Résumé : |
Health in later life is shaped by behavior and policies over the life course and reflects the differences between the societies in which we are ageing. This multidisciplinary book answers questions from all life course phases and its interconnections from a European perspective based on the most recent SHARE data, such as: How is our health related to personality traits and influenced by our childhood conditions and careers? Which role does our social network play? Which impacts of the different health care and societal regimes can we trace at older ages? Which are the differences and similarities across European countries ?
The Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) puts special emphasis on the interplay among the triangular connections of health, social embeddedness and the socio-economic status of older individuals. Waves 6 and 7 add three important innovations to this triangle and make SHARE a highly powerful tool for investigating ageing societies in Europe. First, Wave 6 deepens the objective measurement of health via biomarkers obtained from dried blood spot samples (DBSS). Second, Wave 7 finally achieves the cross-nationality that was demanded in the SHARE-ERIC statutes and covers all 26 continental EU member states plus Switzerland and Israel. Third, Wave 7 strengthens longitudinality reaching far back into childhood by collecting life-history data in all 28 countries. These three innovations substantially enrich the multidisciplinary SHARE data and belong together because health, economic and social status in later life emerge from complex interactions over the entire life course |
