Grant Support
Principal Investigator: Funding Agency: National Institute of Aging: Quality
of Life, Health, and Valuation of Life by Elders: 2001 – 2004. (Annual project
award $350,000)
The purpose of this longitudinal study of older individuals is to investigate the
factors that affect an individual’s quality of life in his or her later years. Dr.
Mossey was asked to assume the role of Principal Investigator after the death
of Dr. Powell Lawton, the initial investigator. During the remaining years of
the study, the surviving members of the initial cohort of 600 persons will be
interviewed for the fourth time. This will permit evaluation of changes in
health states, attitudes, and life quality over a 6 year period.
Principal Investigator, Quantitative Studies: Funding Agency: National
Institute of Aging, U.S.D.H.H.S. "The Meaning of Self-Rated Health," 19972003. (@250,000 direct costs through 7/02). This study is conducted with Dr.
Mark Luborsky, Wayne State University, Detroit Michigan.
This longitudinal study of community-dwelling elderly aims to identify the
meanings individuals ascribe to their self-rated health, the factors that lead to
change in self-rated health, and the consequences of such change. Since the
publication in 1982 of the paper by Mossey and Shapiro showing a strong,
independent relationship between risk of dying and self-rated health, many
investigators have studied the importance of self-rated health for mortality,
2
morbidity and use of health services. While the studies consistently confirm
the initial findings of Mossey and Shapiro, no comprehensive study has been
conducted to identify the meanings individuals ascribe to their self-rated
health. This proposed research is the first of its kind. Quantitative and
qualitative research methods will be used.
Collaborating Investigator: Aging in Manitoba Social Sciences and
Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) Research Initiatives I & II, 1998 –
Present.
This research program, supported by the Social Sciences and Humanities
Research Council of Health and Welfare Canada, is a 30 year extension of a
panel study of the health needs of Manitobans begun in 1971. This initial
1971 survey was one component of the Manitoba Longitudinal Study on Aging
research program on which I was a Co-Principal Investigator with Dr. Nora
Lou P. Roos and Ms. Betty Havens. In !971, we received funding from Health
and Welfare Canada to merge the 1971 survey data with the Manitoba Health
Services Commission health care claims data for the years 1971 – 1978. This
initial grant has been extended to include the year 2001 and additional
cohorts have been added to the initial sample in 1976, 1983, 1990, 1996 and,
again in 2001.
Co-investigator/Epidemiologist, Funding Agency: Janssen Pharmaceutica :
“Uniform Outcomes Measures Research Initiative: Project Phases II and III,”
1999 – 2001. Principal Investigator: Dr. Rollin M. Gallagher
The purposes of this research are: 1) to evaluate existing Uniform Outcomes
Research undertaken by the American Academy of Pain Medicine; 2) to
develop a more comprehensive and user-friendly data collection tool and
analytic strategy for clinicians who have been treating pain patients; 3) to
reestablish a clinical practice network of pain medicine physicians who agree
to capture data from consecutive pain patients seen in their practices; 4) to
develop and conduct rigorous observational evaluations of the data,
aggregated across all participating physician practices, to develop evidence
based guidelines for clinical practice of pain patients.
Principal Investigator, Funding Agency: National Institute on Aging,
U.S.D.H.H.S. "Cost of Depressive Symptoms in the Elderly," 1993-1997.
Awarded: $660,432 (direct costs).
This 24-month longitudinal study of elderly residents of continuing care
retirement communities seeks to identify the costs (financial, psychosocial,
functional) of depression and to investigate the course of depression over
time. Two hundred and twenty-nine individuals have been enrolled; half of
these individuals have elevated levels of depressive symptoms.
Assessments take place at 6 month intervals.

Research, U.S.D.H.H.S., "Nurse Intervention with Medically Ill Elderly," 19901995.

Awarded: $676,615 (direct costs).
This randomized clinical trial was designed to evaluate the feasibility and
efficacy of a short-term interpersonal therapy for medically ill elderly who have
a subthreshold depression. This is the randomized clinical trial addressing
subthreshold in older individuals. Individuals were randomized to special care
(the short-term interpersonal therapy delivered by nurse psychiatric clinical
specialists) or to usual care. Individuals were followed for 12 months.
Analyses showed the intervention to be feasible, acceptable and efficacious in
terms of depressive symptom reduction.
Principal Investigator, Funding Agency, National Institute on Aging,
U.S.D.H.H.S., "Determinants of Recovery Among Older Women," 1984-1989.
Awarded: over $600,000 (direct costs)
This longitudinal study aimed to identify the medical, functional and
psychosocial determinants of recovery from hip fracture in older, Caucasian
women who had been ambulatory and community dwelling prior to hip
fracture. This was the first large longitudinal and comprehensive study of
older community dwelling, ambulatory and cognitively intact women that
sought to identify both psychosocial and biomedical determinants of hip
fracture recovery. Two hundred and nineteen women were enrolled shortly
following a surgical repair of their hip fracture in one of 17 hospitals in the
Philadelphia area. They were followed for 12 months with assessments at
baseline, 2, 6 and 12 months after hip fracture. Factors identified as
predicting recovery included: age, prefracture physical function, and
depressive symptoms. Individuals with depressive symptoms that persisted
over the 12 month follow-up were seen to be 9 times less likely to recover by
12 months than others of the same age and prefracture physical function.
