ELSA - wave 3
Face-to-face interview and self-completion questionnaire.
The administered questionnaire was similar to that used in previous waves. The new items included information on dental health, consumption of fruit and vegetables, receipt of state pension statements, expectation of living to 85 years and anchoring vignettes. ELSA respondents who had a main interview were asked to have a separate life history interview which collected information about respondent's employment, partners, children and the residences they lived in from their birth up until the present day. Respondent's expectations, cognitive functions, psychosocial health and walking speed were measured. Participants were also asked to fill a consent to obtain health and economic data from administrative sources.
The data collection was made on the original sample interviewed in Health Survey for England (HSE) 1998/1999/2001 aged 50 and older on March 1th, 2002. A refreshment sample of HRS 2001/02/03/04 surveys participants aged 50-52 on March 1th, 2006 were added to the survey.
