Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE), United States, 1999-2019

ACTIVE (Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly) was a multisite randomized controlled trial conducted at six field sites with New England Research Institutes (NERI) as the coordinating center. The field sites included the University of Alabama at Birmingham, Hebrew Senior Life (formerly Hebrew Rehabilitation Center for the Aged) in Boston, Indiana University, Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Pennsylvania State University, and Wayne State University (Detroit). Data in this study are drawn from measures of cognitively demanding daily activities performed by participants who received a variety of cognitive interventions. Measures included both cognitive functioning (memory, inductive reasoning, speed processing, and general knowledge) and daily functioning (everyday problem solving, observations of daily living, complex reaction time, and general functional ability). Secondary to these measures, the study also includes data on health care and service utilization, driving habits, and mobility. Data were collected at the start of the study (baseline) as well as one, two, three, five, and ten years into the study. This collection integrates data from two previous collections (ICPSR 4248 and ICPSR 36036) and fills in gaps that existed in these two collections. In addition, this collection features composite scores for constructs like memory, reasoning speed, Short Form Health Survey (SF-36), Social Determinants of Health (SDOH), as well as data from the National Death Index and state driving records.

ACTIVE（提升独立与活力老年人的高级认知训练）是一项在六个实地站点进行的多中心随机对照试验，由新英格兰研究学院（NERI）作为协调中心。这些实地站点包括阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校、波士顿的希伯来老年生活（原希伯来老年康复中心）印第安纳大学、巴尔的摩的约翰霍普金斯大学、宾夕法尼亚州立大学以及底特律的韦恩州立大学。本研究的资料来源于接受各种认知干预的参与者所进行的认知要求较高的日常活动测量。测量指标包括认知功能（记忆、归纳推理、速度处理和一般知识）以及日常功能（日常问题解决、日常生活观察、复杂反应时间和一般功能能力）。其次，研究还包括了关于医疗保健和服务利用、驾驶习惯以及活动性的数据。数据收集始于研究开始时（基线）以及研究进行后的一、二、三、五和十年。这一数据收集整合了之前两次收集的数据（ICPSR 4248 和 ICPSR 36036），并填补了这两次收集中存在的空白。此外，本收集还包含了记忆、推理速度、简明健康调查表（SF-36）、健康社会决定因素（SDOH）等结构复合得分，以及来自国家死亡索引和州驾驶记录的数据。
