Comparative Analysis of the Public-Use and Restricted-Use LSOA II Linked Mortality File
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Introduction The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) periodically conducts mortality followup studies through record linkage to administrative data sources for its major populationbased surveys (see NCHS Data Linkage Activities), providing a longitudinal component to nationally representative data. These linked mortality files, in general, fill research gaps by creating data resources that contain high quality socio-demographic, health, and mortality information for nationally representative U.S. samples. The mortality update for the Second Longitudinal Study on Aging (LSOA II), completed in 2006, allows researchers to examine aging-related health and risk factors collected over time with subsequent mortality.
