This dataset refers to wave two of the 1921-1926 (Mid-age) cohort. ALSWH began in 1996, and consisted of three cohorts; the 1973-1978 (Young) cohort, the 1946-1951 (Mid-age) cohort, and the 1921-1926 (Old-age) cohort. Each cohort received a different questionnaire, which varied in the types of questions asked. In essence, the surveys covered issues regarding overall physical and emotional health, use of health services, education and employment status, drug and/or alcohol use, diet, exercise, and family situation.
