Do early life and contemporaneous macroconditions explain health at older ages? An application to functional limitations of Dutch older individuals
F Portrait, R Alessie, D Deeg - Journal of Population Economics, 2010 - Springer
This paper presents an approach that assesses the role of early life and contemporaneous
macroconditions in explaining health at older ages. In particular, we investigate the role of
exposure to diseases and economic conditions during infancy and childhood, as well as the
effect of current health care facilities. Specific attention is paid to the impact of unobserved
heterogeneity, selective attrition, and omitted relevant macrovariables. We apply our
approach to self-reports on functional limitations of Dutch older individuals. The prevalence …

The paper presents an approach which thoroughly assesses the role of early life and
contemporaneous macro-conditions in explaining health at older ages. In particular, we
investigate the role of exposure to infectious diseases and economic conditions during
infancy and childhood, as well as the effect of current health care facilities. Specific attention
is paid to the impact of unobserved heterogeneity, selective attrition and omitted relevant
macro-variables. We apply our approach to self-reports on functional limitations of Dutch …
