1995 Change Log
Dec 22, 1995:
- Error corrected: The papers categorized as "AHEAD 1994 Working Paper
Series" is (for now) more appropriately labelled "Papers Based on AHEAD Wave 1
(1994)", as it is not yet an official series. Papers have yet to be chosen
for the series, and authors have yet to be contacted.
Dec 20, 1995:
- A listing of HRS Wave 2 Preliminary Results Workshop papers (1995) is now a
part of Papers and Publications. 17 viewable abstracts are available.
- 14 viewable abstracts were added to the 1994 AHEAD Wave 1 Working Paper
Series under Papers and Publications. In addition, paper titles were updated
and new papers added.
- Papers and Publications update: Papers from the 1994 HRS Wave 1 Working Paper
Series should now be requested through HRS Questions
(hrsquest@isr.umich.edu), not Heather Hewett, as was
previously the case.
- Web page error corrected: Under Information/Reference/HRS Information, in
the document "HRS Report to 1992 Respondents", the figure titled "Chances in
100 of Working Full-Time at: Age 62/Age 65" was not
originally the correct figure.
- Two sets of errors in the HRS Wave 1 Data Description, Version 1.0, added
to Information/Errors (Section 6, Data Description; Section D. Concepts of
Merging). Date of posting added to each error listed.
- AHEAD Overview (Information) modified: Previously it appeared in the AHEAD
Overview that AHEAD data had already been linked to Medicare files, among
others. In fact this is not yet the case; the work is still in progress. When
such linkages are available, even though access will be restricted, an
announcement will be made on the HRS and AHEAD Web Page. This holds true for
HRS linkages as well.
Dec 18, 1995:
- News item added: "HRS, AHEAD, and PSID at the ASSA Annual Meeting in San Francisco".
- News item added: "Staff Availability During the Holiday Season".
- News item added: "A Practicum on the Health and Retirement Survey".
- Working paper series (in Papers and Publications) are now listed in reverse
chronological order. The working papers within those series are now
alphabetized by author.
Dec 14, 1995:
- Web page error corrected: The official address for sending AHEAD questions and
comments is "aheadask@isr.umich.edu", which had not been
reported correctly. Please update your e-mail address listing.
- Web page error corrected: AHEAD early results workshop papers are not yet
being distributed. It was incorrectly reported that they were available by
contacting "aheadask@isr.umich.edu", and this is not the
case. They will be distributed by different means at a later date.
- Updated HRS and AHEAD Web Page credits.
Dec 07, 1995:
- EXTRACT Data Management Utilities added to Other Files of Interest.

- Abstracts for the 1995 Minority Perspectives in the HRS workshop included in
Papers and Publications section.
- Recent news link added above main page menu.

from the original AHEAD page

accommodate aspects of the AHEAD page not already present in the HRS page. Any
and all suggestions are certainly welcome.

suggested by the Social Security Administration: "By receiving the data, you are agreeing to use
conscientiously the data that have been freely provided to you, and that you will make
no effort to identify the respondents therein." now reads "By receiving these data which have been
freely provided, you are agreeing to use them for research and statistical purposes only and make
no effort to identify the respondents therein."
Sep 26, 1995:
- "SAS Code Used for HRS Wave I Income Components Creation" added to Information.
Sep 20, 1995:
- HRS Wave 2 Interview added to Data Files.
- Additional Sites of Interest updated.
- Full electronic versions of papers were removed from Papers and Publications, as only

- Updated access counter and usage statistics.
