The goal of the Core is to foster national and international collaboration on survey research in aging. The Core continues a long-standing Michigan tradition of outreach to developing countries in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, and builds on more recent activities in developed countries and the U.S. The core leader, Mary Beth Ofstedal, has extensive experience analyzing data on health and aging from several Asian countries and is Co-Investigator on the Health and Retirement Survey. Activities that are proposed include: A formal network that will focus on disability trends, primarily in the United States but with international comparisons where possible. The broad objective of the Disability Trends Network is to accelerate scientific advancement of our understanding of old-age disability trends. The network will focus on three areas: 1) updating trends and reconciling differences across studies, including international comparisons; 2) determining the causes of the trends; and 3) articulating the implications of the trends. The network will be led by Robert Schoeni and will involve investigators from around the U.S. who will communicate and disseminate via a dedicated web site, meet once a year, and aim for a coordinated publication on disability trends as a special issue of a high-profile journal. Several international networks that will focus on survey design and comparative analysis on aging in developed and developing countries around the world: HRS/ELSA/SHARE; South Africa/Africa; Developing Countries Comparative; AIDS and older persons; Nepal; Developmental Idealism. Specific activities will include identification of members, conference calls, face-to-face meetings and working visits to explore specific topics. Network leaders will coordinate with the international comparative data resource project that is proposed in another Core.

核心的目的是培养国家和国际衰老调查研究的合作。该核心延续了密歇根州的长期传统传统，即向亚洲，非洲和拉丁美洲的发展中国家推出，并建立在发达国家的最新活动，美国的核心领导者玛丽·贝丝·奥斯特德尔（Mary Beth Ofstedal）拥有丰富的经验，分析了来自多个亚洲国家的健康和衰老数据，并且是对健康和退休调查的共同投资者。拟议的活动包括：一个正式的网络，将重点关注残疾趋势，主要在美国，但在可能的情况下进行国际比较。残疾趋势网络的广泛目标是加速我们对旧残疾趋势的理解的科学进步。网络将重点放在三个领域：1） 更新趋势和调和研究之间的差异，包括国际比较； 2）确定趋势的原因； 3）阐明趋势的含义。该网络将由Robert Schoeni领导，并将参与来自美国各地的调查人员，他们将通过专门的网站进行交流和传播，每年开会一次，并旨在将残疾趋势的协调出版物作为一本高调期刊的特刊。 几个国际网络将重点介绍有关世界各地发达和发展中国家衰老的调查设计和比较分析：HRS/ELSA/份额；南 非洲/非洲；发展中国家比较；艾滋病和老年人；尼泊尔； 发展理想主义。具体的活动将包括识别会员，电话会议，面对面的会议以及探索特定主题的访问。网络 领导者将与另一个核心提出的国际比较数据资源项目进行协调。
