    Inhalt: Wild animals were once thought not to age, as their deaths were viewed as the consequences of constant exposure to the perennial risks of nature. Studies of non-human aging were largely confined to biological investigations, focusing upon short-lived species such as fruit flies, mice and nematodes. Over recent decades, this has changed, and studies of non-human aging have begun to investigate aging taking place in social contexts. The present paper reviews such work on social aging in non-human primate societies. Four themes were evident in seeking potential parallels between human and non-human social aging. These were social disengagement, social bonds or social capital, status rank and dominance, and kinship ties. No studies were found that had explored parent caregiving. The lack of clear evidence that agedness is perceived and recognised within non-human primate groups suggests that most age-associated behavioral changes are at best demi-regularities that map quite imprecisely upon social aging in human societies. However as non-human primate societies are becoming gradually confined to areas and environments established through human agency and human institutions, it is possible to speculate that non-human primate old age will become more common if less natural and as a result, perhaps more akin to social aging in human societies.

    Inhalt: Workers in their 50s today, compared to previous generations, are more likely to switch jobs voluntarily: The question is whether such job changes lengthen or shorten a worker’s career. The results suggest that job changes lengthen careers: those who switch jobs are much more likely to still be in the labor force at age 65 than those who stay put. This effect is somewhat larger for better-educated workers than for less-educated workers.

    The Effect of Job Mobility on Retirement Timing by Education (2017)

    Umfang: Online-Ressource (26 S. = 246 KB) , Illustrationen, Diagramme , pdf
    Serie: CRR Working Papers 2017-1
    Inhalt: Job-changing among late-career workers increased steadily from the 1980s through the mid-2000s before declining somewhat in recent years. This study asks how the rise in job-changing – which seems largely voluntary – affects retirement timing and whether this effect varies by a key measure of socioeconomic status: educational attainment. Workers presumably change jobs voluntarily to improve their well-being through gains in the economic or non-economic rewards of work or better working conditions. As a result, workers switching jobs late in their careers might retire later than they otherwise would have. Retiring later would be especially beneficial to less educated workers, who are generally less prepared financially to retire than better educated workers. Changing jobs, however, sheds the protection that tenure provides against involuntary job loss, which often leads to earlier retirements for older workers. This study seeks to understand which effect dominates, while dealing with the fact that job changing could be endogenous to retirement – that workers willing to bear the cost of a job search could intend to remain in the workforce longer. The analysis does so by controlling for each individual’s planned retirement age. The results show that the benefits of job changing are widely distributed and are associated with later retirements for men and women and for better and less educated workers.

    The perceived fair duration of unemployment benefits for older workers. The role of lifetime achievements in the labour market (2022)

    Inhalt: The welfare state regulates social policies and reallocates scarce resources. For the social legitimacy of the welfare state, it is important that the public supports the principles underlying this reallocation. This article examines the impact of different activities during the life course on public deservingness perceptions of older unemployed people. In a factorial survey experiment conducted among a random sample of individuals drawn from German administrative employment records, we examine the maximum duration of benefit receipt which is perceived as fair for older unemployed persons with different biographies. The results indicate strong public support for a nexus between previous contributions and benefit entitlements. Besides financial contributions to unemployment insurance, parenting and further training are considered to be ‘lifetime achievements’ which justify longer unemployment benefit receipt. We interpret these findings as an expression of a generalised form of reciprocity which guides perceptions of deservingness regarding older unemployed persons.

    Betriebliche Faktoren der Beschäftigung Älterer : theoretische Überlegungen und empirische Analysen zu Bestand, Eintritten und Austritten (2014)

    Inhalt: In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Beschäftigung älterer Mitarbeiter aus betrieblicher Perspektive untersucht. Mittels interdisziplinärer Forschungsansätze wird ein theoretisches Grundgerüst zur Erklärung des Bestandes sowie der Ein- und Austritte älterer Mitarbeiter entwickelt. Anhand des Linked-Employer-Employee-Datensatzes (LIAB) des Instituts für Arbeitsmarkt- und Berufsforschung (IAB) wird gezeigt, dass die zunehmende Beschäftigung Älterer maßgeblich durch einen Rückgang der Freisetzungsintensität bereits beschäftigter älterer Mitarbeiter entsteht. Die Ergebnisse legen nahe, dass der organisationsdemografische Hydra-Effekt allgemeines Schema der Personalpolitik ist, bei dem nach der Freisetzung einer Kohorte Älterer bereits die darauffolgende wartet. Die Betriebe fördern langfristige Beschäftigung, versuchen aber gleichzeitig alternde Belegschaften zu vermeiden. Hierzu generieren sie älterer Mitarbeiter maßgeblich aus den eigenen Reihen und ersetzen ältere Mitarbeiter durch jüngere. Eine Differenzierung zwischen älteren und langjährigen Mitarbeiter ist die Folge. Die betriebliche Beschäftigungsstrategie ist durch einen näherungsweisen intergenerationalen Austausch zur Replikation der Altersstruktur geprägt. Diese Erklärungen treffen maßgeblich für den Bestand und die Einstellungsintensität zu. Freisetzungen sind stark durch Senioritätsentlohnung und nachgelagerte Kompensation gekennzeichnet. Im Zuge des demografischen Wandels verschiebt sich sie Altersstruktur des Erwerbspersonenpotentials weiter zugunsten älterer Personen. Damit wird es für Betriebe immer schwieriger die bisher gängige Beschäftigungsstrategie aufrechtzuerhalten. Dies erfordert eine Anpassung der Einstellungs- und Freisetzungsmuster an die veränderten betrieblichen Umwelten.

    Social isolation and aging in Zambia : examining the possible predictors (2012)

    Inhalt: This research paper examined social isolation and aging in Zambia by examining possible predictors. The paper produces evidence on risk factors likely to engender social isolation among the elderly population of Zambia. Snowball sampling was undertaken to select 690 adults aged 60 and over in communities as well as those living in homes for the aged. A structured questionnaire was used to solicit information from respondents. Results show that old people in Zambia experience forms of social isolation which exhibit themselves (but not limited to) through such factors as loss of appetite, stress, moody, hopeless, useless, unhappy, and lonely. On balance, however, the direction of association and the number of statistically significant findings suggest that associations between variables examined and risk factors associated with social isolation amongst older people in this analysis could explain the overall situation occuring currently in Zambia and probably other developing countries. In view of this, this study recommends that further work is needed to identify and explain details of factors of social isolation using techniques such as focus group discussions as well as in-depth interviews with key informants. Such approaches may even help to explain why, for example, sex seems not to be significant in determining indicators of social isolation. (Vorlage)

    The effects of exercise on the physical fitness of high and moderate-low functioning older adult women (2016)

    Inhalt: Introduction. Understanding how exercise affects individuals with varying levels of functional ability will provide further insight into the role of exercise during the aging process. It will also aid in the development of exercise programs that are appropriate for a wider spectrum of older adults. Specifically it was the primary aim of this study to determine and compare the effects of 10 weeks of community-based exercise on the cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, flexibility, and balance fitness components of older adult women with high and moderate-low levels of physical function. Methods. Participants were placed in either the high functioning (n=13) or moderate/low functioning (n=17) groups based on their level of physical functioning. Fitness components were measured by the Senior Fitness Test and physical function was determined by the Composite Physical Function scale. Results. The results of the 3 × 2 mixed ANOVA statistical analysis showed no significant interaction effect for time ⁎ group for any of the six subtests (chair stand, arm curls, 2-minute step, chair sit-and-reach, back scratch, and 6-foot up-and-go) of the SFT. However, the main effect of time was significant for all fitness components and the main effect of group was significant for all fitness components except lower extremity flexibility. Discussion. Community-based exercise programs offering a variety of exercise types to people with varying levels of functional ability can be useful in maintaining or improving fitness and independence. These programs may also be capable of improving the self-efficacy of lower functioning older adults toward performing daily tasks.

    And so I took up residence : the experiences of family members of people with dementia during admission to an acute hospital unit (2019)

    Inhalt: It is estimated that a quarter of acute hospital beds are in use by older people with dementia at any one time. Little empirical research has been carried out that has specifically examined the day-to-day input of family members into the care of people with dementia during an acute hospital admission. In this article, we present the results of analysis of interviews with 26 family members of people with dementia about their experiences of supporting an admission of a person with dementia to an acute hospital unit in New Zealand. For all family members, the desire to support the person with dementia during their admission was at the forefront and was their primary focus. The theme, ‘And so I took up residence’, exemplifies fully the experiences of all of the family member participants. This study provides evidence that family members are a resource that may be unrecognised, untapped and unsupported in the event of hospitalisation of people with dementia.(Vorlage)
