    Dynamics of Poor Health and Non-employment

    While there is little doubt that the probability of poor health increases with age, and that less healthy people face a more difficult situation on the labour market, the precise relationship between facing the risks of health deterioration and labour market instability is not well understood. Using twelve years of data from the German Socio-Economic Panel we study the nature of the relationship between ...

    Other-Regarding Preferences, Spousal Disability and Happiness: Evidence from German Couples

    This paper considers the impact of adverse health shocks that hit an individual's partner on subjective well-being. Using data on couples from the German Socio-Economic Panel for the years 1984 to 2006, I compare the losses in well-being caused by own and spousal disability using panel-regressions. I find that women and to a lesser extent men are harmed by spousal disability which is consistent with ...

    Why Is the World Getting Older? The Influence of Happiness on Mortality

    World life expectancy has risen by around 20 years in the last 50 years. This period has also witnessed rising happiness levels around the world suggesting that happiness might be one of the causes behind the decline in mortality. We investigate the relationship between happiness and mortality using the German Socio-Economic Panel. We consider doctor visits, self-reported health, and presence of chronic ...

    Between-Person Disparities in the Progression of Late-Life Well-Being

    Throughout adulthood and old age, levels of well-being appear to remain relatively stable. In this chapter, we argue that focusing on a phase of life during which this positive picture does not necessarily prevail promises to help us better understand between-person disparities in the progression of late-life well-being. In a first step, we review empirical evidence from the German Socio-Economic Panel ...

    Measurement of Health, the Sensitivity of the Concentration Index, and Reporting Heterogeneity

    Using representative survey data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) for 2006, we show that the magnitude of such health inequality measures as the concentration index (CI) depends crucially on the underlying health measure. The highest degree of inequality is found when dichotomized subjective health measures like health satisfaction or self-assessed health (SAH) are employed. Measures ...

    Langzeitkranke verlieren durch Kürzung des Krankengeldes fünf Milliarden Euro

    Am 1. Januar 1997 trat eine Krankengeldkürzung von 80 auf 70 Prozent des Bruttoeinkommens in Kraft. Ab der siebten Woche erhalten gesetzlich Versicherte Krankengeld, sie gelten als langzeitkrank. Berechnungen auf Basis des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) zeigen, dass durch diese Maßnahme innerhalb von zehn Jahren rund fünf Milliarden Euro von den Langzeitkranken zugunsten der übrigen Versicherten ...
