(Revised Abstract) DESCRIPTION (Adapted from applicant's abstract): This application is to seek partial funding to conduct the first five years (two waves of data collection) of The English Longitudinal Study of Aging (ELSA). We will match the funding requested with equivalent funding British sources. The study is modeled on the US Health and Retirement Survey and Asset and Health Dynamics survey, with a primary objective to collect longitudinal data on health (both self report and biomedical measures), economics, and social networks and resources, from a representative sample of the English population aged 50 and older. There are no data bases in Britain that cover this range of topics, so ELSA will provide a crucial resource for exploring issues relating to aging that will be important both for scientific understanding and for the development of policy. The value of the study will be greatly enhanced by its ability to provide data allowing direct comparisons between the situation in the US and England. The Health Survey for England (HSE), an annual cross-sectional survey, will provide the sampling frame for ELSA, so baseline self-reported and bio-medical data on he3alth and economic position, and on social networks and resources. Wave 1 of ELSA will also collect baseline economic data, while wave 2 will also collect retrospective health and economic data. Our main objective will be to produce comparative data that fulfill key requirements for the scientific and policy communities in the US and Britain. Specifically, the objective for this proposal are: 1. To recruit a representative sample of the English populations age 50 or over from the HSE. 2. To design the survey instruments for two waves of data collection, which will build on the existent health data on these respondents. 3. To interview approximately 12,700 subjects in a wave 1 interview in the year 2001, and to interview and collect bio-medical data from approximately 11,300 subjects in a follow-up wave in 2003. 4. To construct two waves of accessible and well documented panel data, and incorporate the HSE data. 5. Provide these data in a convenient and timely way to the scientific and policy research community.

（修订摘要）描述（改编自申请人的摘要）：本申请旨在寻求部分资金，以进行英国老龄化纵向研究（艾尔莎）的前五年（两波数据收集）。我们将把所要求的资金与英国的同等资金来源相匹配。这项研究是仿照美国健康和退休调查和资产和健康动态调查，主要目的是收集纵向数据的健康（自我报告和生物医学措施），经济学，社交网络和资源，从一个有代表性的样本的英国人口50岁及以上。英国没有涵盖这一系列主题的数据库，因此艾尔莎将为探索与老龄化有关的问题提供关键资源，这对科学理解和政策制定都很重要。这项研究的价值将大大提高，因为它能够提供数据，使美国和英国的情况之间进行直接比较。英格兰健康调查（HSE）是一项年度横断面调查，将为艾尔莎提供抽样框架，从而提供关于健康和经济状况以及社交网络和资源的基线自我报告和生物医学数据。艾尔莎的第一波也将收集基线经济数据，而第二波也将收集回顾性健康和经济数据。我们的主要目标将是产生满足美国和英国科学和政策界关键要求的比较数据。具体而言，本提案的目标是：1。从HSE招募50岁或以上的英国人口的代表性样本。2.设计两波数据收集的调查工具，这将建立在这些答复者的现有健康数据的基础上。3.在2001年的第一波访谈中访谈约12 700名受试者，并在2003年的后续波访谈中访谈约11 300名受试者并收集其生物医学数据。4.构建两波可访问和有据可查的面板数据，并纳入HSE数据。5.以方便和及时的方式向科学和政策研究界提供这些数据。
