-In [[questionnaires:2009|2006-10]], a timed "get up and go" was added - study members had to get up from a chair, walk 3m, turn around, walk back and sit back down. In [[questionnaires:2015|2014-16]], to make this part of the test more accessible for a home environment, the walking distance was shortened to 2.44m (8ft) and the study members were no longer required to stand up and sit down.  +In [[questionnaires:2009|2006-10]], a timed "get up and go" was added - study members had to get up from a chair, walk 3m, turn around, walk back and sit back down.

-During the home interview at age 43 years, ADL questions were asked in two stages; firstly study members completed a general Disability Checklist screening questionnaire, with a more detailed, separate Disability Questionnaire filled in if they answered yes to any item in the original checklist. Data have been used to generate four summary domain variables: locomotion, reaching & stretching, dexterity & personal care.<html><br></html>+During the home interview at age 43 years, ADL questions were asked in two stages; firstly study members completed a general Disability Checklist screening questionnaire (questionnaire 'B'), with a more detailed, separate Disability Questionnaire filled in if they answered yes to any item in the original checklist (questionnaire 'C').

 During the home interviews at 53, 60-64 and 68-70 years, the screening questions for the OPCS classification were repeated followed by a question to distinguish severe or mild disability as defined in the OPCS survey.  During the home interviews at 53, 60-64 and 68-70 years, the screening questions for the OPCS classification were repeated followed by a question to distinguish severe or mild disability as defined in the OPCS survey.

 **Please Note** that the standard basket only contains physical performance variables, rather than ADL measures. The ADL variables are all standalone, for individual tasks, and summary measures have not been derived. The most recent ADL variables can be found in data libraries 'PhysCap09', 'PhysCap15' and 'PhysAct15'. Please use these as a starting point for further investigation. **Please Note** that the standard basket only contains physical performance variables, rather than ADL measures.

-  Many more physical performance variables are available, for example different recodes of the measures, converting 'times' to 'speeds'. The physical performance variables are well-documented on Skylark, if you click on a variable there will be a link to the appropriate pdf. Enquirers are strongly advised to view this information before deciding which variables to use. The recent physical performance measures can be found in libraries 'PhysPerf09' and 'PhysPerf15'.+ Many more physical performance variables are available, for example different recodes of the measures, converting 'times' to 'speeds'.
