Abstract

The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA) is initiated by the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sports in 1991 to investigate predictors and consequences of ageing. LASA has been conducted since then by the VU University and VU University Medical Center. LASA focuses on physical, emotional, cognitive and social functioning in late life, the connections between these aspects, and the changes that occur in the course of time.

The deposit covers the data collection from 1992 to 2006. The construction of a Public Use File (PUF) with LASA data has been made possible by a grant from the Data Archiving and Networked Services (DANS). With this grant, the data from multiple measurement waves have been made homogeneous between waves and documentation has been created, which enable the independent use of LASA data by researchers.
