Swedish Adoption/Twin Study on Aging (SATSA), 1984, 1987, 1990, 1993, 2004, 2007, and 2010

The Swedish Adoption/Twin Study on Aging (SATSA) was designed to study the origins of individual differences in aging and the environmental and genetic factors that are involved. SATSA began in 1984, and six additional waves were conducted in 1987, 1990, 1993, 2004, 2007, and 2010. The questionnaire was initially sent to all twins from the Swedish Twin Registry who were separated at an early age and raised apart; the survey was also administered to a control sample of twins who were raised together. The respondents were surveyed on items that included health status, how they were raised, work environment, alcohol consumption, and dietary and smoking habits, as well as questions about personality and attitudes; this information comprised the first component. The second component was collected from a subsample composed of 150 pairs of twins raised apart and 150 pairs of twins raised together. This subsample participated in seven waves of in-person testing, which included a health examination, structured interviews, and tests on functional capacity, cognitive abilities, and memory. The data are represented according to questionnaire and time number, and correspond to each wave/year: Questionnaire 1 and In-Person Testing Time 1 were in 1984; Questionnaire 2 and In-Person Testing Time 2 were in 1987; Questionnaire 3 and In-Person Testing Time 3 were in 1990; Questionnaire 4 and In-Person Testing Time 4 were in 1993; Questionnaire 5 was in 2003; In-Person Testing Time 5 was in 2004; Questionnaire 6 and In-Person Testing Time 6 were in 2007; In-Person Testing Time 7 was in 2010. The Administrative and Cognitive datasets include data from all years/waves. The Smell Survey dataset only includes data from 1990. No years were specified for the Contact measures and Separation measures datasets. Demographic and background information includes age, sex, education, family history, household composition and employment.

瑞典老年化收养/双生子研究（SATSA）旨在探究个体在衰老过程中的差异起源，以及涉及的环境和遗传因素。SATSA项目始于1984年，后续于1987年、1990年、1993年、2004年、2007年和2010年进行了六次追加调查。调查问卷最初发送至瑞典双生子登记处的所有早年分离并分别养育的双生子，同时亦对一同养育的双生子对照组进行了调查。受访者被询问包括健康状况、养育方式、工作环境、酒精摄入、饮食和吸烟习惯等内容，以及有关个性和态度的问题；这些信息构成了第一部分。第二部分数据则来自由150对分离养育的双生子与150对一同养育的双生子组成的子样本。该子样本参与了七次面对面的测试，包括健康检查、结构化访谈以及功能能力、认知能力和记忆力测试。数据按照问卷和时间编号进行表示，对应每个波次/年份：问卷1和面对面测试时间1在1984年；问卷2和面对面测试时间2在1987年；问卷3和面对面测试时间3在1990年；问卷4和面对面测试时间4在1993年；问卷5在2003年；面对面测试时间5在2004年；问卷6和面对面测试时间6在2007年；面对面测试时间7在2010年。行政和认知数据集包含了所有年份/波次的数据。嗅觉调查数据集仅包含1990年的数据。接触措施和分离措施数据集未指定具体年份。人口统计和背景信息包括年龄、性别、教育程度、家族病史、家庭构成和就业状况。
