Cognitive functioning - Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam

In the table below, entries in the left column refer to the related documentation, while the numbers in the cells of columns LASA-B to LASA-J (K in progress) refer to the corresponding LASA-data files (e.g. ‘022‘ in column B-G refers to ‘LASAB022‘, ‘LASAC022‘, ‘LASAD022‘, ‘LASAE022‘, ‘LAS2B022‘, and ‘LASAG022‘ respectively). Table entries are hyperlinks. Hovering over the waves in the header will show the years in which the corresponding measurements took place.

For more details about the LASA-waves, see Design LASA.

Note that some of the data are not yet available (in red).
