“…In addition to the cross-sectional data, longitudinal data were acquired by conducting follow-up interviews for the 1971 and 1976 cohorts in 1983, 1990, 1996, and 2001 and for the 1983 cohort in 1990, 1996, and 2001. Previous analyses have validated the success of the AIM sampling procedures in minimizing bias and selective attrition, as well as in achieving representativeness, initially (e.g., Mossey, Havens, Roos, & Shapiro, 1981) and at follow-up . Moreover, the modest level of nonresponse in the AIM study has not eroded the representativeness of the surviving AIM sample with respect to demographic variables (i.e., marital status and gender).…”

“…The selection of AIM subjects for each new wave involved rigorous randomization techniques, resulting in probability samples stratified by age, gender and region. Previous analyses show that the sampling procedures successfully minimized selection bias and selective attrition and achieved representativeness, initially (e.g., Mossey, Havens, Roos, & Shapiro, 1981) and at follow-up (Chipperfield, Havens, & Doig, 1997).…”

“…The Manitoba Longitudinal Study on Aging is fully described elsewhere 5 . Briefly, it merged data from extensive interviews conducted in 1971 with a large probability sample of persons aged 65 and over 6 with the data from claims filed routinely by physicians and hospitals (medical and hospital services are universally insured) documenting the health care used by the sample for the years 1970 through 1977.…”
