CERAD - Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease Resource Report Resource Website 1000+ mentions |
CERAD - Consortium to Establish a Registry for Alzheimer's Disease (RRID:SCR_003016) | CERAD | assessment test provider, material resource | THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 4, 2023.Consortium that developed brief, standardized and reliable procedures for the evaluation and diagnosis of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other dementias of the elderly. These procedures included data forms, flipbooks, guidebooks, brochures, instruction manuals and demonstration tapes, which are now available for purchase. The CERAD assessment material can be used for research purposes as well as for patient care. CERAD has developed several basic standardized instruments, each consisting of brief forms designed to gather data on normal persons as well as on cognitively impaired or behaviorally disturbed individuals. Such data permit the identification of dementia based on clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral or neuropathological criteria. Staff at participating CERAD sites were trained and certified to administer the assessment instruments and to evaluate the subjects enrolled in the study. Cases and controls were evaluated at entry and annually thereafter including (when possible) autopsy examination of the brain to track the natural progression of AD and to obtain neuropathological confirmation of the clinical diagnosis. The CERAD database has become a major resource for research in Alzheimer's disease. It contains longitudinal data for periods as long as seven years on the natural progression of the disorder as well as information on clinical and neuropsychological changes and neuropathological manifestations., THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE.

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 (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.

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 Resource Report Resource Website |
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 |
