    Open AccessY S Zhang, John Strauss et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2021Referências: 13

    The results show that the objectively measured indicators of physical functioning and biomarkers are independent and strong predictors of mortality risk after accounting for several additional self-reported health measures, confirming the value of incorporating biological and performance measurements in population health surveys to help understand health changes and aging processes that lead to mortality. This study also highlights the importance…

  • Ascertaining cause of mortality among middle-aged and older persons using computer-coded and expert review verbal autopsies in the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study

    Open AccessY S Zhang, Peifeng Hu et al.ARTICLEGlobal Health Action2020

    BACKGROUND: Verbal autopsy is designed to ascertain causes of death that are not registered or certified. Verbal autopsy has been validated in multiple settings but has not been as widely evaluated for older populations as for younger age groups. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to provide empirical evidence of the value of verbal autopsy interviews in the context of population-based surveys of older adults by comparing the cause-of-death assignments d…

  • External Quality Control for Dried Blood Spot-Based C-Reactive Protein Assay

    Peifeng Hu, Elizabeth Henny Herningtyas et al.ARTICLEBiodemography and Social Biology2015Referências: 14

    Measurement of C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation, in dried blood spots has been increasingly incorporated into community-based social surveys internationally. Although the dried blood spot-based CRP assay protocol has been validated in the United States, it remains unclear whether laboratories in other less-developed countries can generate CRP results of similar quality. We therefore conducted external quality monitoring for drie…

    Using the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study 2008 pilot, this paper analyzes the patterns and correlates of intergenerational transfers between elderly parents and adult children in Zhejiang and Gansu Provinces. The pilot is a unique data source from China that provides information on the direction as well as amount of transfers between parents and each of their children, and clearly distinguishes transfers between parents and childre…

    In this paper, we model the associations of childhood health on adult health and socio-economic status outcomes in China using a new sample of middle aged and older Chinese respondents. Modeled after the American Health and Retirement Survey (HRS), the CHARLS Pilot survey respondents are 45 years and older in two quite distinct provinces-Zhejiang, a high growth industrialized province on the East Coast and Gansu, a largely agricultural and poor p…

  • Indonesian Living Standards

    John Strauss, Kathleen Beegle et al.BOOKIndonesian Living Standards2004

    The Asian financial crisis in 1997–98 was a serious blow to what had been a thirty-year period of rapid growth in East and Southeast Asia. This book uses the Indonesia Family Life Surveys (IFLS) from late 1997 and late 2000 to examine changes in many different dimensions of living standards of Indonesians from just before the start of the crisis to three years after. As of late 2000, almost three years after the economic crisis began, individuals…

  • How Does Mother's Education Affect Child Height?

    Duncan Thomas, John S Strau et al.ARTICLEThe Journal of Human Resources1991

    Many studies have demonstrated that parental education has a significant positive impact on child health. This paper attempts to identify the mechanisms through which maternal education affects one indicator of child health-height conditional on age and sex. Using data from the 1986 Brazilian Demographic and Health Survey, it is shown that almost all the impact of maternal education can be explained by indicators of access to information-reading …

  • Child survival, height for age and household characteristics in Brazil

    Open AccessDuncan Thomas, John S Strau et al.ARTICLEJournal of Development Economics1990Citada por: 37Referências: 1

    The impact of household characteristics on child survival and height, conditional on age, is examined using household survey data from Brazil. Parental education is found to have a very strong positive effect on both outcomes and this is robust to the inclusion of household income and also parental heights, which partly proxy for unobserved family background characteristics. We find that income effects are significant and positive for child survi…
