Mexican Health and Aging Study

MHAS

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
The Mexican Health and Aging Study (MHAS) started as a prospective panel study of health and aging in Mexico. MHAS is nationally representative of the 13 million Mexicans born prior to 1951. The survey has national and urban/rural representation. The baseline survey, in 2001, included a nationally representative sample of Mexicans aged 50 and over and their spouse/partners regardless of their age. A direct interview was sought with each individual and proxy interviews were obtained when poor health or temporary absence precluded a direct interview. The sample was distributed in all 32 states of the country in urban and rural areas. Households in the six states which account for 40% of all migrants to the U.S. were over-sampled. A sub-sample was selected to obtain anthropometric measures.

Data Center - SAFE

Data Center - Sustainable Architecture for Finance in Europe

Subject(s)
Content type(s)
Country
Research on German and European financial markets suffers from a lack of pan-European data sets. Also, existing sets do not provide a standard identification of, for example, companies. Therefore, researchers often utilize data from the United States where the integration of different databases is more advanced. As a consequence, empirical analyses are mostly based on non-European data. Because of the institutional differences, political recommendations that result from these analyses cannot – or only in a limited scope – be transferred to Europe. Against this background, the SAFE Research Data Center not only draws on the usual international data sources but also creates new European data sets, brings existing data together and processes them. The aim is to place the central research areas of SAFE on a common European data footing. Data access is provided by 'SAFE data sources' https://datacenter.safefrankfurt.de/datacenter/_databases/ and 'FiF - Repositorium für Forschungsdaten aus dem Finanzbereich (Preview version)' https://fif.safe-frankfurt.de/xmlui/
