The Review of Longitudinal Studies on Aging is Now Complete

The Review of Longitudinal Studies on Aging was undertaken by the Division of Aging and Seniors, Health Canada, for the CIHR - Institute of Aging. The outcome of the Review of Longitudinal Studies on Aging is composed of two parts: a database [ MS Access (604 KB) | Help ] and a working document [ PDF (1.02 MB) | Help ]. The Access database includes 55 different longitudinal studies of aging from more than 11 countries. The working document is composed of three parts: 1- "Read Me First" presents the background and the purpose of the review, 2- "List of study variables and measurements of variables" is an appendix to the database which includes a detailed listing of the variables, measure and tests used in the studies and 3- "List of references" is an extensive list of useful references.
