DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose a collaborative, multidisciplinary program of projects on aging and the life course that will both exploit and add to core resources of the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS). The program will use existing longitudinal data and new data, collected 45 years after the 1957 high school graduation of the original 10,317 participants. We are more than 50 investigators and colleagues at the University of Wisconsin and across the nation. We want to exploit the unique scientific value of the WLS, along with other relevant and comparable data on population aging, to pursue a broad agenda of research on social and economic factors in health and aging. We represent diverse scientific fields - sociology, demography, epidemiology, economics, social and cognitive psychology, industrial engineering, neuroscience, social work, psychiatry, nursing, and medicine. Our analytic work will reflect and, we hope, intermingle the full range of theories, models, and methods of our home disciplines. Regardless of individual and collective plans, all WLS data will be released to the research community as soon as they can be collected, cleaned, and documented. We will recruit, encourage, and support a cadre of researchers (and researchers-in-training) at the UW-Madison and elsewhere who will fully exploit the unique resources of the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study. We will supplement existing and new WLS data with linked data from individual administrative records, organizational records, and small area data. We will disseminate WLS data by several means including both public and secure access. We will sponsor and organize local and extramural seminars and workshops to encourage use of WLS data and to report research in progress, and we will organize a small project competition and workshops to encourage innovative uses (and new users) of WLS data. We will provide common resources and avenue for productive scientific interaction for an initial set of seven major analytic research projects that will use data from the WLS: Social and Behavioral Contexts of the Aging Mind; End-of-Life Planning and Well-Being in Late Life; Non-normative Parenting Impacts in Midlife and Old Age; Access to Care and Health Outcomes in the Near Elderly; Work, Health, and Well Being; Education in Careers, Health, and Retirement; and The Emotional Brain Across the Life Course.

描述(由申请者提供)：我们提出了一个关于老龄化和生命历程的多学科合作项目，这将开发和增加威斯康星州纵向研究(WLS)的核心资源。该项目将使用现有的纵向数据和新的数据，这些数据是在1957年高中毕业45年后收集的，最初的参与者为10,317人。我们是威斯康星大学和全国各地的50多名研究人员和同事。我们希望利用WLS的独特科学价值，以及其他有关人口老龄化的相关和可比较的数据，对健康和老龄化中的社会和经济因素进行广泛的研究。我们代表不同的科学领域--社会学、人口学、流行病学、经济学、社会和认知心理学、工业工程、神经科学、社会工作、精神病学、护理和医学。我们的分析工作将反映并，我们希望，混合了我们本国学科的全部理论、模型和方法。无论是个人还是集体计划，只要能够收集、清理和记录WLS数据，所有WLS数据都将立即向研究社区发布。我们将在威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校和其他地方招募、鼓励和支持一批研究人员(以及正在接受培训的研究人员)，他们将充分利用威斯康星州纵向研究的独特资源。我们将使用来自个人行政记录、组织记录和小区域数据的链接数据来补充现有和新的WLS数据。我们将通过几种方式传播WLS数据，包括公开访问和安全访问。我们将赞助和组织本地和校外研讨会和工作坊，以鼓励使用WLS数据并报告正在进行的研究，我们还将组织一个小型项目竞赛和工作坊，以鼓励WLS数据的创新使用(和新用户)。我们将为最初的七个主要分析研究项目提供公共资源和生产性科学互动的途径，这些项目将使用WLS的数据：老龄化心理的社会和行为背景；晚年的生命终结规划和福祉；中年和老年的非规范性育儿影响；近老年人获得护理和健康结果的机会；工作、健康和福祉；职业、健康和退休方面的教育；以及整个生命过程中的情绪大脑。
