It illuminates patterns of events within an individual’s life and records mobility and immobility between older and younger generations. It can track the different pathways of men and women and people of diverse socio-economic background through the life course. It can join up data on aspects of a person’s life, health, education, family, and employment and show how these domains affect one another. It is ideal for bridging the different silos of policies that affect people’s lives. date: 2016-11 date_type: published publisher: IZA official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.15185/izawol.308 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green article_type_text: Article verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1189786 doi: 10.15185/izawol.308 language_elements: English lyricists_name: Joshi, Heather lyricists_id: HEJOS44 actors_name: Sharp, Catherine actors_id: CLSHA04 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: IZA World of Labor article_number: 308 place_of_pub: Bonn pages: 12 event_location: Germany issn: 2054-9571 citation: Joshi, HE; (2016) Why do we need longitudinal survey data?
