Description: The University of Michigan Health and Retirement Study (HRS) is conducted by the Survey Research Center at the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan. It surveys more than 22,000 Americans over the age of 50 every two years. Supported by the National Institute on Aging (NIA U01AG009740) and the Social Security Administration, the HRS is a large-scale longitudinal project that studies the labor force participation and health transitions that individuals undergo toward the end of their work lives and in the years that follow. Since its launch in 1992, the study has collected information about income, work, assets, pension plans, health insurance, disability, physical health and functioning, cognitive functioning, and health care expenditures. Through its unique and in-depth interviews with a nationally representative sample of adults over the age of 50, the HRS provides an invaluable, growing body of multidisciplinary data to help researchers address the challenges and opportunities of aging. The site captures the study's public research activity, including publications, correspondence, and data sets.

Description: "The Survey Research Center is the largest of the four Centers of the Institute for Social Research (ISR). For more than 50 years, the Survey Research Center has been a national and international leader in interdisciplinary social science research involving the collection or analysis of data from scientific sample surveys. First, this involves conducting basic and applied empirical survey- based research that is theoretically informed. SRC and the Institute for Social Research are pillars of empirical social science, but seek to bring their empiricism to bear on problems that are of both social and scientific importance. Second, but no less important, SRC's leadership involves the development, refinement, and propagation of the scientific method of survey research through teaching and training."
