The BLSA Masterfile is the repository for most of the longitudinal data collected in this Study since its inception in 1958. It is organized by Types of Data; within each type are groups of variables.

Other Ancillary Databases have been established over the course of the Study. These include non-longitudinal data, data that are not stored in the traditional BLSA Masterfile and data from the Follow-up studies.

You may elect to Search the BLSA Data Dictionaries for any particular keyword.
