Abstract

The tables in this file present analyses of sample representativeness for the 2016 core HRS, the 2016/2018 VBS sample, including the sample of 51+ year olds based on VBS samples obtained in 2018 for the LBB cohort added in 2016. The tables contrast both weighted and unweighted estimates for common variables, using sample weights provided in each dataset. The results are stratified by race/ethnicity.
