Subject: NHATS and NSOC Final Data Released

 

Dear NHATS and NSOC Data Users,

 

Final versions of the National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS) Round 11 and National Study of Caregiving (NSOC) IV files are now available at https://nhats.org/researcher/data-access. Data files are available in both SAS and Stata formats.

 

Updated documentation (with SAS, Stata, and new R code), including revised User Guides, FAQ, crosswalks between the instruments and the codebook, crosswalks of changes from the beta to final versions, and new technical papers on weighting and income imputation can be found at https://www.nhats.org/researcher.

 

Also, make sure to save the date! The National Health and Aging Trends Study (NHATS) and the National Study of Caregiving (NSOC) will host two virtual workshops in the summer of 2023. The NHATS workshop will occur online June 26 -28, 2023, and the NSOC workshop will occur online July 31- August 2, 2023. Applications will open in early April. The workshop is designed for those with experience using NHATS or NSOC data who are working towards a completed manuscript or proposal. All users are encouraged to complete the NHATS online course for beginners beforehand. The data training portion assumes familiarity with statistical programming (e.g. SAS, STATA, R). Graduate students interested in applying are encouraged to have successfully defended their proposal before the workshop begins.

 

Thank you,

The NHATS and NSOC Team
