(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（根据申请人的摘要进行了改编）：此申请是寻求部分资金，以进行英语衰老纵向研究（ELSA）的头五年（两次数据收集）。我们将与同等资金的英国资金来源相匹配。该研究以美国健康和退休调查以及资产和健康动态调查进行建模，其主要目的是收集有关健康的纵向数据（自我报告和生物医学措施），经济学以及社交网络和资源，来自50岁及以上的英国人群的代表性样本。英国没有涵盖这一主题的数据库，因此ELSA将为探索与衰老有关的问题提供至关重要的资源，这对于科学理解和制定政策至关重要。该研究的价值将通过提供数据的能力来大大提高，从而可以在美国和英国之间进行直接比较。英格兰的健康调查（HSE）是一项年度横断面调查，将为Elsa提供抽样框架，因此基线自我报告和生物医学数据有关HE3ALTH和经济地位，以及社交网络和资源。 ELSA的第一波还将收集基线经济数据，而第2浪也将收集回顾性的健康和经济数据。我们的主要目标是产生对美国和英国科学和政策社区的关键要求的比较数据。具体而言，该提案的目的是：1。招募来自HSE 50岁或超过50岁英语人群的代表性样本。 2。为两个数据收集浪潮设计调查工具，这将基于这些受访者的健康数据。 3。在2001年的第1波访谈中采访大约12,700名受试者，并在2003年的后续浪潮中采访和收集大约11,300名受试者的生物医学数据。4。构建两个可访问且文化良好的面板数据的浪潮，并结合HSE数据。 5。以方便，及时的方式提供这些数据，以向科学和政策研究界提供。
