Abstract

The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA) is a prospective cohort study of older adults in the Netherlands, initially based on a nationally representative sample of people aged 55-84 years. The study has been ongoing since 1992, and focuses on the determinants, trajectories and consequences of physical, cognitive, emotional and social functioning. Strengths of the LASA study include its multidisciplinary character, the availability of over 25 years of follow-up, and the cohort-sequential design that allows investigations of longitudinal changes, cohort differences and time trends in functioning. The findings from LASA have been reported in over 600 publications so far (see www.lasa-vu.nl). This article provides an update of the design of the LASA study and its methods, on the basis of recent developments. We describe additional data collections, such as additional nine-monthly measurements in-between the regular three-yearly waves that have been conducted among the oldest old during 2016-2019, and the inclusion of a cohort of older Turkish and Moroccan migrants.

Funding

The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam (LASA) is largely supported by a grant from the Netherlands Ministry of Health Welfare and Sports, Directorate of Long-Term Care. The data collection in 2012–2014 (wave 3B and wave MB) was financially supported by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) in the framework of the project “New Cohorts of young old in the 21st century” (file number 480-10-014). The nine-monthly measurements among the 75 + were financially supported by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO) in the framework of the project “The Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam; a solid infrastructure for the social science of ageing in the oldest-old” (file number 481-11-014). Genotyping for the first cohort using the Axiom-NL array was financially supported by a grant from EMGO + Research Institute. Emiel O. Hoogendijk was supported by an NWO/ZonMw Veni fellowship [grant number 91618067]. Martijn Huisman was supported by an NWO Vidi fellowship [grant number 480-11-017]. Funding was provided by Ministerie van Volksgezondheid, Welzijn en Sport.
