This study estimates changes in life expectancy with and without mobility limitation to test whether older persons in India experienced compression or expansion of morbidity from the period 1995–1996 to 2004. Age-specific death rates and the prevalence of mobility limitation were obtained from the Sample Registration System and two rounds (1995–1996/2004) of the National Sample Survey. Sullivan’s method was employed to compute life expectancy wit…
Gender difference in trends in healthy life expectancy in 2005-2012 for adults aged 50 years and older in South Africa
Data characterizing older people’s life expectancy by good or poor health is important for policy and fiscal planning. This study aims to examine trends and investigate gender differences in healthy life expectancy (HLE) for older people in South Africa for the period 2005–2012. Using data from three repeated cross-sectional surveys conducted in 2005, 2008, and 2012, we applied a self-rated health measure to estimating HLE. The Sullivan method wa…
Religiosity and health
The objective of this paper is to understand global connections between indicators of religiosity and health and how these differ cross-nationally. Data are from World Values Surveys (93 countries, N=121,770). Health is based on a self-assessed question about overall health. First, country-specific regressions are examined to determine the association separately in each country. Next, country-level variables and cross-level interactions are added…
Change in cognitively healthy and cognitively impaired life expectancy in the United States
This study provides evidence suggesting that there has been a compression of cognitive morbidity
Cost Trends in Long Term Care in Japan and Sweden over the Period 2000 to 2010
Diagnosis and control of hypertension in the elderly populations of Japan and the United States
The Japanese have the highest life expectancy in the world while the United States (U.S.) has relatively low life expectancy. Furthermore, the Americans have relatively poorer health compared to the Japanese. Examination of the treatment of specific conditions such as hypertension in these two countries may provide insights into how the health care system con-tributes to the relative health in these two countries. In this study, we focus on the t…
Changes in total and disability-free life ex-pectancy among older adults in China
The purpose of this research is to determine whether disability-free life expectancy (DFLE) in China has been increasing more rapidly than total life expectancy (TLE). Such a scenario would be consistent with a compression of morbidity, a situation that is especially desirable in a country experiencing rapid population aging and gains in old-age longevity. Us-ing the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Study, an exponential survival regression…
Application of Health Expectancy Research on Working Male Population in Bangladesh
Lower quality of life and more work-loss days for the workforce are barriers for economic development in Bangladesh. Using nationally representative data—the Bangladesh Demographic and Health Surveys for the 2004–2007 period, we examined the prevalence of diseases (asthma, diabetes, heart problems, high blood pressure, jaundice/hepatitis, malaria/fever, tuberculosis, and other) that prevented ever-married male workers from doing their regular act…
Are There Education Differentials in Disability and Mortality Transitions and Active Life Expectancy Among Japanese Older Adults? Findings From a 10-Year Prospective Cohort Study
The robust education-health relationship found in Western societies does not seem applicable in Japan. We discuss the casual mechanisms addressed in the literature in relation to Japan's relatively egalitarian society and specific characteristics
Expected Lifetime with and without Cataract among Older Adults in China
Further Evidence on Recent Trends in the Prevalence and Incidence of Disability among Older Americans from Two Sources
The Longitudinal Study on Aging (LSOA) and the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) are used to examine change in the prevalence of disability from 1982 through 1993 for persons 70 years of age and over. Changes in the likelihood of becoming disabled and the likelihood of recovering from disability also are investigated with the LSOA. There is some evidence for improving disability status among the old. The prevalence of disability is somewhat…
