On behalf of the German Federal Institute for Population Research (BiB) at Wiesbaden, the Umfragezentrum Bonn (uzbonn) conducted a survey during the first quarter of 2013 concerning the transitions to retirement and the potential of the 55- to 70-years-old on the labour market as well as in the civil society and the family. For this, a representative sample of the German residential population in this age group was drawn according to the Gabler-Häder-Design and was interviewed via telephone using the CATI technique. The interviews were based on a standardized questionnaire that was designed in cooperation with partners from various disciplines (i.e. psychology, gerontology, economics). On average, an interview lasted for about 40 minutes. A total of 5,002 persons were interviewed.
