DFLE at age 50

Code for the paper "Educational Disparities in Disability-Free Life Expectancy across Europe: A focus on the East-West Gaps from a Gender Perspective" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352827323001350

In this paper, we exploit a novel approach that combines the Sullivan method and multivariate life tables to calculate DFLE using SHARE data. The code provided is for replicating the main analysis. If you are interested in replicating the senstivitiy analysis, feel free to reach out.

This analysis uses data or information from the Harmonized Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe dataset and Codebook, Version F as of February 2023 developed by the Gateway to Global Aging Data. You can access the data here: https://g2aging.org/downloads.
