The Federal Statistical Office (FSO) is responsible for developing statistics and indicators on the information society within the framework of the Federal Coordination Group on the Information Society (ISCC). As there is hardly any representative data on the infrastructure and use of information and communication technologies (ICT) throughout Switzerland in the education sector - especially in primary schools - any gaps in data and information should be closed when developing indicators. The Institute for Interdisciplinary Economic and Social Research (IWS) of the University of Applied Sciences Solothurn Northwestern Switzerland has been commissioned to assess this ICT infrastructure and develop corresponding indicators. The study aims at the following aspects: - Complete overview of previous surveys on the dissemination of information and communication technologies at primary schools in Switzerland - Identification of data and information gaps on ICT infrastructure in primary schools in Switzerland - Identification of key indicators of the ICT infrastructure - If necessary to close existing data and information gaps, a representative nationwide survey on computer density, type, age and location of computers and financial investments, among other things. - A meta-analysis based on the data and information researched and collected - Selection and development of indicators for ICT infrastructure in primary schools in Switzerland

The research focuses on factors (internal and environmental) and processes that promote or support the aging person's independence, his/her physical and mental integrity, and his/her participation in society. It also analyzes the factors that hinder or undermine these aspects. This objective is pursued by means of a cross-sectional survey of a representative sample of the population aged 63 and over of two typical regions (Canton of Geneva and Central Valais) in 1979. The choice of the two survey regions was explains by the fact that they typologically constitute the two extremes of the range representing the diversity of the situations of the elderly in Switzerland. This cross-sectional survey is repeated in 1994 and completed by a longitudinal survey (1994-1999) on the cohort of 80-84 year-olds living at home at the time of the cross-sectional survey of 1994. This design makes a comparison possible of the evolution and changes of the aged condition over 15 years. The research is part of the theoretical perspective of the life course. A "horizontal" (class) social stratification articulates a "vertical" stratification, a social organization of life time, defining stages and transitions. The hypothesis is that the position occupied in the life course is a better indicator than age both in terms of defining situations and standard problems as in relation to the practices of aging people. The idea is to construct and validate a life course position indicator (LPI) combining the individual position in three dimensions: the health journey, the family trajectory, the professional trajectory. Through the results of the research, we want to contribute to a reflection on the ethical foundations of research in gerontology and a policy of old age, the definition of present and future needs of aging people, and to highlight possible linkages between the support provided by family or self-help networks, and various forms of institutional support.
