Weights for Scoring the Quality of Well-being Instrument Among Rheumatoid Arthritics: A Comparison to General Population Weights
The importance of measuring health outcomes such as functional status and quality of life has increased with the greater emphasis on efficiency and on judgements of clinical effectiveness of therapies for patients with chronic disease. One measure of health status, the quality of well-being (QWB), has received significant attention as a health policy model because it quantifies health on a scale ranging from "zero" (death) to "one" (optimal healt…
The recent decline in mortality of the extreme aged: An analysis of statistical data
Official U.S. statistics reveal a 26 per cent decline in the mortality rate for the extreme aged population (persons 85 years and over) between 1966 and 1977. This reduction was greater than that exhibited by other adult age groups and substantially larger than earlier declines for the extreme aged. This study examines the possible effect of statistical artifacts, such as errors in population estimation, on the changed mortality trend. Data from …

Se encontró en la encuesta anterior que la efectividad de la contraconcepcíon fue comparativamente baja entre el casamiento y el nacimiento del primer hijo, y no mejoró grandemente entr…

Contraceptive effectiveness as a function of desired family size
The inclusive notion of method acceptability has been used as an explanation of variation in willingness to use contraception, the regularity with which contraception is used, and the effectiveness of contraception in preventing pregnancy. With the additional assumption that variation in method acceptability is related to differential motivations to limit numbers and control spacing, two hypotheses are advanced. (1) As the number of children indi…
Improvement of contraception during the course of marriage
Contraceptive effectiveness is conventionally measured by a pregnancy rate, which reveals little about the way in which pregnancy risks vary among couples. In this paper a technique is presented for estimating curves of pregnancy risk. The technique is applied to data from the Family Growth in Metropolitan America study for purposes of estimating how much these couples would have to Improve their initial contraception In order to realize, by cont…

Some estimates of the reliability of survey data on family planning
An opportunity to estimate the reliability of survey data on family planning is afforded by a longitudinal study of fertility in metropolitan areas of the United States. A probability sample of mothers was interviewed six months after the birth of their second child. Data were collected on a number of pregnancies, use of contraception, methods used, and the planning status of each pregnancy, in addition to a wide variety of social and psychologic…
The Concept of Social Mobility: An Empirical Inquiry
In conclusion we should like to refer to a point recently made by Thomas.4 She emphasizes that the one generalization which can be established about the selectivity of migration concerns the relationship between age and migration and the preponderance of youth among migrants. She further points out that temporal factors are often important in determining the nature and strength of age selection. An important limitation of most studies of the sele…
Fertility Through Twenty Years of Marriage: A Study in Predictive Possibilities
This paper has considered some effects of the auxiliary status of ethnic membership upon the practice of medicine. Notwithstanding its methodological shortcomings and the fact that the interpretation involves certain assumptions which deserve separate examination, the data strongly suggest that the ethnic identification of physicians significantly influences their pattern of medical practice. Both the spatial distribution and the functional diffe…
