English Longitudinal Study of Ageing: renewal 2014

说明（由申请人提供）：此申请是为2014 - 2020年期间的英国老龄化纵向研究（ELSA）申请竞争性资金。ELSA于2002年作为健康和退休调查（HRS）的姊妹研究开始，招募了12100名50岁及以上的男性和女性，他们是英格兰老年人口的代表。ELSA自成立以来一直由NIA提供部分资金，其中一半资金来自英国政府部门的一个财团。此更新请求将资助三波数据收集——第7波（2014/15）、第8波（2016/17）和第9波（2018/19）——以及相关分析。中心目标是提供必要的高质量数据，以探索在人们计划退休、步入退休和退休之后，健康与功能、经济地位、社会参与、福祉、认知功能和健康之间的动态关系。ELSA是一项多学科研究，涉及收集经济、流行病学、卫生、社会、心理、生理和遗传数据。本应用程序中计划的数据收集阶段将大大增加纵向分析的潜力，以便检查因果过程。本申请的研究议程集中在以下广泛的问题上，这些问题在科学上很重要，同时也与政策有关：比较英国、美国和其他国家的健康和福祉轨迹；老年人经济福利的决定因素；退休和退休后劳动力市场活动的性质和时间；健康和死亡率的社会心理、遗传和生物决定因素之间的相互作用；老年人认知功能及其对决策的影响残疾和发病率的压缩；轻度认知障碍对社会、经济和主观幸福感的影响人口老龄化中的经济、社会和保健不平等；老年社会参与和社会生产力；代际关系与生育；医疗保健的利用以及向社会保健的转变。新提案的具体目标是：1。设计进一步收集海浪数据的调查工具，以这些受访者的现有数据为基础，最大限度地提高与HRS和其他研究的可比性2。制定并纳入对代际转移、生育能力、轻度认知障碍、听力、患者偏好和卫生服务使用情况的新评估。3. 在第七波采访了大约9840名受访者，在第八波采访了10118名，在第九波采访了9650名。4. 通过护士访视收集第8波受访者的生物医学和身体表现数据。5. 向科学和政策研究界提供十波有据可查的小组数据。6. 开展与核心研究主题相关的ELSA数据分析

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is for competitive funding of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA) for the period 2014 - 2020. ELSA started in 2002 as a sister study to the Health and Retirement Survey (HRS), and recruited 12,100 men and women aged 50 and above who were representative of the older population of England. ELSA has been part-funded by NIA since it began, with half of the funding coming from a consortium of UK Government Departments. This renewal request is to fund three waves of data collection - waves 7 (2014/15), 8 (2016/17), and 9 (2018/19) - and associated analyses. The central objective is to provide the high quality data necessary for an exploration of the dynamic relationships between health and functioning, economic position, social participation, wellbeing, cognitive function and health as people plan for, move into and progress beyond retirement. ELSA is a multidisciplinary study, involving the collection of economic, epidemiological, health, social, psychological, physiological and genetic data. The phase of data collection planned in this application will greatly increase the potential for longitudinal analyses so as to examine causal process. The research agenda of this application is focused on the following broad issues that are important scientifically while also being relevant to policy: comparisons of trajectories of health and wellbeing in England, the USA, and other countries; the determinants of economic wellbeing in older age; the nature and timing of retirement and post-retirement labor market activity; the interaction between psychosocial, genetic, and biological determinants of health and mortality; cognitive functioning and its impact on decision making among older people; disability and the compression of morbidity; the implications of mild cognitive impairment for social, economic and subjective wellbeing; economic, social and health inequalities in an ageing population; social participation and social productivity at older ages; intergenerational relationships and generativity; and health care utilization and transitions to social care. The specific objectives of the new proposal are to: 1. Design the survey instruments for further waves data collection, building on the existing data from these respondents and maximizing comparability with HRS and other studies 2. Develop and incorporate new assessments of intergenerational transfers, generativity, mild cognitive impairment, hearing, patient preferences and health service use. 3. Interview approximately 9,840 respondents in wave 7, 10,118 in wave 8, and 9,650 in wave 9. 4. Collect biomedical and physical performance data from respondents at wave 8 through a nurse visit. 5. Provide ten waves of well-documented panel data to the scientific and policy research community. 6. Carry out analyses of ELSA data relevant to the core research themes
