Abstract
The German Ageing Survey (DEAS) is a longitudinal survey for the analysis of life situations and biographies of people in the second half of their lives. The data is based on nationally representative surveying (cross-sectional and longitudinal) of some thousand participants from the age of 40 onwards.
Up to now data of the DEAS have been collected in 1996, 2002, 2008, 2011 and 2014. In 2002, 2008, 2011 and 2014, previous participants have been re-surveyed (panel).
In 2002 as in the previous survey years, the following topics
have been conducted:
- Occupational Biography, Work and Retirement
- Social Participation and Voluntary Work
- Partnership, Family and Intergenerational Relations
- Household and Social Network
- Living Arrangements and Mobility
- Economic Status and Saving
- Social and Financial Support
- Quality of Life and Well-Being
- Health and Health-Related Behaviour
- Help and Care-Dependency
- Attitudes, Norms, Values and Images of Old Age
