The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) is a large-scale (n= approximately 8000 people), nationally representative study of people aged 50 and over in Ireland. It collects information on cognitive function in older adults in Ireland, based on objective measures of cognitive function and self-rated memory. It also provides important information on utilisation of health and social care services and on physical and behavioural health.
