Proper Citation: Social Environment and Biomarkers of Aging Study in Taiwan (RRID:SCR_003704)

Description: Data sets of information regarding the health and well-being of older persons in Taiwan (from 2000 and 2006), in particular the relationship between life challenges and mental and physical health, the impact of social environment on the health and well-being of the elderly, and biological markers of health and stress. The study collected self-reports of physical, psychological, and social well-being, plus extensive clinical data based on medical examinations and laboratory analyses. Examination of health outcomes included chronic illnesses, functional status, psychological well-being, and cognitive function. Questions regarding life challenges focused on perceived stress, economic difficulties, security and safety, and the consequences of a major earthquake. Biological markers were used to identify cardiovascular risk factors, metabolic process measures, immune-system activity, the hypothalamic-pituitary adrenal axis, and sympathetic nervous system activity. The study design consists of face-to-face interviews with participants drawn from a random sub-sample of participants from 27 PSUs from the 1999 Survey of Health and Living Status of the Middle Aged and Elderly in Taiwan. Hospital visits and blood and urine specimens also were collected. A second wave of SEBAS was conducted in 2006 using a similar protocol to SEBAS 2000, but with the addition of performance assessments conducted by the interviewers at the end of the home interview. * Dates of Study: -2000, 2006 * Study Features: Longitudinal, International, Anthropometric Measures * Sample Size: 27 PSUs
