项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposed, continuing program of projects will explore the implications of the changing social, political, economic, and technological contexts of the early 21st century for the well-being of a large cohort of men and women transitioning to old age. In this context, our several inter-related research plans are motivated by common issues related to the recent shift towards individual responsibility for health, health care, and economic well-being among older adults. In order to better understand the determinants of well-being of older Americans in an era of social, political, economic, and technological change, we propose a three-year continuation of our collaborative, multidisciplinary program of projects on aging and the life course. Our project will both exploit and add to core, public resources of the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study (WLS). We want to maximize the unique scientific value of the WLS, along with other relevant and comparable sources of data on population aging, to pursue a rich and important agenda of research on social, economic, and psychological factors in health and aging. This proposal consists of 3 Cores: Administration (A); Data Dissemination: Documentation, Outreach, and Security (B); and Complementary Data Collection and Management (C), which will serve an initial set of six research projects: The Impact of End of Life Planning on the Quality of Death & Survivor Well Being; The Effect of Nonnormative Parenting on the Normative Transitions of Aging; Cognitive Aging in Context: Abilities, Genes, and the Social Environment; Psychological Aging in Context: Personality, Psychological Well Being, and Distress; The Impact of Work and Family Careers on Life Outcomes in Late Adulthood; and Socioeconomic Status and Health in the Wisconsin Longitudinal Study. As we work together and share findings and methods, we will also share in the support and expertise of the core WLS staff, the rich existing data resources of the project, and new data created for the several projects. We intend and expect that our longitudinal analyses of old and new waves of WLS data will resolve old questions and open new areas of interdisciplinary inquiry about health, aging and the life course. All WLS data will be released to the wider research community, either directly or through a secure data enclave, to the maximum extent consistent with high standards of protection for the privacy and confidentiality of research participants, as soon as they have been collected, cleaned, and documented.

描述（由申请人提供）：这项拟议的持续项目计划将探讨 21 世纪初不断变化的社会、政治、经济和技术背景对一大批过渡到社会的男性和女性的福祉的影响。晚年。在这种背景下，我们的几个相互关联的研究计划的动机是与最近老年人对健康、医疗保健和经济福祉的个人责任的转变相关的常见问题。为了更好地了解社会、政治、经济和技术变革时代美国老年人福祉的决定因素，我们提议继续开展为期三年的关于老龄化和生命历程的合作性、多学科项目计划。我们的项目将利用威斯康星州纵向研究 (WLS) 的核心公共资源并对其进行补充。我们希望最大限度地发挥 WLS 的独特科学价值以及其他相关和可比较的人口老龄化数据来源，以追求关于健康和老龄化的社会、经济和心理因素的丰富而重要的研究议程。该提案由 3 个核心组成：管理 (A)；数据传播：文档、外展和安全（B）；补充数据收集和管理（C），将为最初的六个研究项目提供服务：临终规划对死亡质量和幸存者福祉的影响；非规范养育方式对老龄化规范转变的影响；背景下的认知老化：能力、基因和社会环境；背景下的心理老化：人格、心理健康和苦恼；工作和家庭事业对成年晚期生活成果的影响；以及威斯康星州纵向研究中的社会经济状况和健康。当我们共同努力并分享发现和方法时，我们还将分享 WLS 核心人员的支持和专业知识、项目丰富的现有数据资源以及为多个项目创建的新数据。我们打算并期望对新旧 WLS 数据进行纵向分析将解决老问题，并开辟有关健康、衰老和生命历程的跨学科探究的新领域。所有 WLS 数据将直接或通过安全数据飞地发布给更广泛的研究社区，一旦收集、清理、并记录下来。
