Introduction In this volume, the Vienna Institute of Demography of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and the Department of Economics of the Johannes Kepler University Linz present the Austrian data of the “Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe” (SHARE).

Setting up a questionnaire, choosing the sample and interviewing the respondents are the first steps of any data collection. When data are available, it is important to inform not only the scientific community but also policy-makers as well as public and private institutions about the existence of the survey and to point out what remains to be investigated for the well-being of society and the community.

This publication wants to give an overview of SHARE for Austria and to inform the public about the existence of data on elderly people and the participation of Austria in this international project. It is also meant to serve as reference for those who are interested in and want to do further analyses of the SHARE data.

The document is structured as follows: The first chapter introduces SHARE, informs about the aims, the international context, the data collection in Austria, the persons interviewed and future interview waves. Chapter 2 outlines the various aspects covered by SHARE. The survey is subdivided into 21 modules. It starts with the coverscreen (CV) module, which is crucial for linking members of a household, and the demographic (DN) module. The other 19 modules cover a great variety of aspects of ageing: physical health (PH), behavioural risks (BR), cognitive function (CF), mental health (MH), health care (HC), employment and pensions (EP), grip strength (GS), walking speed (WS), children (CH), social support (SP), financial transfers (FT), housing (HO), household income (HH), consumption (CO), assets (AS), activities (AC), expectations (EX), interviewer observations (IV) and a self-administered questionnaire (Q). Chapter 3 is the most voluminous one and contains a complete cross-tabulation by age and sex of all variables included in SHARE for the Austrian case (approximately 2,000 interviewees).

Funding for the SHARE data collection was mainly provided by the European Commission within the 5th Framework Programme (project QLK6-CT-2001-00360 in the thematic programme area ‘Quality of Life’). Additional funding came from the US National Institute on Ageing (U01 AG09740-13S2, P01 AG005842, P01 AG08291, P30 AG12815, Y1-AG-4553-01 and OGHA 04-064). Some SHARE countries also had national co-funding. In three countries, data were mainly nationally funded: Austria (by the Austrian Science Foundation, FWF, project number P-15422), Belgium (by the Belgian Science Policy Administration) and Switzerland (by BBW/OFES/UFES). Acknowledgements We are grateful to Karsten Hank and Stefanie Stuck from MEA (Mannheim Research Institute for the Economics of Aging) and to Christine Atteneder (Department of Economics, Johannes Kepler University Linz) for their assistance and helpful comments. We also want to thank Belinda Aparizio Diaz for computer assistance and Elke Pscheiden who invested a lot of time and effort in layouting the tables.

1 SHARE

1.1 How SHARE was born

SHARE is a truly multidisciplinary and also an international endeavour. Although the project was initiated by economists, the research team was characterised by a good balance of scientists representing many disciplines: demography, economics, sociology, epidemiology, statistics, social psychology, psychiatry, public health and many more. The main idea has been to provide comparable information on all aspects of ageing in European countries on the basis of professional surveys that take into account the longitudinal aspect of the phenomenon, namely that problems and solutions change as individuals age. For this reason, it was imperative to do a panel survey where the same individuals or families are observed over time. Existing surveys are unable to accomplish this task, because some are based on general samples (e.g., the European Community Household Panel Survey, ECHP), which means that the focus on the problems of older persons is not strong enough, while others are only available for individual countries (e.g., the English Longitudinal Survey of Ageing, ELSA) or have different focuses (e.g., the European Social Survey).

Luckily, there was a model, namely the American Health and Retirement Survey (HRS). Ever since it was started in 1992, it has been a huge success in terms of scientific research. The data have been used by researchers from many disciplines to prepare more than 1,000 scientific papers and numerous policy questions have been addressed.

SHARE was created to follow this model, but it also faced new challenges. Comparability with existing surveys on ageing (HRS and ELSA) was one goal; the other goal was to accommodate the needs of the different European countries. On the one hand, the survey had to cater to a wide variety of social institutions specialising on health care or retirement in the countries it covered; on the other hand, the setup and content of the questionnaire had to be strictly comparable across countries so as to allow researchers to use the data quickly without having to go back to the national institutions. Coming to terms with this challenge took up most of the time in the development of the survey instrument.

SHARE went into the design phase in January 2002. Members of all countries, representing a wide range of disciplines, formed working groups to produce a raw instrument in English language. They also met with leading researchers from HRS and ELSA to learn from their experience and pitfalls. The first version was piloted in the UK and substantially revised and shortened before it was translated into the national languages. The survey was separately translated into all languages of the SHARE member countries, which meant, among others, to produce separate translations into German German, Swiss German and Austrian German. Based on quota samples in most countries, pilots were performed on a large scale during June 2003, which led to further changes and corrections. A pre-test based on genuine probability samples (100 respondents in each country plus spouses) was carried out in all countries in February 2004, before the first wave of data collection was done between April and October 2004. Due to financial problems, data collection was somewhat delayed in Belgium and France, but these data are now available in the first release as of April 2005.

Collection of data for the first wave is under way in latecomers such as Ireland, Israel, Poland and the Czech Republic.

1.2 Aims of SHARE

Europe’s population is becoming older and older and population projections predict that in 2050 about half of the EU-15’s population will be aged 50 or above (Scherbov and Mamolo1 2006). In view of such an important shift in the composition of the population, it was high time to collect comparable data on individual life circumstances for the growing group of elderly persons in Europe. “Understanding ageing and how it affects individuals in the diverse cultural settings of Europe is the main task of SHARE” (Börsch-Supan et al. 2005, p. 8).

The “Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe” (SHARE) is the first European dataset that includes accurate cross-national information on economic circumstances, health, well-being, integration into family and social networks for the following ten continental European countries: Austria, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. It aims at understanding the ageing process in Europe in order to turn “potential challenges into chances” (Börsch-Supan 2005, p.1). Learning from the English Longitudinal Survey on Ageing (ELSA) and the US Health and Retirement Study (HRS), SHARE is a “multidisciplinary enterprise with a strong emphasis on looking always from at least three angles: economics, health, and social networks” (Börsch-Supan et al. 2005, p. 18).

SHARE is a joint endeavour of some 150 researchers and the largest socio-economic research project sponsored by Directorate-General (DG) Research (Börsch-Supan 2005). These facts demonstrate that SHARE is a cooperative venture of the leading scientific communities in Europe and the USA. First results have been published and a number of promising analyses combining the three dimensions of SHARE—i.e. health, economic conditions, family and social environment—are envisaged.

1.3 Data collection

SHARE is based on probability samples in all participating countries, and represents the non-institutionalised population aged 50 and older. Since spouses of persons aged 50 and above were also interviewed, some persons in the dataset are younger than 50. “Release 1” comprises data on an unweighted total of 22,777 individuals in 15,537 households collected between April and October 2004.2 SHARE has an open access policy. As the survey has been financed by public money, scientific research should profit from it to the maximum possible extent. From April 2005 onwards, data can be accessed by all researchers free of charge.3 1 The simulations are based on the medium assumptions outlined in the paper by Scherbov and Mamolo

(2006). 2 An early incomplete release of SHARE data (called “Release 0”) was created in November 2004. The

publication Börsch-Supan et al. (eds.) (2005) Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe – First results from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe is based on “Release 0”.

The weighted average response rate is 61.8% among the ten SHARE countries, in which data collection took place in 2004, and the within-household response rate4 is 86.0% (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005). Comparisons with three prominent other European surveys—i.e. the quarterly European Union Labour Force Survey (EU-LFS), the European Community Household Panel (ECHP) and the European Social Security Survey (ESS)—show that the key statistics on employment, income, education and health are very similar and rarely statistically different (Börsch-Supan et al. 2005). SHARE is a reliable dataset and contains all essential elements on the population aged 50 and above in Europe.

The data were collected using a computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) programme supplemented by a self-completion paper-and-pencil questionnaire. The bulk of the SHARE management work was done at the Mannheim Research Institute for Economics of Ageing (MEA) and CentERdata, a survey research institute affiliated with Tilburg University in the Netherlands. Programming was done centrally by CentERdata. Data collection is still ongoing. In Belgium, data were collected in 2005, Israel started in 2005, and supplementary data5 were collected in some countries. These new data will be included in “Release 2”, i.e. the final release, which is scheduled for autumn 2006. “Release 2” will also include an extensive set of generated and imputed variables on income and assets.

1.4 Austrian SHARE data

As it is very important to understand which individuals were interviewed, this chapter briefly describes the persons included in the SHARE data as well as some aspects of the data collection in Austria.

The target population “consists of all people living in residential households who have 50 years of age or more, plus their (possibly younger) partners” (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005, p. 88). Data were collected by national, mainly private survey institutes. In Austria, this task was assigned to IMAS (“Institut für Markt- und Sozialanalyse”, an Austrian market research institute). Most countries had registers of individuals that permitted selecting the sample. In Austria, telephone directories6 were used as sampling frames and a screening phase was required in order to assess the age-eligibility status of the sampled households.7

The Austrian target population were all households with at least one German-speaking member born in 1954 or earlier. All German-speaking residents in the sample who were born in 1954 or earlier and their spouses/partners at the time of the interview were selected for

4 The within-household response rate is defined as the ratio between the number of responding

individuals and the number of eligible persons in these households (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005, p. 99).

5 The supplementary samples are the so-called “vignette samples”. “Vignettes” are little stories (e.g., Someone is told the following story: “Hans (imaginary person) has a headache. Does he feel good or bad?”), which make it easier to compare subjective answers across countries.

6 Greece and Switzerland also used telephone directories as sampling frames. 7 In more detail, a two-stage sampling was used: At first, 100 sample points were identified across 2

dimensions (9 regions and 3 city-size categories). Within these 100 strata, a random sample was drawn from the telephone directory (according to age adequacy).

interviews. The target population does not include individuals living in institutions for the elderly or in prisons (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005).

The Austrian SHARE data include an unweighted total of 1,986 individuals—820 men and 1,166 women—in 1,455 households, with a household response rate of 58.1% and an individual response rate of 87.3% (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005, p. 90ff). The Austrian household response rate of 58.1% indicates that in 58.1% of all households at least one person was willing to answer the questionnaire. These 58.1% are an unweighted total of 1,455 households. The individual response rate of 87.3% shows that 87.3% of all eligible persons in the 1,455 households were successfully interviewed.

All eligible individuals yield a total of 1,986 persons. Excluding those with missing birthdates slightly reduces the sample to 1,969 individuals. Hence the sample includes the following persons:

• persons aged 50 or older, • their partners, if they are living in the same household, even if they are less than 50

years old, • their parents or parents-in-law, if they are living in the same household (who will

definitely be older than 50), • their children, if they are living in the same household and are already aged 50 or

older, • their relatives such as brothers or sisters, if they are living in the same household and

are aged 50 or older, • other persons aged 50 and older, if they are living in the same household.

The sample does not include people such as children or grandchildren below age 50 who live in the same household. Moreover, as already mentioned above, SHARE does not capture individuals living in institutions.8 Since SHARE is designed as a longitudinal survey, future waves of SHARE will also include persons living in institutions for the elderly, as SHARE follows the individuals over time.

In order to have a representative sample, weights were designed both on the individual and on the household level. For every country participating in SHARE, the weights take into account the distribution of persons aged 50 and above by age and sex. There are no weights for individuals below 50, as these persons are only included if they are partners of a person aged 50 and above. These people are not a representative sample of the population below 50 years of age.

1.5 Following waves

From the very beginning, SHARE was designed as a longitudinal survey, i.e. individuals are observed as they age over time, adapt to changed health, economic and family circumstances. Data with time dimensions allow the analysis of such institutional changes as pension reforms or changes in health service. Currently the SHARE management group headed by MEA 8 As an exception, in Denmark persons living in institutions for elderly were also included in the sample.

works on the design of the follow-up to the current baseline data and has therefore started to develop the European Longitudinal Ageing Survey requested by the European Council in Lisbon in March 2000 (EC 2001).

Wave 2 for SHARE is scheduled to start in October 2006 and will last until late spring 2007.9 SHARE will expand and will include the new accession countries. The new SHARE countries (Ireland, Poland, and the Czech Republic) will have their first wave at that time. In addition, the SHARE team cooperates with non-European countries (Japan and Korea) to conduct a similar comparable study there. In analogy to the American HRS, a two-year survey schedule is planned for the more distant future. Moreover, a module on life histories focusing on employment, family affairs and health is planned as an interim wave for 2008/2009.

2 Overview on SHARE for Austria In this chapter, we want to introduce the different aspects captured by SHARE and present descriptive results on the Austrian data. The current publication is based on weighted data and is therefore limited to individuals aged 50 and above. It uses individual weights for modules that concentrate on individuals, e.g., the modules on demographics, physical health or employment.10 Household weights are applied to modules referring to the household level, e.g., those on housing or consumption.11 The first module (coverscreen) contains basic information on the unweighted sample, all other modules are limited to persons aged 50 and older and take into account weights.

Apart from the 21 modules of the main SHARE questionnaire, an additional seven modules were produced that include weights, generated variables on education, health, assets, income, support and additional information for the household coverscreen.12

2.1 Coverscreen (CV)

At the beginning of the computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI), one adult person in a household (household informant) was asked to provide the name, sex, age, marital status and relationship of each household member. Once the coverscreen module was completed, the eligibility status of each person in the household was automatically determined.

The coverscreen module gives a first overview of the household. It is essential for identifying the persons eligible for interviews in the following modules, for merging the data and for finding couples. Some modules concerning households rather than individuals were answered by the designated family, housing, or financial respondents only. These respondents were defined in the coverscreen module.

In most cases, the family respondent was the first eligible person in a household, but for some households another person was chosen to answer questions on such issues as children and social support. The person most familiar with housing matters was chosen as household respondent, and the one most familiar with finances was asked to be the financial respondent. If the first respondent said that finances were kept totally separate, all eligible persons within a household had to answer the questions on financial transfers and assets (for an overview see Table 1 in chapter 3).

Before applying weights, we provide some basic information on the unweighted sample. It includes 1,986 individuals (820 men and 1,166 women). For a total of 1,969 individuals (816 men and 1,153 women) the birthdates were coded and therefore the age could be calculated. Figure 1 shows the distribution of Austrian respondents by sex and age. Persons below age 50 are partners of individuals aged 50 and above. The very low number of

10 More exactly, we applied so-called calibrated individual weights. 11 We applied so-called calibrated household weights. 12 Generated variables are available online:

men below 50 can be explained by the fact that these men are partners of women aged 50 and above and that male partners are, on average, three years older than their female partners (Austrian Central Statistical Office 2005). Figure 1: Unweighted distribution of Austrian respondents by sex and age

The youngest Austrian respondent was a woman aged 35, the oldest was a 99-year-old woman. The unweighted total of 1,969 respondents live in 1,455 households including 954 households with one eligible person, 488 with two eligible individuals, and 13 households with 3 interviewed persons (see Figure 2). The reader should bear in mind that the number of interviewed persons is not identical with the number of persons living in the corresponding household.

As mentioned above, there are no weights for individuals below 50 and when we apply weights, we have to restrict the calculations to those aged 50 and older. This leaves us with 1,910 individuals (808 men and 1,102 women). Our weights leave the marginal totals unchanged (808 men and 1,102 women). The description of the following modules is based on weighted data.

2.2 Demographics (DN)

Demographic characteristics such as age, sex, country of birth, citizenship, educational level and marital status are among the most important factors for analysing a population and are included in this module. Married couples had to disclose the year of their marriage. For persons living together with a spouse or a partner, the partner was an eligible person and was interviewed separately. All information on the partner can be linked to the respondent by using the corresponding identification numbers. Those who were married and lived separated from their spouse, as well as divorced and widowed persons were asked to state the year of separation. Divorced or widowed respondents were asked to state the year of birth of their former partner and his or her educational degree. Unfortunately, SHARE does not cover the whole partnership biographies but only contains information on the respondents’ current marital status and their current or last partner.13

The demographics module also contains detailed information on parents. If the respondent’s parents were still alive, he/she was asked about their health status, co-residence with the respondent and the distance between the respondent’s and the parent’s place of residence. The demographics module concludes with basic information on siblings (number of siblings and number of brothers and sisters still alive).

Our weighted sample comprises 808 men and 1,102 women, i.e. there is a dominance of women in the dataset. Figure 3 shows the distribution of Austrian respondents aged 50 and above by sex and age. The relatively high number of women aged 80 and above as compared to men is due to losses of men during World War II and women’s higher life expectancy.

13 It is planned to collect partnership biographies in one of the following waves.

The marital status of Austrian elderly shows striking differences by sex (Figures 4a

and 4b). Especially at higher ages, i.e. 70 years and above, the percentage of widowed persons was much higher among women as compared to men. In the age group 70 to 79 years, 18% of Austrian men and 55% of Austrian women were widowed; among the interviewed persons aged 80 and above, 37% of the men and three out of four women were widowed. The main reasons for these findings are once more women’s higher life expectancy and fatal casualties during World War II. Figure 4a: Marital status of Austrian men aged 50 and above by age

2.3 Physical health (PH)

In the physical-health module, participants were first asked about their self-assessed health status, whether or not they have had a chronic or long-term illness and to what extent they have been limited in terms of physical activity as a result of health problems.

The respondents were then asked whether they had been diagnosed as having had a chronic disease during their lifetime and whether they had ever been bothered by physical symptoms lasting at least six months. To answer these questions, respondents could choose from 14 diseases and 11 described symptoms (Mackenbach et al. 2005). Figure 5 shows the prevalence of self-reported chronic diseases for Austria. Among men, the highest rates were found for hypertension, followed by high cholesterol, heart disease and diabetes. Among females, striking numbers suffered from hypertension, followed by high cholesterol, arthritis/rheumatism, and osteoporosis. With regard to cancer, participants were asked in which organ or part of the body they currently had or had had cancer, with 24 possible categories to choose from. Respondents were also asked about medication, namely whether they currently took any medication at least once a week; for answering this question, they could choose from a list of 14 types of drugs.

To calculate the Body Mass Index (BMI), respondents were asked to state their height and weight. The next two groups of questions concerned eyesight and hearing. Further questions involved the use of dentures, inquiring as to whether the respondents were having problems with biting or chewing food.

Finally, limitations regarding the ability to engage in the typical physical activities of daily life were measured using self-reports. Included were both “Activities of Daily Living” (ADL)—which include dressing, getting in and out of bed, eating, etc.—and “Instrumental Activities of Daily Living” (IADL) such as preparing meals, shopping, making phone calls, etc. (Mackenbach et al. 2005). The respondents were also asked whether the help they were receiving met their needs.

2.4 Behavioural risks (BR)

In the behavioural risk module, all eligible individuals were asked about their health behaviour with regard to tobacco smoking, alcohol consumption and physical activity.

First, the participants were asked whether they had ever smoked on a daily basis, whether they currently smoked, if so, for how many years they had smoked; and if they had quit smoking, at what age. For each type of tobacco—i.e. cigarettes, cigars/cigarillos and pipes—participants were asked whether they smoked this product now and how much they smoked on average per day.

The participants were then asked how often they had consumed alcoholic beverages—such as beer, wine, cider, spirits or cocktails—over the past six months. The frequency of drinking beer, wine or hard liquor was evaluated in separate questions, where the participants were asked how often they had consumed more than two drinks (‘units’, being cans or glasses) in a single day over the past six months.

SHARE also asked two questions about physical activity. The first concerned vigorous activities such as sports, strenuous housework or a job involving physical labour. The second question on physical activity concerned those activities that require a moderate level of energy, such as gardening, cleaning the car or taking a walk. For both questions, the individuals were asked how often they engaged in such activities; this could be more than once a week, once a week, one to three times a month or hardly ever/never.

Figure 6 shows the prevalence rates for those currently smoking, drinking alcohol regularly (five times or more per week), and hardly ever or never engaging in any physical activity requiring a moderate level of energy. Among men the proportion of those who regularly drink alcohol was strikingly large in comparison to that among women. There were

Page 17: Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE ... · Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE First Results for Austria Research Report 31 Isabella Buber,

SHARE for Austria 17

also many more male than female smokers. On the other hand, the proportion of men hardly ever engaging in physical activities was lower than that of women. Figure 6: Prevalence of behavioural risk factors among Austrians aged 50 and above

2.5 Cognitive function (CF)

In the cognitive function module, the participants’ reading, writing and memory skills were rated or tested. The reading and writing skills were self-reported with performance ranging from excellent to very poor. The word memory test is a sophisticated and useful instrument for the diagnosis of cognitive impairment. As Figure 7 shows, the average number of words recalled decreases strongly with age from 5.8 to around 3.7, for men and women alike.

To check for mental confusion, individuals were asked single questions about which day of the week, day of the month, month and year it was. Then mental ability was tested whereby the participant had to complete five simple numerical calculations with an increasing degree of difficulty. The interviewers stated in the questionnaire whether they had observed any factor that might have influenced the respondent’s test performance. To validate whether the participant completed the task alone or might have had help in answering the questions, the interviewers stated whether other persons were present during this section of the interview.

2.6 Mental health (MH)

A person’s mental health is an important aspect of everyday life. The relevance of mental health as an indivisible part of health is widely accepted. Mental illness can drastically reduce the quality of life of those affected and their families. Good mental health is important for individuals as well as for society. At the individual level, it enables people to realise their intellectual and emotional potential and to find and fulfil their roles in social and working life. At the society level, good mental health is important for social and economic welfare. Mental disorders are common; estimates for the adult population in the EU that has suffered from some form of mental ill-health and mental disorder within the past 12 months range from 20% to 27% (EC 2004, Wittchen and Jacobi 2005). Late-life depression is a common disorder affecting 10% to 15% of the population above age 65 (Beekman et al. 1999).

SHARE devotes one module to mental health and, for the first time, provides comparable data on mental health and depressions for Europe. Further interesting results are expected from the longitudinal data. All eligible individuals were asked whether they have felt sad or depressed, whether they have felt guilty, have had problems with sleeping and whether they have kept up their interests. Other questions concerned irritability, appetite, fatigue, concentration, enjoyment, tearfulness and depressions. Based on these items, the EURO-D scale14 could be calculated, i.e. a measure developed by the EURODEP consortium that was validated in an earlier cross-European study of depression prevalence (Prince et al. 1999).

A first comparative analysis of SHARE is consistent with previous studies and shows that depressions are prevalent among women, older people, those who are not married, and

14 The EUROD-scale is implemented in the module on generated health variables.

those who live alone (Dewey and Prince 2005). In the Austrian SHARE data, we also found strong gender differences: 22% among men and 36% among women declared to have felt sad or depressed within the past month. Especially women aged 70 years or older admitted to have had such feelings in a much higher percentage than did men (Figure 8).

2.7 Health care (HC)

Ageing is associated with increasing health problems and morbidity. Sick persons consult medical doctors, are treated in hospitals or nursing homes, they receive home care, professional care or some domestic help. Sick individuals might have to forgo care because they cannot afford it or because it is not available. Many patients have to pay expenditures out of their own pockets, if services or drugs are not covered or reimbursed by public or private insurances. Moreover, a person’s health insurance system—public, private or voluntary—is very important in case of illness.

Little is known about the way older people get care. SHARE dedicates one module to health-services utilisation and health-care insurances and closes the lack of homogeneity in data collection among countries (van Doorslaer et al. 2004). The multidisciplinarity and longitudinal perspective of SHARE allows us to better understand how elderly Europeans get their care in the wide variety of health-care systems. The output of these studies might lead to projections of health-service utilisation and might serve as a basis for future health-policy decisions in Europe.

Questions on health-service utilisation within the past 12 months included consultations of general practitioners, specialists and dentists, waiting times for consultations, overnight stays in hospitals, reasons for staying in hospitals, inpatient and outpatient surgeries, waiting times for surgeries, and stays in nursing homes. Various kinds of care such as professional nursing care, home care for domestic tasks or meals-on-wheels constituted another part in the health-care module. Those who had received care were asked about the

Page 20: Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE ... · Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE First Results for Austria Research Report 31 Isabella Buber,

First Results for Austria

20

duration and intensity of the care received. Care forgone because of costs and unavailability, as well as out-of-pocket expenses for care were the negative aspects of health care captured by SHARE. Out-of-pocket expenses were divided into (1) hospital inpatient care, (2) outpatient care, (3) expenses for prescribed drugs, and (4) expenses for care in nursing homes, day care-centres, and home-care services. Finally, the health-care module also included questions on basic health insurance, voluntary health insurance and the amount paid for voluntary health care.

First comparative analyses with SHARE confirm a high level of health-service utilisation in old age with the interesting exception of annual dental checks that decrease with age, significantly more medical consultations and more medications taken by women as compared to men, as well as a strong correlation between education and health-service utilisation (Santos-Eggimann et al. 2005).

A first look at overnight stays in hospitals among elderly Austrians reveals increasing percentages with age (Figure 9): Among men and women below 70 less than 20% had been in a hospital overnight during the past 12 months. However, 23% of all men and 30% of all women aged 70 to 79 reported at least one overnight stay in hospital, and among our oldest respondents (aged 80 and more) 39% of all men and 30% of all women were in a hospital overnight at least once. Again we want to point out that the SHARE sample does not include institutionalised persons. Figure 9: Elderly Austrians with at least one overnight stay in hospital during the past 12 months

Out-of-pocket payments for outpatient care are rather modest among elderly

Austrians, whereas out-of-pocket expenditures for prescribed drugs are a non-negligible financial burden for them (Figure 10): Roughly one quarter had no out-of-pocket expenses for drugs, one third paid a rather modest amount (between 1 and 99 euros), while one third spent between 100 and 999 euros during the past year. Further analyses are needed to shed more light on these financial burdens for elderly persons in Austria.

2.8 Employment and pensions (EP)

In the employment module all eligible individuals were asked about their current job situation. Six categories were offered: worker, retired, unemployed, disabled, homemaker and “other”. Work and retirement were the two prevalent economic activities in the SHARE sample. Figures 11a and 11b indicate the low labour utilisation rates in Austria. Already at ages 50–59, only 64% of all eligible men, and 37% of all eligible women were still working and this number drops quickly. At age 60 and above most of the eligible persons were retired. The lower labour force participation among women reflects a cohort effect and consequently also leads to lower pension entitlement among women at older ages.

Those currently not employed (including those who already retired) were asked whether they had ever worked. Further job characteristics were recorded for those who currently had or recently had had a job (e.g., whether they worked in one job or had several jobs, employment status, start of job, terms of contract, hours contracted per week, hours worked per week, number of months working, working in public or private sector, size of company). In addition, respondents were asked about their job position and general satisfaction with the job including how demanding the job was, whether it allowed for skill enhancement, job security, job advancement, etc. and finally also about their attitude towards retirement. They were also asked about the income they earned (amount, frequency and composition). Similar though less comprehensive questions on job and payment characteristics were also asked with respect to the secondary job (if applicable). The main

Page 23: Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE ... · Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE First Results for Austria Research Report 31 Isabella Buber,

SHARE for Austria 23

characteristics with respect to the last job (years of working in last job, employment status, size of firm, responsibility for supervising others) were recorded for those who had ever worked, but were not currently employed.

Respondents who were currently retired were asked in detail about their reason for retiring, their attitudes towards retirement and their income in 2003. Those who were currently unemployed or disabled were asked about the reason for their current job status. The income source in retirement was then analysed and respondents were asked when they had first received their old-age pension and how long they had already received it, what was the average payment in 2003 and some further details on its composition. Additionally, all respondents were asked about any regular payments they had received during the year 2003. For each of these regular payments, they were asked for how long they had received them and what had been the average amount of payment. Finally, they were asked about the type of pensions they were entitled to. For each type of pension entitlement, they were asked whether it included health insurance, whether it was compulsory or voluntary, how many years they had been paid for, etc.

The SHARE questionnaire contains income-related questions in different modules.15 Besides the employment module, income variables can also be found in the household income module (HH), the housing module (HO) and the assets module (AS). All income variables were used to construct gross total annual income variables at the individual as well as at the household level. These generated variables are available online.16 These data should be used for further analyses. For the construction of generated income variables and further details on imputation we refer to Brugiavini et al. 2005.

To sum up, SHARE offers a unique dataset with regard to the composition of the pension entitlements of already retired people as well as future pension entitlements and their composition of those still working. Hence, it allows a detailed analysis of the prevalence and future development of the second (private occupational pension arrangements) and third pillars (purely private old-age provision) of the pension system which are rather weak in Austria as compared to the public pensions that constitute the first pillar (cf. Brunner et al. 2005, p. 243).

2.9 Grip strength (GS)

Grip strength is a strong predictor of functional limitations and disability. Grip strength was measured using a hand-held dynamometer twice, using both hands (Mackenbach et al. 2005). For the first right-hand measurement, Figure 12 shows that the average grip strength decreases strongly with age from 47.3 to 31.4 kg among men, and from 30.8 to 19.0 kg among women. 15 The SHARE publication (Börsch-Supan and Jürges 2005, section 6.1) includes a more thorough

discussion on the construction of income with a particular focus on assessing the relevance of corrections for differences in purchasing power, in household size, owner occupation housing (through imputed rent), and tax and social security contributions paid.

2.10 Walking speed (WS)

This test involved recording how much time it took the respondents to walk a distance of 250 centimetres at their usual walking speed. Only those aged 75 years and older who felt safe and who were not suffering from any health problems that prevented them from walking were asked to do the test. The length of time spent walking was recorded in two examinations, during which the interviewer recorded the type of floor surface and the type of walking aid used during the test.

2.11 Children (CH)

The questions in the children module were put to the family respondents with at least one child. For all children who were still alive (including foster, adopted and stepchildren as well as children of the partner) sex, year of birth, whether it was a natural child, and the distance to the place of the child’s residence were asked. Most children lived at a distance that allowed frequent personal contacts (Figure 13).

For up to four children17 additional information was collected on their marital status, contact with the child, when he or she had left the parental household, employment status, basic and further education. Moreover, the respondents were asked how many children this child had, and what was the year of birth of the youngest child. Among all respondents, the average number of children was 1.93. If a respondent had more than four children, the data contain only the basic information mentioned above.

2.12 Social support (SP)

Older people give to and receive practical help from other family members in many ways. The SHARE questionnaire investigated three crucial areas of family support: personal care received from outside the household, care given to others outside the household, and looking after grandchildren. All female family respondents were asked to answer the questions in the social support module.

The family respondents were asked whether they personally or their spouses or partners had received help from any family member, friend or neighbour outside the household during the past twelve months. They were also asked to state who had provided this help, and how often and how many hours they had been helped. About 29% of all respondents reported to have received help, whereby older persons had received help more often than younger persons (Figure 14). Moreover, information on the type of help was collected (e.g., personal care, practical household help or help with paperwork).

17 The four children were selected as follows: The oldest four children living closest to their parents were

chosen (see readme.txt at the SHARE homepage).

All eligible persons were asked whether and whom they had given help to (including family members outside the household, friends or neighbours), as well as the type and frequency of help. These questions were asked for up to three family members outside the household. About 25% of all respondents reported to have given help, whereby older persons had given help less often than younger persons (Figure 14). Additionally, those who had grandchildren were asked whether and how often they had looked after their grandchildren during the past 12 months. Finally the respondents who did not live in a single household were asked whether they had given personal help to someone living in the same household or whether they had received personal care from someone in the household.

2.13 Financial transfers (FT)

The questions in the financial transfer module were put to those respondents who had stated to be the financial respondent in the household and to those respondents who had indicated that finances were totally separate.

The financial transfer module captured two types of transfers: gifts and cash transfers. All respondents were asked whether they had made a financial or material gift of 250 Euro or more during the past 12 months and to whom and for which reason this gift had been made as well as the amount that was given. All respondents were then asked whether they had received a financial or material gift of 250 Euro or more during the past 12 months. The donors of these gifts as well as the amount and the reasons for making the gift were recorded. Finally, the respondents were asked whether they had ever received a gift or inheritance worth more than 5,000 Euro and the amount, year of receipt and the donor were recorded. Hence, for each transfer the respondents provided information about the donor and recipient, the value and motive.

SHARE for Austria 27

As indicated in Figure 15, the general trend is that older Austrians are much more likely to give financial gifts than to receive them, and further analysis indicates that financial transfers are predominantly directed to descending generations—primarily children and, with increasing own age, to grandchildren (Börsch-Supan et al. 2005, p.181).

2.14 Housing (HO)

The questions in the housing module were put to the household respondents and aimed at obtaining basic information on housing and living arrangements as well as the residential mobility of the elderly Austrian population covered by SHARE. As mentioned earlier, income-related questions in the housing module were used to construct gross total annual income variables at the individual as well as at the household level. Moreover, wealth-related variables were constructed based on the housing and assets modules. Both sets of generated variables are available online18 and should be used for further analyses.

As argued in Kohli et al. 2005, home ownership and economic well-being are closely linked and hence “home ownership and pensions may to some extent be seen as alternative routes to social security in old age” (Kohli et al. 2005, p. 42). As indicated in Figure 16, ownership status decreases with age. In part, this effect can be explained by a cohort effect. During the economic boom of the 1950s and 1960s, ownership rates increased considerably. In addition to ownership status, detailed questions on the rent payment were asked. Respondents who owned an apartment/house were asked in which way the property had been acquired, whether mortgages and loans had to be paid and whether they had second homes or other real estate.

18 Generated variables are available online:

Further questions concerned the size and equipment of residences and their immediate environment. To capture residential mobility, there was a question about the duration of stay in the present accommodation. A key issue in SHARE is to yield more insight into the potential of physically impaired people to remain in their own home. Figure 16: Ownership status among Austrians aged 50 and above

2.15 Household income (HH)

The questions in the household income module were put to the household respondents. The module investigated whether any household member (except the respondent) had contributed to the household income and what was the amount he/she had contributed. It was also recorded whether the household had received any other payments such as housing allowances, child benefits, poverty relief, etc. and the respective amounts. As mentioned earlier, income-related questions in the household income module were used to construct gross total annual income variables at the individual as well as at the household level.

2.16 Consumption (CO)

The questions in the consumption module were answered by the household respondents. As discussed in Browning and Madsen 2005, consumption is regarded as one of the best direct measures of material well-being.

Household respondents were asked about the amount spent on food consumed at home, food consumed outside the home and the amount spent on telephone calls and charges during the past 12 months. In addition, they were asked how much they had spent, on average, on all goods and services per month during the past 12 months. Two questions addressed whether the households were able to make ends meet and whether the situation had improved as compared to the previous year. As mentioned earlier, income-related questions in the

Page 29: Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE ... · Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE First Results for Austria Research Report 31 Isabella Buber,

SHARE for Austria 29

consumption module were used to construct gross total annual income variables at the individual as well as at the household level.

2.17 Assets (AS)

The questions in this module were answered by the financial respondents and by all persons who reported that finances were totally separate. They were asked to quantify their assets, indicate the assets’ composition and financial asset ownership. As discussed in Christelis et al. 2005 this set of questions provides insights into the composition (financial vs. real assets) of wealth before and after retirement. As mentioned earlier, income-related questions in the assets module were used to construct wealth-related variables and gross total annual income variables at the individual as well as at the household level.

The categories of financial assets comprised bank and other transaction accounts, government and corporate bonds, stocks, mutual funds, individual retirement accounts, contractual savings for housing, and life insurance policies. As indicated in Figure 17, bank accounts constituted the most prevalent financial asset in all age groups, followed by contractual saving for housing and life insurance. A clear negative age trend was visible for all assets, i.e. older individuals held less financial assets. Note that the share of bonds, stocks and mutual funds is relatively small in Austria and nobody in our dataset held an individual retirement account because this was unusual in the past.

Furthermore, the amount and interest from each financial asset were recorded. Additional questions were asked about real assets including primary and other residences, own business and vehicles, along with the respective amounts. Finally, any outstanding debts were recorded.

2.18 Activities (AC)

SHARE collects information on participation in, motivation for and satisfaction with social activities in the past month for all individuals. These activities cover voluntary or charity work; care for sick or disabled adults; helping family, friends or neighbours; educational or training courses; participation in sports, social or other kinds of clubs; participation in religious organisations; participation in political or community-related organisations. By not only asking for the participation in social activities but also for motivations and satisfaction we gain deeper insight into special aspects of the allocation of time among elderly individuals in different cultural spheres. “SHARE provides a unique opportunity to relate the allocation of time by elderly individuals to their demographic characteristics as well as to their health status” (Croda and Gonzalez-Chapela, 2005). Future waves of SHARE will permit a dynamic perspective of activities among the elderly population.

First analyses depict three levels of volunteering in Europe. First, the Mediterranean ‘low participation’ countries, secondly countries with a medium level of activities (Germany, France, Switzerland and Austria), and thirdly, ‘high participation’ countries (Sweden, Denmark and The Netherlands) (Hank and Erlinghagen 2005, Erlinghagen and Hank 2005).

Figure 18 offers an overview of the proportion of Austrian respondents who engaged in several activities in the month prior to the interview. In Austria, helping the family, friends or neighbours and religious engagement are rather frequent among the elderly, moreover, sports and social or other kinds of clubs are quite popular. Religious activities and care for sick or disabled adults are more important for women, whereas sports and social clubs, political organisations and helping others play a mayor role in the second half of men’s lives (and presumably also before).

2.19 Expectations (EX)

“Households’ beliefs about future events play a central role in forward-looking models of decision-making” (Guiso et al. 2005, p. 332). One module of the computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) programme concentrated on subjective expectation for the future and covered inheritances and inheriting. Furthermore, not-retired individuals had to evaluate their self-perceived perspectives of their future pension by estimating the chance that the government would reduce the pension they were entitled to as well as the chance that the government would raise the retirement age before they retired. On a scale from 0% to 100%, individuals had to estimate how likely various events might be.

In Austria, 72% of all men and 63% of all women estimated the chance of their leaving any inheritance—together with their wife/husband/partner—to be 50 to 50 or higher. SHARE reveals a rather high potential for inheritances and intergenerational transfers, as 55% of the male respondents and 47% of the female respondents expected to leave a rather high inheritance (50,000 euro or more) together with their husband/wife/partner (estimated chance: 50% or higher).

A first look at the expectations of employed or self-employed persons aged 50 and above reveals rather pessimistic expectations: Eight out of ten men and two thirds of women expected that there was a rather high chance that the government would reduce the pension they were entitled to before they retired. Moreover, two thirds among men and six out of ten women believed that the government would raise their retirement age.

2.20 Interviewer observations (IV)

This module included the main characteristics of the interviewer such as sex, age and educational degree. It also contained information on the circumstances of the interview, e.g., the presence of other persons during the interview and the respondent’s willingness to answer. Moreover the interviewer noted whether the respondent had asked for clarification during the interview and whether he/she had understood the questions. In addition, the interviewer provided information for all household respondents, the household’s location and the type of building.

2.21 Drop-off questionnaire (Q)

The computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI) programme of SHARE was supplemented by a self-completion paper-and-pencil questionnaire, the so-called drop-off questionnaire. It included questions that might be particularly sensitive for the respondent (e.g., on social and psychological well-being, health care, religiosity and political affiliation). The interviewer handed the questionnaire to each eligible individual in the household, some completed it immediately and returned it to the interviewer, others answered later and returned the questionnaire by mail. The preliminary drop-off response rate for all countries

Page 33: Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE ... · Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe SHARE First Results for Austria Research Report 31 Isabella Buber,

SHARE for Austria 33

was 81.3%. In Austria, 90.0% of all individuals who had completed the interview returned the drop-off questionnaire.

One focus in the drop-off questionnaire was on psychological well-being with questions on satisfaction with life and a list of statements that describe life or how a person feels. Individuals had to answer to what extent they agreed with statements such as “My age prevents me from doing the things I would like to do” or “I feel that life is full of opportunities”. More general questions on physical well-being captured an aspect of health that was not covered in the physical health module by asking questions on chronic or long-term illness. Individuals had to answer to what extent they agreed to statements such as “My sleep was restless”, “I felt that everything I did was an effort” or “I had a lot of energy”.

“As populations age, health systems must adapt and develop approaches that meet the needs of frail patients with multiple chronic conditions. Geriatric assessment, prevention, rehabilitation and integrated care are key components of this evolution” (Santos-Eggimann et al. 2005, p. 141). The need for indicators of quality of care delivered to the elderly in health care systems is recognized, and SHARE is the first data source that includes such indicators for European comparisons. Three groups of indicators for the quality of care are contained in the drop-off questionnaire: (1) indicators of geriatric assessment in primary care (e.g., information collected by physicians, advice for physical activity, anamnesis of falls, examination of balance, weight control, medical anamnesis of drugs), (2) screening and prevention (e.g., flu vaccination, eye examination, mammograms, endoscopic examinations, tests for occult blood), and (3) quality of care for joints pain (Santos-Eggimann et al. 2005).

Objective aspects of accommodation (indoor bath, indoor toilet, central heating, air condition, elevator, balcony) or pets as well as subjective aspects (not enough space, not enough light, insufficient heating or cooling) and questions on the area surrounding the accommodation (facilities such as pharmacy, medical care, grocery within a reasonable distance; public transportation; pollution or noise; vandalism or crime) provide a detailed picture of the living conditions of elderly persons.

Social well-being is another aspect of a person’s private domain. SHARE tries to capture it with questions on the balance within a partnership, on appreciation for providing help within the family and on the satisfaction with the rewards received for one’s efforts. Expectations of each other, family duties, conflicts within the family and division of household chores and responsibilities shed light on the daily living and family bonds of elderly persons.

As an example we depict the agreement to the statement “My age prevents me from doing the things I would like to do”. We found that agreement increases with increasing age. Whereas 30% of the Austrians in their fifties feel sometimes or often limited by their age, 75% among those aged 80 years and more perceive it as a burden that prevents them from doing the things they would like to do (Figure 20).

Living arrangements of elderly Austrians are quite good (Figure 21): 87% of the sample had sufficient facilities such as pharmacy, medical care, grocery and the like within reasonable distance, 78% had sufficient possibilities to use public transportation in the area immediately surrounding their accommodation. Three out of four felt they had enough light and nine out of ten had sufficient heating or cooling facilities in their accommodation. SHARE shows that elderly Austrians are fond of animals and have pets: Three out of ten currently had a cat in their household, 15% had a dog, some had a bird, a fish or other pets, so that a total of 51% had at least one pet in their household.

3 Linear counts by age and gender This section aims to give an overview of all variables coded in the Austrian SHARE-dataset and contains for all variables cross tabulations with the respective variable in the rows and age-groups in the columns. The SHARE main questionnaire consists of 20 modules, it is supplemented by a self-completion questionnaire19. We dedicate one chapter to each module.

Table 1: Modules of SHARE

Module Content Respondents CV Coverscreen All individuals DN Demographics All individuals PH Physical Health All individuals BR Behavioural Risks All individuals CF Cognitive Function All individuals MH Mental Health All individuals HC Health Care All individuals EP Employment and Pensions All individuals GS Grip Strength All individuals WS Walking Speed All individuals CH Children Family respondent SP Social Support Family respondent FT Financial Transfers Financial respondent20 HO Housing Household respondent HH Household Income Household respondent CO Consumption Household respondent AS Assets Financial respondent AC Activities All individuals EX Expectations All individuals IV Interviewer Observations All individuals Q Self-administered Questionnaire All individuals

Some modules concerning households rather than individuals are only answered by

the designated family, housing, or financial respondent. These respondents were defined at the beginning of the interview. The family respondent was mostly the first eligible person in a household, but for some households another person was chosen to be the family respondent who had to, e.g., answer questions on children and social support. The one most familiar with questions on housing was chosen to be the household respondent, the one most familiar with finances was defined to be the financial respondent. If the first respondent said that finances were kept totally separate, all eligible persons within a household had to answer the questions

19 Apart from the 21 modules of the main SHARE questionnaire, another seven modules were produced

that include weights, generated variables on education, health, assets, income, support and additional information for the household coverscreen.

20 The questions in the FT module and the AS module are asked to the financial respondents and to all persons who respond that the finances are totally separated.

on financial transfers and assets. Table 1 gives an overview of the modules included in SHARE and the selected respondents.

The Austrian SHARE-dataset includes information on an unweighted total of 1,986 individuals (820 men and 1,166 women). Due to missing year of birth only for 1,969 persons (816 men and 1,153 women) age can be calculated. 21 We use calibrated individual or household weights22 to have a sample representative for Austria by sex and age. Our weighted sample includes 1,910 individuals (808 men and 1,102 women) and therefore all cross tabulations in this publication are restricted to those weighted 1,910 persons. All tables are computed by age-groups for men and for women separately. If some tables sum up to smaller numbers, the reasons are missing values or system-missings. Moreover, certain questions are not posed to all respondents but only to special subgroups and remarks indicate which subgroups were interviewed.

Questions that allow for multiple responses show up as dummy variables. A value ‘1’ means that the respondent has selected the particular category and has given the particular category as answer. In case of a value ‘0’ the respondent either did not give the particular category as answer or answered with “Don’t know” or “Refusal” or “Missing”. Unfortunately, dummies do not account for missing values or “Don’t know” or “Refusal”. For cross tabulations on income and assets, but also for numeric variables like year and weeks we used classifications to have concise tables.23

We briefly describe methodological aspects for variables on income and assets: Respondents who did not know (DK) or refused (RF) the answer to an amount question, entered a loop and were asked if the amount was higher or lower than a certain value. This procedure was repeated a second and a third time and is called an unfolded sequence of bracket questions. Part of the “Refusals” or “Don’t knows” were substituted by generated variables. Gross total annual income variables for 2003 at the individual as well as at the household level containing individual and household income information for each respondent as well as wealth-related variables were computed and are available online as generated variables.

21 The age of a person is computed by using the month of birth, the year of birth and the interview date.

Month of birth and year of birth are given in the coverscreen module and in the demographics module and should be identical. Unfortunately, they differ for 23 records (6 men and 17 women) in the Austrian dataset. As information in the DN module is more reliable, the age of a person is computed by the information given in the DN module. According to Stephanie Struck at MEA, the DN-module should be more reliable than the CV-module, because the CV-module was filled out by one member of the household for all other members, while the DN-module was filled out by the respective household member, or a proxy.

22 For the modules HO, HH and CO we used calibrated household weights, for all other modules calibrated individual weights were applied.

23 For tables with less than 5 respondents we use no classifications and include all levels of the corresponding variable.

3.11 Children (CH) With the exception of ch001, the questions in the children module are asked to the family respondents with at least one child.20 Accurate information on the child (marital status, partner, transition to adulthood, employment status and education) are asked for up to four children.21 If a respondent has more children, the data contain only basic information (natural child, gender, year of birth, place of residence). Furthermore, no information on dead children is collected. Table CH001: Number of children “How many children do you have that are still alive?

20 These are those persons with dumfamr = 1 and ch001 > 1. 21 The selection of the four children was proceeded as follows: Children were sorted (in ascending order) by minor, proximity (CH007), and birth year, where the minor is defined as 0 for all children aged 18 and over and 1 for all others. The first four children were picked. The variables chselch1 till chselch4 contain the number of the children who were selected by the program. The numbers refer to the order in which the respondent listed the children (see readme.txt at the SHARE homepage).
