Workplace interventions to reduce HIV and TB stigma among health care workers – Where do we go from here
Fear of stigma and discrimination among health care workers (HCWs) in South African hospitals is thought to be a major factor in the high rates of HIV and tuberculosis infection experienced in the health care workforce. The aim of the current study is to inform the development of a stigma reduction intervention in the context of a large multicomponent trial. We analysed relevant results of four feasibility studies conducted in the lead up to the …
Considerations for preparing a randomized population health intervention trial
BACKGROUND: Community-based cluster-randomized controlled trials (RCTs) are increasingly being conducted to address pressing global health concerns. Preparations for clinical trials are well-described, as are the steps for multi-component health service trials. However, guidance is lacking for addressing the ethical and logistic challenges in (cluster) RCTs of population health interventions in low- and middle-income countries. OBJECTIVE: We aime…

International demographic trends and perspectives on aging
On the Demography of Aging
This paper is concerned with the contributions of demography to gerontology or the demography of aging. The major interests of gerontological demographers and outstanding issues and problems are discussed in terms of the process of aging. Problems of definition of old age and aging are noted in terms of: 1) the lack of a universally acceptable definition of normal biological aging and 2) the variance of cultural definitions of old age. The demogr…

Estimates of Coverage of the Population by Sex, Race, and Age in the 1970 Census
Several estimates of total net underenumeration and of net census errors by sex, race (white, Negro-and-other-races, Negro), and age (five-year groups) in the 1960 and 1970 Censuses, for the total population of the United States, derived by the methods of demographic analysis, are presented. The different data, procedures, and assumptions employed in developing the various estimates are described briefly, and the findings are then discussed in te…
The Methods and Materials of Demography
Presents an exposition of the methods used by technicians and research workers in dealing with demographic data. This book is concerned with the ways data on population are gathered, classified, and treated to produce tabulations and various summarizing measures that reveal the significant aspects of the composition and dynamics of populations
The Methods and Materials of Demography
Development and accuracy of projections of population and households in the united states
The history of the official U. S. projections of population and house-holds in recent decades is briefly reviewed, with particular attention to methodology and the relation of the methodology to the accuracy of the projections. The introduction of the cohort-component procedure in the 1930’s opened the way for separate analysis of the trend of the components of births, deaths, and net immigration in connection with making population projections. …
Some aspects of the use of birth expectations data from sample surveys for population projections
The value of national sample survey data relating to birth expectations for projecting births is reassessed in the light of data limitations pointed out by Ryder and Westoff among others and of the methods of projection used by the United States Bureau of the Census. The annual level of fertility under the cohort-fertility projection method depends on the assumptions regarding completed fertility, about which the available survey data are fairly …

Accuracy of Postcensal Estimates of Population for States and Cities
9) Several boundary agreements were found by all three approaches. All of them isolated certain heavy industry areas, a few residential neighborhoods, and some large outlying sectors. (10) The social and demographic techniques also singled out small, highly homogeneous, and distinctive areas of the city which were concealed by the ecological approach. For example, Figure 4 shows a segment of the city which is completely enclosed by rivers, railro…
Natality, Mortality, and Growth Prospects of the Negro Population of the United States
The relatively less satisfactory status of the Negro in the United States, today and in the past, with respect to health and longevity is well known, and there is considerable convincing documentation of it. Not so much is generally known about the manner in which the natality of Negroes differs from that of the general population, and the pertinent data are subject to less confident interpretation. The present paper seeks to summarize the more s…

The Changing Sex Ratio in the United States
The number of males per 100 females has been declining in the United States since 1910. By 1945 the ratio was slightly below 100 according to current estimates of population, but, because of underreporting of young males in the 1940 census, it was probably actually somewhat higher than the estimates indicate. The factors which depress the sex ratio may be expected to continue to operate in the near future, but the decline will be very gradual. Th…
