2024 HRS Core

The HRS 2024 Core Early Release (Version 1.0) is an public release that contains data from panel cases for each of the HRS sub-samples (HRS, AHEAD, CODA, WAR BABY, EBB, MBB, LBB, EGENX) for the 2024 Core questionnaire. It includes physical measures, blood pressure and psychosocial data but does not include results of blood tests which will be released separately.

NOTES:

EGENX households finalized on or after January 1, 2024 are considered part of the 2024 HRS data collection. Data from these EGENX cases are currently available separately in the 2022 Extended New Cohort data release. They will be combined with the 2024 HRS panel data and included in the 2024 HRS Core (Final, Version 1.0) release in the future.

In order to document question sequencing, we have provided (1) a version of the traditional box and arrow questionnaire (accessible from the questionnaire in the documentation link below) that reflects the questionnaire content at the end of the data collection period and (2) a “commented version” which includes all changes made for the 2024 instrument. Changes can be found by searching for “#@” in the document. The commented box and arrow questionnaires are available in the download set (h24qn.zip).
