'In diesem Beitrag werden Möglichkeiten zur Analyse sozialer Unterschiede in der Lebenserwartung auf Basis des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels (SOEP) dargestellt. Einleitend wird ein Überblick über verschiedene Datenquellen zur Analyse sozial differenzieller Sterblichkeit gegeben und der Forschungsstand für Deutschland zusammengefasst. Anschließend wird auf methodische Besonderheiten und Probleme des SOEP hingewiesen, die sich insbesondere an einer Überschätzung der mittleren Lebenserwartung festmachen lassen. Abschließend wird ein Verfahren vorgestellt, anhand dessen sich diese Überschätzung unter Verwendung der amtlichen Sterbetafeln ausgleichen lässt.' (Autorenreferat)... view less

'This paper describes the potential for analysing socio-economic inequalities in life expectancy with the German Socio- Economic Panel Study (SOEP). It includes a short review of available data sources and recent evidence on inequalities in life expectancy for Germany. Subsequently the characteristics and issues with analysing mortality with the SOEP are discussed. The main problem for providing undistorted estimates of life expectancy across social strata with SOEP data is an overestimation of life expectancy in the study population. We will present a method that allows overcoming this problem with the utilization of official life tables for Germany.' (author's abstract)|... view less
