This survey is the fourth wave of a study conducted jointly by the Institute of Gerontology at the University of Michigan (IoG) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology (TMIG). Previous waves of data were collected in November of 1987 (ICPSR 6842), November of 1990 (ICPSR 3407), and November of 1993 (ICPSR 4145). The survey was designed to create a panel dataset for use in cross-cultural analyses of aging between the United States and Japan. This is the first, and to date only, panel study designed for cross-cultural analyses on aging. Therefore, this survey represents a unique contribution to the gerontological archives for cross-cultural aging. The survey was designed to match as closely as feasible the Wave I instrument, however it had to allow for dynamic growth in areas of interest. The Wave I instrument was designed to be at least partially comparable to many pre-existing surveys of the aged. Specifically it incorporates components from the American's Changing Lives surveys conducted by Jim House et al. of the Institute for Social Research (ISR) at the University of Michigan and the 1984 National Health Interview Survey Supplement on Aging.

This study is freely available to the general public. Also available as downloadable files. The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) is a multidisciplinary and cross-national database of micro data on health, socio-economic status and social and family networks of individuals aged 50 or over which was designed after the role models of the United States Health and Retirement Study (HRS) and the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (ELSA). SHARE-Israel was added to the collection during 2005 and 2006 and required a complex adaptation of the SHARE survey instruments for implementation in Israel. In order to access the three major population groups that make up Israeli society, veteran Jewish-Israelis, Arab-Israelis and new immigrants from the former Soviet Union after 1989, it was necessary to translate the CAPI questionnaire and the drop off questionnaire into Hebrew, Arabic and Russian. Data collected include health variables (e.g., self-reported health, physical functioning, cognitive functioning, health behavior, use of health care facilities), psychological variables (e.g., psychological health, well-being, life satisfaction), economic variables such as (current work activity, job characteristics, opportunities to work past retirement age, sources and composition of current income, wealth and consumption, housing, education), and social support variables (e.g., assistance within families, transfers of income and assets, social networks, volunteer activities). Two physical performance measures were also employed. The first was grip strength, the respondent's maximum handgrip strength measured by means of a dynamometer. The second physical performance measure was walking speed, which was asked only of persons aged 75 and older. This physical measurement involved asking the respondent to walk a certain distance and measuring the time it took for the respondent to complete the task. Unique to SHARE-Israel were questions in the drop-off questionnaire regarding trauma. Respondents were asked about difficult life events that they had experienced and the degree to which they were affected by them. The events were drawn from the following areas (1) having personally suffered injury in war, in a terrorist attack, a grave illness or accident, (2) having witnessed injury or death in war, in a terrorist attack, and/or in an accident or crime, (3) having been a victim of crime, abuse, sexual harassment and/or severe economic adversity, (4) having had a close person injured or lost due to war, a terrorist attack, accident or grave illness, (5) loss of spouse and/or offspring, and (6) having provided or received long term care due to functional disability. A separate inventory chronicled respondents' exposure to the Holocaust. Also included in the drop-off questionnaire were questions regarding pension reform: which addressed respondents' awareness of the legislated delay in the age of eligibility for retirement pension in Israel, (for men, age 67 and for women, age 64). It also inquired about implications of the change in pension age, information regarding personal plans for employment or retirement in light of the change, and sources of income that would be used to bridge the period between retirement and receipt of pension, if early retirement was contemplated. Full details regarding SHARE can be located at the SHARE Web site.

The Swedish Adoption/Twin Study on Aging (SATSA) was designed to study the origins of individual differences in aging and the environmental and genetic factors that are involved. SATSA was begun in 1984, and three additional waves were conducted in 1987, 1990, and 1993. The questionnaire was initially sent to all twins from the Swedish Twin Registry who were separated at an early age and raised apart. There was also a control sample of twins who were raised together. They were surveyed on items that included health status, how they were raised, work environment, alcohol consumption, and dietary and smoking habits, as well as questions about personality and attitudes. Data were also collected starting with the second component from a subsample that was composed of 150 pairs of twins raised apart and 150 pairs of twins raised together. This subsample participated in four waves of in-person testing, which included a health examination, interviews, and tests on functional capacity, cognitive abilities, and memory.
