The CLHLS parent-child dyads datasets were collected by the Center for Healthy Aging and Development Studies (CHADS) of National School of Development at Peking University in the 2002 and 2005 waves. The datasets contain 4,478 parent-child dyads respondents among the eight provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian, Shandong, Guangdong, and Guangxi) out of the 23 provinces in CLHLS in 2002 and 2005. During the sampling process of CLHLS in 2002, either the single surviving child, or a randomly selected surviving child of the elderly participants will act as a valid sample. With the parents’ personal information on their families and health status, the survey collected the elderly participants’ adult-child’s information, including level of education, income and occupation, marriage and family, kinship network, intergenerational interaction and the change of social values. The survey aims to explore the impact of adult-child’s status on the elderly’s health and their support arrangement. The adult-child samples in 2005 came from the samples of adult-child dataset in 2002 with no newly added participants. This dataset consists of five components, including the information of 2002 elderly respondents, 2005 follow-up elderly respondents, 2002 adult-child respondents, 2005 follow-up adult-child respondents, and the deceased elderly persons during the period 2002-2005.
