Slide31Harmonized Data FilesHarmonized Datasets are created to provide harmonized measures of international aging and retirement studies.
Harmonized Datasets define variables as similarly as possible to the RAND HRS definition of a variableThese datasets are structured in a Fat Format where every individual is one recordVariable names are defined using the RAND HRS format e.g. r1work – whether the respondent is currently working in wave 1Variable names indicate how similar to the RAND HRS version of the variable.Spouse versions of most variables are also created e.g. s2work – whether respondent's spouse is currently working in wave 2
Slide32Harmonized Data FilesHarmonized ELSA – incorporates the first six waves of ELSA (2002, 2004, 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012)
Harmonized SHARE – incorporates the first, second, forth, and fifth wave of SHARE (2004, 2006, 2010, 2012)Harmonized JSTAR – incorporates the first three waves of JSTAR (2007, 2009, 2011) Harmonized KLoSA - incorporates the first four wave of KLoSA (2006, 2008, 2010, 2012)
Harmonized LASI – incorporates the pilot data of LASI (2010)
Harmonized
CHARLS - incorporates the first
two waves
of
CHARLS (2010, 2012)
Harmonized MHAS
Harmonized CRELES

Harmonized data files are either distributed through the Gateway or the originating study. In some cases the data file are created by user based on a code provided by the Gateway.
