  • Segmented generation mortality

    Open AccessMortimer SpiegelmanARTICLEDemography1969References: 4

    For a clear understanding of the inherent changes in mortality with advance in age, it is necessary to observe the experience of generations rather than the cross-section of period experience. In fact, the latter may produce a misleading picture as can be illustrated in the case of tuberculosis. Period experience pointed to a rise in tuberculosis death rates with advance in age, whereas generation experience indicates a decline with aging, The pr…

  • The demographic viewpoint in the vital and health statistics monographs of The American Public Health Association

    Open AccessMortimer SpiegelmanARTICLEDemography1966

    The plan calls for monographs on 16 specific topics and a review volume. The specific topics include a monograph on fertility, another on marriage and divorce, and one on social and economic factors in mortality, all of which are of obvious demographic interest. The core of the development of the monographs dealing with the disease topics, and accidents, homicide, and suicide, is a tabulation program involving specific and age-adjusted death rate…

  • Mortality Trends and Prospects and Their Implications

    Open AccessMortimer SpiegelmanARTICLEThe Annals of the American…1958

    One of the many aspects of life shared by the United States and Canada is a record of low mortality and of high longevity. In both countries the trend has been toward a general reduction in mortality rates, but the rela tive reductions have been greater for females than for males. During this cen tury the nonwhite population of the United States has also benefited from mor tality reductions. Factors which cause variability in rates of mortality i…

    FOR some time now, we have taken pride in the downward course of the death rate and the corresponding rise in the longevity of our people. The gains during the last half century have been recited in many studies which emphasize the leadership of the United States among the countries of the world in medical and public health organization

  • The reproductivity of Jews in Canada, 1940-1942

    Mortimer SpiegelmanARTICLEPopulation Studies1950References: 5

    Age for age, the birth rates for Jewish women of Canada are far below those for women of French origin, particularly toward the end of reproductive life. Women of British origin also have the higher birth rates, but their margin over Jews is by no means as great as for the French. The changes in age-specific birth rates for these three ethnic groups for 1930-2 to 1940-2 indicate that Jewish families restrict their size to a greater extent than th…

  • The Longevity of Jews in Canada, 1940-1942

    Mortimer SpiegelmanARTICLEPopulation Studies1948Cited by: 5References: 1

    A life table for the Jewish population of Canada, based upon their mortality experience during 1940–2, yielded an average length of life (expectation of life at birth) of 67–53 years for males and 69·89 years for females. These figures are greater than those for the general population of Canada by 4·58 years for males and 3·60 years for females. These margins decrease with advance in age; the expectations of life for Jews and for the total Canadi…
