The impact of heterogeneity in individual frailty on the dynamics of mortality
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Calculations based on Swedish mortality data suggest that standard methods overestimate current life expectancy and potential gains in life expectancy from health and safety interventions, while underestimating rates of individual aging, past progress in reducing mortality, and mortality differentials between pairs of populations.
