Data from the 2021 HRS Perspectives on the Pandemic Combined Spring and Fall Mail Survey is now available. This survey was designed to assess the experiences of HRS respondents during the first year of the COVID-19 Pandemic.
Two versions of the questionnaire were fielded; the first in Spring 2021 and the second in Fall 2021. They were previously released separately, the current release combines them into a single file and adds a weight variable: CMWGTR.
