided in each treatment arm to a 60% random subsample prior to first annual post-test. Phase II of ACTIVE started in July, 2003 as a follow-up study focused on measuring the long-term impact of training effects on cognitive function and cognitively demanding everyday activities. The follow-up consisted of one assessment to include the Phase I post-test battery. This was completed in late 2004. | cognitive function, cognition, longitudinal, mental ability, reasoning, memory, speed of processing |

Resources for Enhancing Alzheimers Caregiver Health Resource Report Resource Website |
Resources for Enhancing Alzheimers Caregiver Health (RRID:SCR_003638) | REACH | data or information resource, data set | Data set from six research sites that examined the feasibility and outcomes of the most promising home and community-based intervention approaches for enhancing family caregiving for Alzheimers Disease (AD) and related disorders (ADRD). A unique feature is the examination of AD burdens and interventions in three ethnic groups (Caucasians, Hispanics, and African Americans). Caregiver/care recipient dyads are entered into the study using standardized eligibility criteria. The dyads are randomized at each intervention site using site-specific procedures. Standardized assessment batteries are administered at baseline, 6, 12, and 18 months. The five general types of REACH interventions are: Individual Information and Support strategies that increase caregivers' understanding of dementia and their particular caregiving situation; Group Support and Family Systems efforts that provide caregivers with multiple forms of social support; Psychoeducational and Skill-Based Training approaches that teach caregivers coping and behavioral management strategies; Home-Based Environmental interventions that modify the home environment's effect on the care recipient and support the caregiver; and Enhanced Technology Systems such as home-centered computer/telephone networks that are designed to reduce caregiver distress and isolation. REACH II was funded in 2001 to test a single multi-component intervention among family caregivers of persons with ADRD, building upon the findings of REACH. Recruitment for REACH II was completed in January 2004 with 642 participants entering the study across 5 participating sites. | longitudinal, minority, caucasian, hispanic, african american, intervention, caregiver, caregiver burden, emotional state, family, health services utilization, health status, home health care, mental disorder, mental health, late adult human, outreach program, psychological wellbeing, questionnaire, anxiety, caregiver health, health behavior, sociodemographic, medication |

Piedmont Health Survey of the Elderly (RRID:SCR_006349) | PHSE | data or information resource, data set | Data set of a follow-up study (one of four Established Populations for Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly - EPESE) that obtains information on four primary outcome variables (cognitive status, depression, functional status, and mortality) and four primary independent variables (social support, social class, social location, and chronic illness); and examines the relationships between social factors and chronic disease on the one hand and health outcomes on the other. This data set complements the other three sites providing a population which is both urban and rural and contains approximately equal numbers of black and white participants across a broad socioeconomic base. The Duke site was originally funded by the NIA Epidemiology, Demography and Biometry Program (EDBP) to complete seven waves of data collection (three in-person and four telephone interviews) in order to examine the health of a sample of 4,162 persons aged 65+, and factors that influence their health and use of health services. The cohort was originally interviewed in 1986/87 and followed annually for 6 years thereafter. The study design consisted of a random stratified household sample with an over-sampling of blacks. Questionnaire topics include the following: Demographics, Alcohol Use, Independence, Health condition, Cognition, Personal mastery, Health Service Utilization, Activity of daily living, Social Support, Hearing and Vision, Incontinence, Social Interaction, Weight and Height, Smoking, Religion, Nutrition, Life Satisfaction, Self Esteem, Sleep, Medications, Economic Status, Depression, Life Changes, Blood pressure. National Death Index files have been searched and death certificates obtained for the members of this study. Sample members have been matched with Medicare Part A files to obtain information on hospitalizations, and will be matched on Medicare Part B (outpatient) files. Data from the first wave of the survey is in the public domain and can be obtained from NACDA or from the National Archives, Center for Electronic Records in Washington, DC. * Dates of Study: 1996-1997 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Oversampling * Sample Size: 1986-1988: 4,162 Links: * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/02744 * National Archives: http://www.archives.gov/research/electronic-records/ | late adult human, african-american, caucasian, interview, questionnaire, health, health service utilization, cognitive status, functional status, mortality, social support, social class, social location, chronic illness, social factor, chronic disease, health outcome, questionnaire, demographics, alcohol use, independence, health condition, cognition, personal mastery, activity of daily living, social support, hearing, vision, incontinence, social interaction, weight, height, smoking, religion, nutrition, life satisfaction, self esteem, sleep, medication, economic status, depression, life change, blood pressure, survey, chronic illness, disease, epidemiology, hospitalization, long term care, mortality rate, risk factor, death, clinical |

English Longitudinal Study of Ageing Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (RRID:SCR_006727) | ELSA | data or information resource, data set | An interdisciplinary data resource on health, economic position and quality of life as people age. Longitudinal multidisciplinary data from a representative sample of the English population aged 50 and older have been collected. Both objective and subjective data are collected relating to health and disability, biological markers of disease, economic circumstance, social participation, networks and well-being. Participants are surveyed every two years to see how people''s health, economic and social circumstances may change over time. One of the study''s aims is to determine the relationships between functioning and health, social networks, resources and economic position as people plan for, move into and progress beyond retirement. It is patterned after the Health and Retirement Study, a similar study based in the United States. ELSA''s method of data collection includes face-to-face interview with respondents aged 50+; self-completion; and clinical, physical, and performance measurements (e.g., timed walk). Wave 2 added questions about quality of health care, literacy, and household consumption, and a visit by a nurse to obtain anthropometric, blood pressure, and lung function measurements, as well as saliva and blood samples, and to record results from tests of balance and muscle strength. Another new aspect of Wave 2 is the ''Exit Interview'' carried out with proxy informants to collect data about respondents who have died since Wave 1. This interview includes questions about the respondents'' physical and psychological health, the care and support they received, their memory and mood in the last year of their life, and details of what has happened to their finances after their death. Wave 3 data added questions related to mortgages and pensions. The intention is to conduct interviews every 2 years, and to have a nurse visit every 4 years. It also is envisioned that the ELSA data will ultimately be linked to available administrative data, such as death registry data, a cancer register, NHS hospital episodes data, National Insurance contributions, benefits, and tax credit records. The survey data are designed to be used for the investigation of a broad set of topics relevant to understanding the aging process. These include: * health trajectories, disability and healthy life expectancy; * the determinants of economic position in older age; * the links between economic position, physical health, cognition and mental health; * the nature and timing of retirement and post-retirement labour market activity; * household and family structure, social networks and social supports; * patterns, determinants and consequences of social, civic and cultural participation; * predictors of well-being. Current funding for ELSA will extend the panel to 12 years of study, giving significant potential for longitudinal analyses to examine causal processes. * Dates of Study: 2002-2007 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: ** 2000-2003 (Wave 1): 12,100 ** 2004-2005 (Wave 2): 9,433 ** 2006-2007 (Wave 3): 9,771 ** 2008-2009 (Wave 4): underway Links * Economic and Social Data Service (ESDS): http://www.esds.ac.uk/longitudinal/about/overview.asp * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/00139#scope-of-study | middle adult human, late adult human, adult human, biological marker, direct assessment, physical impairment, interview, clinical, physical, performance, health care, literacy, household consumption, anthropometric, blood pressure, lung function, measurement, saliva, blood, balance, muscle strength, psychological health, care, support, memory, mood, longitudinal, international, health, disability, economic circumstance, social participation, well-being, behavior, family life, health care, health status, household income, income, marriage, retirement, social network |

Alameda County Health and Ways of Living Study Resource Report Resource Website |
Alameda County Health and Ways of Living Study (RRID:SCR_008889) | Health and Ways of Living Study | data or information resource, data set | Data set from a long-term population-based prospective study of non-institutionalized residents (aged 21 or older, or aged 16-21 and older if married) in Alameda County, California investigating social and behavioral risk factors for morbidity, mortality, functioning and health. Questions were asked on marital and life satisfaction, parenting, physical activities, employment, health status, and childhood experiences. Demographic information on age, race, height, weight, education, income, and religion was also collected. Included with this dataset is a separate file (part 2) containing mortality data. With the aging of this cohort, data are becoming increasingly valuable for examining the life-long cumulative effects of social and behavioral factors on a well-characterized population. The first wave collected information for 6,928 respondents (including approximately 500 women aged 65 years and older) on chronic health conditions, health behaviors, social involvements, and psychological characteristics. The 1974 questionnaire was sent to 6,246 living subjects who had responded in 1965, and were able to be located. The third wave provides a follow-up of 2,729 original 1965 and 1974 respondents and examines health behaviors such as alcohol consumption and smoking habits, along with social activities. Also included is information on health conditions such as diabetes, osteoporosis, hormone replacement, and mental illness. Another central topic investigated is activities of daily living (including self-care such as dressing, eating, and shopping), along with use of free time and level of involvement in social, recreational, religious, and environmental groups. The fourth wave is a follow-up to the 1994 panel and examines changes in functional abilities such as self-care activities, employment, involvement in community activities, visiting friends/family, and use of free time since 1994. * Dates of Study: 1965-1999 * Sample Size: 1965: 6,928; 1974: 4,864; 1994: 2,729; 1995: 2,569, 1999: 2,123 * Study Features: Longitudinal Links: * 1965 ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06688 * 1974 ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06838 * 1994 and 1995 ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/03083 * 1999 ICPSR, http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/04432#summary | longitudinal, adult, adolescent, social, behavior, risk factor, morbidity, mortality, functioning, health, woman, late adult human, chronic health condition, psychological characteristic, questionnaire, activities of daily living, chronic illness, community involvement, health behavior, health care service, independent living, living arrangement, mental health, physical condition, social behavior, social life, social network, survey data |

Early Indicators of Later Work Levels Disease and Death (EI) - Union Army Samples Public Health and Ecological Datasets (RRID:SCR_008921) | Early Indicators of Later Work Levels Disease and Death, EI project | data or information resource, data set | A dataset to advance the study of life-cycle interactions of biomedical and socioeconomic factors in the aging process. The EI project has assembled a variety of large datasets covering the life histories of approximately 39,616 white male volunteers (drawn from a random sample of 331 companies) who served in the Union Army (UA), and of about 6,000 African-American veterans from 51 randomly selected United States Colored Troops companies (USCT). Their military records were linked to pension and medical records that detailed the soldiers������?? health status and socioeconomic and family characteristics. Each soldier was searched for in the US decennial census for the years in which they were most likely to be found alive (1850, 1860, 1880, 1900, 1910). In addition, a sample consisting of 70,000 men examined for service in the Union Army between September 1864 and April 1865 has been assembled and linked only to census records. These records will be useful for life-cycle comparisons of those accepted and rejected for service. Military Data: The military service and wartime medical histories of the UA and USCT men were collected from the Union Army and United States Colored Troops military service records, carded medical records, and other wartime documents. Pension Data: Wherever possible, the UA and USCT samples have been linked to pension records, including surgeon''''s certificates. About 70% of men in the Union Army sample have a pension. These records provide the bulk of the socioeconomic and demographic information on these men from the late 1800s through the early 1900s, including family structure and employment information. In addition, the surgeon''''s certificates provide rich medical histories, with an average of 5 examinations per linked recruit for the UA, and about 2.5 exams per USCT recruit. Census Data: Both early and late-age familial and socioeconomic information is collected from the manuscript schedules of the federal censuses of 1850, 1860, 1870 (incomplete), 1880, 1900, and 1910. Data Availability: All of the datasets (Military Union Army; linked Census; Surgeon''''s Certificates; Examination Records, and supporting ecological and environmental variables) are publicly available from ICPSR. In addition, copies on CD-ROM may be obtained from the CPE, which also maintains an interactive Internet Data Archive and Documentation Library, which can be accessed on the Project Website. * Dates of Study: 1850-1910 * Study Features: Longitudinal, Minority Oversamples * Sample Size: ** Union Army: 35,747 ** Colored Troops: 6,187 ** Examination Sample: 70,800 ICPSR Link: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06836 | late adult human, male, caucasian, african-american, veteran, military, medical, socioeconomic, civil war, american civil war, cause of death, census data, demographic, disease, health status, labor force, medical record, midlife, military pension, pension, military recruitment, military service, mortality rate, nineteenth century, nutrition, socioeconomic status, twentieth century, union army, census |

Puerto Rican Elderly: Health Conditions Resource Report Resource Website |
Puerto Rican Elderly: Health Conditions (RRID:SCR_008916) | PREHCO | data or information resource, data set | A dataset that provides researchers and policy makers information about issues affecting the elderly population in Puerto Rico: health status, housing arrangements, functional status, transfers, labor history, migration, income, childhood characteristics, health insurance, use of health services, marital history, mistreat, sexuality, etc. It investigates the characteristics of older adults (aged 60+) through an island-wide cross-sectional sample survey of target individuals and their surviving spouses. The sampling frame was constructed on the basis of an advance release of the 2000 US Census. The population for the study consists of the elderly population (60+) in households in Puerto Rico. The sample design used a multistage probabilistic sample by cluster. All elderly adults who lived in the selected households were eligible. If more than one person was in the target population, one 60+ adult was the target and one was the spouse. Respondents 80+ and males in couples who were both 80+ were oversampled. There were 4,293 targets aged 60+ and 1,444 spouses (all ages) in the first wave. Types of data include demographic; household composition; marital history; Cantrill Scale; mini-mental (designed to measure cognitive capacity of Spanish-speaking Latinos with low levels of education and to provide early indications of dementia); self-reported health status; diagnosed health conditions; childhood conditions; transfers; labor history; migration; housing; assets; Activities of Daily Living; Instrumental Activities of Daily Living; medicines; health insurance and use of health services; family structure; sexuality; anthropometric measures. Project innovations include: (1) the design and test of a new tool for assessing cognition among Spanish speaking elderly of low levels of education, (2) a symptoms section to assess the validity of selected self reported conditions, (3) a modification of the Cantrill''s Ladder Scale, (4) protocols for physical measurements to assess current, as well as past, conditions, and (5) the use of GIS and GPS in the fieldwork supervision and to geocoding the survey data. At this moment PREHCO has completed a second wave to become a longitudinal study. The questionnaire included questions regarding the changing conditions (health, residential, social and economic) of those individuals who responded the first questionnaire. The new questionnaire included novel components: vignettes for health status self-report, a new improved section on disability and dependency, and on labor force participation. We also expanded the section of anthropometry by adding a few measurements and physical efficiency tests. Those participants deceased or institutionalized were interviewed using a proxy. Data Availability: First and second wave data are available for public use through BADGIR, the online data archive at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, at: http://nesstar.ssc.wisc.edu/ * Dates of Study: 2002-2003, 2004-2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Minority Oversampling, Anthropometric measures * Sample Size: 5,336 | longitudinal, international, minority oversampling, anthropometric measure, late adult human, questionnaire, puerto rico, health, residence, social, economic, self-report, disability, dependency, labor force |

Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Aging Study Resource Report Resource Website |
Cross-Sectional and Longitudinal Aging Study (RRID:SCR_008903) | CALAS | data or information resource, data set | A data set designed to provide a cross-sectional description of health, mental, and social status of the oldest-old segment of the elderly population in Israel, and to serve as a baseline for a multiple-stage research program to correlate demographic, health, and functional status with subsequent mortality, selected morbidity, and institutionalization. Study data are based on a sample of Jewish subjects aged 75+, alive and living in Israel on January 1, 1989, randomly selected from the National Population Register (NPR), a complete listing of the Israeli population maintained by the Ministry of the Interior. The NPR is updated on a routine basis with births, deaths, and in and out migration, and corrected by linkage with census data. The sample was stratified by age (five 5-year age groups: 75-79, 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95+), sex, and place of birth (Israel, Asia-Africa, Europe-America). One hundred subjects were randomly selected in each of the 30 strata. However, there were less than 100 individuals of each sex aged 95+ born in Israel, so all were selected for the sample. The total group included 2,891 individuals living both in the community and in institutions. A total of 1,820 (76%) of the 75-94 age group were interviewed during 1989-1992. An additional cognitive exam (Folstein) and a 24-hour dietary recall interview were added in the second round. Kibbutz Residents Sample The kibbutz is a social and economic unit based on equality among members, common property and work, collaborative consumption, and democracy in decision making. There are 250 kibbutzim in Israel, and their population constitutes about 3% of the country''s total population. All kibbutz residents in the country aged 85+, both members and parents, were selected for interviewing, of whom 80.4% (n=652) were interviewed. A matched sample aged 75-84 was selected, and 85.9% (n=674) were successfully interviewed. The original interview took approximately two hours to administer, and collected extensive information concerning the socio-demographic, physical, health, functioning, life events (including Holocaust), depression, mental status, and social network characteristics of the sample. The questionnaire used for kibbutz residents in the follow-up interview is identical to that utilized in the national random sample. Data Availability: Mortality data for both the national and kibbutz samples are available for analysis as a result of the linkage to the NPR file updated as of June 2000. The fieldwork for first follow up was completed as of September 1994 and for the second follow up as of December 2002. The data file of the three phases of the study is ready for analysis. * Dates of Study: 1989-1992 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: 2,891 | late adult human, israel, cognition, jewish, diet, interview, social, economic, kibbutz, socio-demographic, physical, health, functioning, life event, depression, mental status, social network, questionnaire |

Longitudinal Study of Elderly Mexican American Health Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
Longitudinal Study of Elderly Mexican American Health (RRID:SCR_008941) | HEPESE | data or information resource, data set | A dataset of a longitudinal study of over 3,000 Mexican-Americans aged 65 or over living in five southwestern states. The objective is to describe the physical and mental health of the study group and link them to key social variables (e.g., social support, health behavior, acculturation, migration). To the extent possible, the study was modeled after the existing EPESE studies, especially the Duke EPESE, which included a large sample if African-Americans. Unlike the other EPESE studies that were restricted to small geographic areas, the Hispanic EPESE aimed at obtaining a representative sample of community-dwelling Mexican-American elderly residing in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Colorado, and California. Approximately 85% of Mexican-American elderly reside in these states and data were obtained that are generalizable to roughly 500,000 older people. The final sample of 3,050 subjects at baseline is comparable to those of the other EPESE studies. Data Availability: Waves I to IV are available through the National Archive of Computerized Data on Aging (NACDA), ICPSR. Also available through NACDA is the ����??Resource Book of the Hispanic Established Populations for the Epidemiologic Studies of the Elderly����?? which offers a thorough review of the data and its applications. All subjects aged 75 or older were interviewed for Wave V and 902 new subjects were added. Hemoglobin A1c test kits were provided to subjects who self-reported diabetes. Approximately 270 of the kits were returned for analyses. Wave V data are being validated and reviewed. A tentative timeline for the archiving of Wave V data is November 2006.
