*Post Summary*
The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing is a major inter-institutional
initiative led by Trinity College Dublin which aims to produce a massive
improvement in the quantity and quality of data, research and information
relating to older people and ageing in Ireland. It will involve interviews
on a two yearly basis with a large cohort of people aged 50 and over, and
will collect detailed information on all aspects of their lives, including
the economic dimension (pensions, employment, living standards etc.), health
aspects (physical, mental, service needs and usage etc.) and social aspects
(contact with friends and kin, formal and informal care, social
participation etc.)
The study will involve both survey interviews and physical and biological
measurements to be carried out by trained Nurses in specially equipped
centres and in respondent homes. The sample size envisaged for the main
survey is 8,000-10,000 people, and the project is currently being planned
across a ten-year time horizon. The study will be closely harmonised with
leading international research to ensure adoption of best practice and
comparability of results.
