Use of multiple surveys to estimate mortality among never, current, and former smokers: Changes over a 20-year interval
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to demonstrate how data from publicly available large-scale cross-sectional health surveys can be combined to analyze changes in mortality risks among never, current, and former smokers. METHODS: Data from the 1966/68 and 1986 National Mortality Followback Surveys and the 1970 and 1987 National Health Interview Surveys were used to estimate the distribution of never, current, and former smokers among the US populatio…

The confounding of occupation and smoking and its consequences
Analysis and Reanalysis of Shared Scientific Data
Enormous strides in data handling and in telecommunications technology have made possible multiple access and sharing of data files. Sharing of research data often is resisted, however, because of (1) potential loss of monetary, political, or psychological reward; (2) potential conflict and disagreement; and (3) potential exposure of extreme bias or fraud. Found acceptable have been (1) the distribution of very large data files for further study,…

Democracy in an information society: A rejoinder
Democracy in an information society
The potential impact of managing large organizations, enterprises, and government departments through the universal adoption of computer‐based techniques is analyzed. Current soft and hardware architecture tends to support a centralizing power strategy. Also, the economics of that architecture tend to support centralized rather than distributed and decentralized organizations. This trend may be further supported by dominant Reinforcement Politics…

A critical reassessment of the evidence bearing on smoking as the cause of lung cancer
Since population statistics have contributed significantly to the belief that cigarette smoking is a cause of lung cancer, perhaps one should start by asking how population surveys and statistical studies can contribute to the understanding of the possibly complex causes of lung cancer or, in fact, any cancer? This question is basic since it includes cigarette smoking as one of the possible antecedents but does not ignore the rich evidence implic…
