United States Second Longitudinal Study of Aging 1994-2000, Wave 2 1997-1998 - ICPSR
General Info
The Second Longitudinal Study of Aging (LSOA II) is a nationally representative longitudinal follow up study to the 1994 Second Supplement on Aging (SOA II). The LSOA II collected data on a cohort of 9,447 participants age 70 and over from 1994-2000. The LSOA II survey is part of the Longitudinal Studies of Aging (LSOAs) project. The LSOAs project was designed to track two cohorts of men and women ages 70 and over on changes in health status, physical functioning, and health care use over time. In addition to the LSOA II survivor and decedent interviews for Waves 2 and 3, the LSOA II includes select variables from the following 1994 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS): NHIS core questionnaire, family resources supplement, NHIS-D phase I, and the second supplement on aging. Data collection for Wave 2 of the LSOA II took place from 1997-1998.
