    Open AccessJason M Fletcher, Megan Topping et al.ARTICLESocial Science History2025Referencias: 51

    This article uses online genealogy data from the United States over the nineteenth century to estimate period and cohort-based sex differences in longevity. Following previous work, we find a longevity reversal in the mid-nineteenth century that expanded rapidly for at least a half-century. For measures of conditional survival past childbearing age, females enjoyed a longevity advantage for the whole century. Unlike most mortality databases of th…

  • Out of sync, out of society

    Open AccessWon-Tak Joo, Jason M Fletcher et al.ARTICLENetwork Science2020Referencias: 51

    Who is more likely to be isolated from society in terms of political beliefs? To answer this question, we measure whether individuals’ beliefs are “out of sync”—the extent to which their views differ with their contemporaries—and examine how the level of synchronization is associated with the size of important-matter and political-matter discussion networks. The results show that people with weaker belief synchronization are more likely to have s…
