We analyze data from 18 different one-time and recurring surveys, totaling more than 60 individual survey iterations conducted during 1971--2020 with a total sample size of more than 130,000. We examine how Social Security expectations vary over time and by demographic group. Although we find differences in workers' expectations over time and among subgroups, surprisingly high percentages of young workers consistently expect that they will not receive future Social Security benefits. Many other workers expect to receive benefits but their expectations about benefit amounts are more pessimistic than actuarial projections. We investigate possible explanations for these findings. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
