Abstract
Key Features · The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) is a cross-national longitudinal survey of people aged 50 years and over that is modelled closely after its sister studies HRS in the USA and ELSA in the UK. It follows respondents every 2 years since 2004. · SHARE-Harmonized Cognitive Assessment Protocol (HCAP) is a supplemental dataset that provides a large battery of neuropsychological tests that complement the cognitive measures in SHARE. The aim of SHARE-HCAP is to investigate the prevalence and determinants of cognitive impairment and dementia in Europe. · The tests cover multiple domains of cognition and informant interviews, which are harmonized with other HCAP sister studies around the world, including studies in the USA, UK, India, China, and South Africa. · SHARE-HCAP respondents are a subsample of the SHARE cohort study and include 2685 individuals aged 65 years and over. · For collaboration and data access, please check https://www.share-eric.eu/data/data-set-details/share-hcap.
