 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This competitive, renewal proposal is to fund waves 3 and 4 of the China Health and Retirement Study (CHARLS). CHARLS is directly patterned on the HRS and its sister surveys in England, Europe, Japan, Indonesia and South Korea. The new HRS surveys in India (LASI) and Thailand (HART) have used the CHARLS survey modules as the starting point of their modules. The CHARLS national baseline survey was conducted in 2011-12. It is a nationally representative survey that includes one person per household aged 45 years of age or older and their spouse (totaling 17,708 individuals) living in 10,257 households in 450 villages/urban communities in 150 counties/districts in 28 of China's 30 provinces excluding Tibet. The CHARLS national baseline data have recently been released publicly, 11 months after completing field operations. Wave 2 was fielded in the summer and fall of 2013. It will be publicly released by fall of 2014. Some 91% of wave 1 respondents were re-contacted in wave 2, plus a small refresher sample of new respondents who had reached age 45 since wave 1, plus some households that we were unable to contact in the baseline, that we found and interviewed in wave 2. A special wave to collect life history data will be fielded in the summer of 2014, using resources from the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and other sources. We want to continue CHARLS, getting the full benefit of building a publicly available panel data set, by fielding CHARLS for 2 additional waves, 3 and 4, thus establishing CHARLS as an ongoing biennial panel survey, like the HRS and its other sister surveys in Europe and Asia. An HRS-type survey in China has been past overdue. The importance of research on aging is recognized world-wide, where numerous high-quality surveys modeled after the US Health and Retirement Survey (HRS) and funded by National Institute on Aging (NIA), are ongoing. Developing countries, especially in Asia, are going through rapid demographic and health transitions in which the elderly become much more prominent and the nature of health problems changes from infectious diseases, which affect mainly the young, to chronic diseases, which affect the elderly. Moreover, they are undergoing the aging process at much lower income levels than was the experience in industrial countries. China is a prominent example. China has more elderly than any country in the world and is one of the fastest-aging countries in the world today. China's population is aging at income levels far lower than was true for industrial countries and aging faster than other currently developing countries. Compared to most other countries with Health and Retirement Studies, China is much more rural, with lower levels of schooling among the elderly, lower levels of public services available, and an enhanced importance of the family for social security. Given these major challenges facing China to meet the needs of a rapidly aging population, there is significant value in continuing to make a high quality panel data set on aging available to international researchers.

 描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个有竞争力的更新提案，旨在资助中国健康与退休研究（CHARLS）的第3和第4波。CHARLS直接模仿HRS及其在英国、欧洲、日本、印度尼西亚和韩国的姐妹调查。在印度（LASI）和泰国（哈特）进行的新HRS调查使用CHARLS调查模块作为其模块的起点。 CHARLS国家基线调查于2011-12年进行。这是一项具有全国代表性的调查，包括中国30个省（不包括西藏）中的28个省的150个县/区的450个村庄/城市社区的10，257户家庭中的一名45岁或以上的人及其配偶（共计17，708人）。CHARLS国家基线数据最近在完成实地作业11个月后公开发布。第二波于2013年夏季和秋季投入使用。它将于2014年秋季公开发布。大约91%的第一波受访者在第二波中重新联系，加上一小部分自第一波以来年龄达到45岁的新受访者的更新样本，以及我们在第二波中发现和采访的一些基线无法联系的家庭。一个收集生命史数据的特殊波浪将在 2014年夏天，利用中国国家自然科学基金（NSFC）和其他来源的资源。我们希望继续CHARLS，通过将CHARLS用于另外两波（3和4），从而将CHARLS建立为正在进行的两年一度的面板调查，就像HRS及其在欧洲和亚洲的其他姐妹调查一样，从而获得建立公开可用的面板数据集的全部好处。 在中国，人力资源调查已经过时了。老龄化研究的重要性在世界范围内得到了认可，许多高质量的调查以美国健康和退休调查（HRS）为模型，并由国家老龄化研究所（NIA）资助。发展中国家，特别是亚洲的发展中国家，正在经历人口和健康方面的迅速转变，老年人变得更加突出，健康问题的性质从主要影响年轻人的传染病转变为影响老年人的慢性病。此外，他们正在经历老龄化过程，收入水平比工业国家低得多。中国就是一个突出的例子。中国的老年人口比世界上任何一个国家都多，是当今世界老龄化最快的国家之一。中国人口老龄化的收入水平远高于 低于工业化国家的实际水平，老龄化速度快于目前的其他发展中国家。与其他大多数开展健康和退休研究的国家相比，中国的农村化程度更高，老年人的受教育程度更低，公共服务水平更低，家庭对社会保障的重要性更高。鉴于中国在满足快速老龄化人口需求方面面临的这些重大挑战，继续向国际研究人员提供高质量的老龄化面板数据具有重要价值。
