Abstract: This paper studies the education gradient associated with health reporting errors for two highly prevalent non-communicable diseases among older adults in India. We leverage a novel data set—the Longitudinal Aging Study in India (2017-18) panel survey—to unpack the sources of health reporting error in a developing-country context for the first time.
