Abstract: |
The Poverty and Social Exclusion in the UK Project is a 3.5 year collaboration which aims to advance the ‘state of the art’ of the theory and practice of poverty and social exclusion measurement. This paper provides a focused review of various measures pertaining to older people used in the 1999 Poverty and Social Exclusion (PSE) survey and offers suggestions for improvement for the PSE 2011 main survey. This review does not cover the full range of domains/sub-domains found in the Bristol-Social Exclusion Matrix (B-SEM), but focuses on areas which have the greatest scope for improvement in terms of measuring the poverty and social exclusion of older people. Existing and planned national surveys were reviewed as potential sources for specific questions and items in the following key areas: deprivation; social capital; limitations in activities of daily living; receipt of informal care; receipt of health and social services; and provision of unpaid care. These areas are reviewed, and recommendations made with regard to potential questions and areas for improvement. |
