Data set of extensive information on the changing circumstances of aged and disabled beneficiaries - Living, noninstitutionalized population of the continental United States from the Social Security Administration''''s Master Benefit Record who were new recipients of Social Security benefits (first payment in mid-1980 through mid-1981) or who had established entitlement to Medicare and were eligible for, but had not received, Social Security benefits as of July 1982. Based initially on a national cross-sectional survey of new beneficiaries in 1982, the original data base was expanded with information from administrative records and a second round of interviews in 1991. Variables measured in the original New Beneficiary Survey (NBS) include demographic characteristics; employment, marital, and childbearing histories; household composition; health; income and assets; program knowledge; and information about the spouses of married respondents. The 1991 New Beneficiary Follow-up (NBF) updated marital status, household composition, and the economic profile and contains additional sections on family contacts, postretirement employment, effects of widowhood and divorce, major reasons for changes in economic status, a more extensive section on health, and information on household moves and reasons for moving. Disabled-worker beneficiaries were also asked about their efforts to return to work, experiences with rehabilitation services, and knowledge of SSA work incentive provisions. The NBDS also links to administrative files of yearly covered earnings from 1951 to 1992, Medicare expenditures from 1984 to 1999, whether an SSI application has ever been made and payment status at five points in time, and dates of death as of spring 2001. For studies of health, the Medicare expenditure variables include inpatient hospital costs, outpatient hospital costs, home health care costs, and physicians'''' charges. The survey data cover functional capacity including ADLs and IADLs. For studies of work in retirement, the survey includes yearly information on extent of work, characteristics of the current or last job, and reasons for working or not working. No other data set has such detailed baseline survey data of a population immediately after retirement or disability, enhanced with subsequent measures over an extended period of time. The data are publicly available through NACDA and the Social Security Administration Website. * Dates of Study: 1982-1991 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 18,136 (NBS 1981) ** 12,677 (NBF 1991) Links: * 1982 (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/08510 * 1991 (ICPSR): http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/06118

The goal of this follow-up study of mothers who participated in the Hyperglycemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcomes (HAPO) study is to determine the levels of blood sugar during pregnancy that are linked to increased body fat in the child, as well as to determine the chances of a mother developing diabetes 8-12 years after the pregnancy. The original study examined 23,316 mother-child pairs, and researchers determined that the hyperglycemia of a mother was linked to newborn birth weight and body fat. HAPO-FUS will enroll 7,000 or the original HAPO mother-child pairs for one follow-up visit to assess body composition, blucose metabolism, medical history, and other metabolic parameters.

http://www.census.gov/population/international/data/idb/informationGateway.php

A computerized data set of demographic, economic and social data for 227 countries of the world. Information presented includes population, health, nutrition, mortality, fertility, family planning and contraceptive use, literacy, housing, and economic activity data. Tabular data are broken down by such variables as age, sex, and urban/rural residence. Data are organized as a series of statistical tables identified by country and table number. Each record consists of the data values associated with a single row of a given table. There are 105 tables with data for 208 countries. The second file is a note file, containing text of notes associated with various tables. These notes provide information such as definitions of categories (i.e. urban/rural) and how various values were calculated. The IDB was created in the U.S. Census Bureau''s International Programs Center (IPC) to help IPC staff meet the needs of organizations that sponsor IPC research. The IDB provides quick access to specialized information, with emphasis on demographic measures, for individual countries or groups of countries. The IDB combines data from country sources (typically censuses and surveys) with IPC estimates and projections to provide information dating back as far as 1950 and as far ahead as 2050. Because the IDB is maintained as a research tool for IPC sponsor requirements, the amount of information available may vary by country. As funding and research activity permit, the IPC updates and expands the data base content. Types of data include: * Population by age and sex * Vital rates, infant mortality, and life tables * Fertility and child survivorship * Migration * Marital status * Family planning Data characteristics: * Temporal: Selected years, 1950present, projected demographic data to 2050. * Spatial: 227 countries and areas. * Resolution: National population, selected data by urban/rural * residence, selected data by age and sex. Sources of data include: * U.S. Census Bureau * International projects (e.g., the Demographic and Health Survey) * United Nations agencies Links: * ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/08490

A dataset generated longitudinal study that aims to explain the relationship between age and changes in the sense of control over one''''s life, over two follow-up periods. The main hypotheses are (a) over a period of time, the sense of control declines by an amount that increases with age; (b) the change in sense of control reflects an underlying change in biosocial function, which accelerates with age; (c) higher social status slows the decline in the sense of control, possibly by preserving biosocial function; and (d) changes in biosocial function and in the sense of control have deviation-amplifying reciprocal effects that accelerate age-dependent changes in the sense of control. This was a three-wave panel survey with fixed 3-year intervals and repeated assessments of the same variables. Questionnaire topics focused on: physical health (subjective health; activities of daily living; height and weight; health conditions; expected personal longevity); health behavior (exercise, smoking, diet, alcohol use); use of medical services (medical insurance coverage, prescription drug use); work status (current employment status; title of current job or occupation and job description; types of work, tasks, or activities; description of work or daily activity and interactions; supervisory status; management position and level; work history); sense of controlextent of agreement or disagreement with planning and responsibility versus luck and bad breaks; sense of victimhood versus control; social support and participation; personal and household demographics; marital and family relations; socioeconomic status; history of adversity. * Dates of Study: 1994-2001 * Sample Size: 2,593 (Waves 1-2); 1.144 (Wave 3) * Study Features: Longitudinal Data Archives: http://www.sscnet.ucla.edu/issr/da/da_catalog/da_catalog_titleRecord.php?studynumber=I3334V1

http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/lsoa.htm

A data set of a multicohort study of persons 70 years of age and over designed primarily to measure changes in the health, functional status, living arrangements, and health services utilization of two cohorts of Americans as they move into and through the oldest ages. The project is comprised of four surveys: * The 1984 Supplement on Aging (SOA) * The 1984-1990 Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA) * The 1994 Second Supplement on Aging (SOA II) * The 1994-2000 Second Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA II) The surveys, administered by the U.S. Census Bureau, provide a mechanism for monitoring the impact of proposed changes in Medicare and Medicaid and the accelerating shift toward managed care on the health status of the elderly and their patterns of health care utilization. SOA and SOA II were conducted as part of the in-person National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) of noninstitutionalized elderly people aged 55 years and over living in the United States in 1984, and at least 70 years of age in 1994, respectively. The 1984 SOA served as the baseline for the LSOA, which followed all persons who were 70 years of age and over in 1984 through three follow-up waves, conducted by telephone in 1986, 1988, and 1990. The SOA covered housing characteristics, family structure and living arrangements, relationships and social contracts, use of community services, occupation and retirement (income sources), health conditions and impairments, functional status, assistance with basic activities, utilization of health services, nursing home stays, and health opinions. Most of the questions from the SOA were repeated in the SOA II. Topics new to the SOA II included use of assistive devices and medical implants; health conditions and impairments; health behaviors; transportation; functional status, assistance with basic activities, unmet needs; utilization of health services; and nursing home stays. The major focus of the LSOA follow-up interviews was on functional status and changes that had occurred between interviews. Information was also collected on housing and living arrangements, contact with children, utilization of health services and nursing home stays, health insurance coverage, and income. LSOA II also included items on cognitive functioning, income and assets, family and childhood health, and more extensive health insurance information. The interview data are augmented by linkage to Medicare enrollment and utilization records, the National Death Index, and multiple cause-of-death records. Data Availability: Copies of the LSOA CD-ROMs are available through the NCHS or through ICPSR as Study number 8719. * Dates of Study: 1984-2000 * Study Features: Longitudinal * Sample Size: ** 1984: 16,148 (55+, SOA) ** 1984: 7,541(70+, LSOA) ** 1986: 5,151 (LSOA followup 1) ** 1988: 6,921 (LSOA followup 2) ** 1990: 5,978 (LSOA followup 3) ** 1994-6: 9,447 (LSOA II baseline) ** 1997-8: 7,998 (LSOA II wave 2) ** 1999-0: 6,465 (LSOA II wave 3) Link: * LSOA 1984-1990 ICPSR: http://www.icpsr.umich.edu/icpsrweb/ICPSR/studies/08719
