Our data come from four microcensus surveys for the years 1978, 1983, 1991, and 1998. We use self-perceived health ratings to calculate healthy-life expectancy for the elderly population aged 60–89. Because our data are based on four cross-sectional surveys, we devote the first part of the paper to the consequences of possible sampling and non-sampling errors in our analysis of time trends. We come to the conclusion that, although the absolute number of years lived in good health may be overestimated, the time trend in healthy-life expectancy over the 20 years most probably is unbiased. The second part of the paper describes trends in healthy-life expectancy for the Austrian population. Our results suggest that both healthy-life expectancy and the ratio of healthy years to life expectancy increased between 1978 and 1998. Thus, in Austria ill health seems to be more and more compressed into the later years of life. Contrary to Fries’s hypothesis, however, life expectancy does not seem to be approaching a maximum average life span in Austria, as mortality rates at older ages have been continuously decreasing over the last 20 years. 000164807 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-354$$a354 - Disease Prevention and Healthy Aging (POF4-354)$$cPOF4-354$$fPOF IV$$x0 000164807 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-345$$a345 - Population Studies and Genetics (POF3-345)$$cPOF3-345$$fPOF III$$x1 000164807 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef, Journals: pub.dzne.de 000164807 7001_ $$0P:(DE-HGF)0$$aKytir, Josef$$b1 000164807 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)4766-1$$a10.1016/S0277-9536(00)00141-6$$gVol. 52, no. 3, p. 385 - 391$$n3$$pPages 385 - 391$$tSocial science & medicine$$v52$$x0037-7856$$y2001 000164807 8564_ $$uhttps://pub.dzne.de/record/164807/files/DZNE-2022-01258_Restricted.pdf 000164807 8564_ $$uhttps://pub.dzne.de/record/164807/files/DZNE-2022-01258_Restricted.pdf?subformat=pdfa$$xpdfa 000164807 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588)1065079516$$6P:(DE-2719)2811246$$aDeutsches Zentrum für Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen$$b0$$kDZNE 000164807 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF4-354$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF4-350$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF4-300$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF4$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bGesundheit$$lNeurodegenerative Diseases$$vDisease Prevention and Healthy Aging$$x0 000164807 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-345$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-340$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-300$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bGesundheit$$lErkrankungen des Nervensystems$$vPopulation Studies and Genetics$$x1 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bSOC SCI MED : 2014 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0130$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSocial Sciences Citation Index 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1020$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Social and Behavioral Sciences 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1110$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Clinical Medicine 000164807 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9900$$2StatID$$aIF < 5 000164807 980__ $$ajournal 000164807 980__ $$aI:(DE-2719)1012002 000164807 980__ $$aI:(DE-2719)1040260 000164807 9801_ $$aEXTERN4VITA
