Enhancing Scientific Community Access to Add Health Data
Summary
We are in the process of substantially upgrading and expanding the archiving, documentation, and dissemination of social, biological, and contextual multilevel data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health). The intent is to make Add Health data more easily accessible, straightforward to use, and clearly documented than is currently the case, while increasing awareness and facilitating expanded use of this national scientific resource. Accomplishing the aims of this project will significantly expand the Add Health user base and multiply the scientific impact that Add Health has on the social, biomedical, and public health research communities.
