SECTION 5.

The mortality rates for a specific period may be sum-marized by the life table method to obtain measures of com-parative longevity. There are two types of life tables—thegeneration or cohort life table and the current life table. Thegeneration life table provides a “longitudinal” perspectivein that it follows the mortality experience of a particularcohort, all persons born in the year 1900 for example, fromthe moment of birth through consecutive ages in successivecalendar years. Based on age-specific death rates observedduring consecutive calendar years, the generation life tablereflects the mortality experience of a cohort from birth untilno lives remain in the group.

The better known current life table may, by contrast,be characterized as “cross-s ectional.” Unlike the generationlife table, the current life table does not represent the mor-tality experience of an actual cohort. Rather, the currentlife table considers a hypothetical cohort and assumes thatit is subject to the age-specific mortality rates observedfor an actual population during a particular period. Thus,for example, a current life table for 1970 assumes a hypo-thetical cohort subject throughout its lifetime to the age-specific mortality rates prevailing for the actual populationin 1970. The current life table may thus be characterized asrendering a “snapshot” of current mortality experience. Inthis section, the term “life table” refers to the current lifetable only and not to the generation life table.

The life table program

There are three series of life tables prepared in theNational Center for Health Statistics— complete, provi-sional abridged, and final abridged life tables. The completelife tables for the U.S. population contain life table valuesfor single years of age and are based on decennial censusdata and deaths for a 3-year period about the census yearand have been prepared since 1900. The provisional abridgedlife tables contain values by age groups and are based on a10-percent sample of deaths. The final abridged life tables(referred to in this section as “abridged life tables”) alsocontain values by age groups but are basecl’ on a completecount of all reported deaths.

In response to a growing number of requests for po.st-censal life table values, a series of abridged life tables wasinitiated in 1945. Available annually since that year, theabridged life tables are based on deaths ‘occurring duringthe calendar year and on midyear postcensal populationestimates provided by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Refine-ments in both the techniques for estimating population andthe methods for constructing abridged life tables permit thepreparation of abridged life tables which provides reasonablyaccurate data on current trends in expectation of life andsurvivorship. Abridged life tables for 1945 to 1952 were

constructed by the Greville method; 1 since 1953, a modified2 The 1945 abridged life tablesmethod has been emplo’yed.

were prepared for white and all other males and females.Since 1946, abridged life tables for the total population havealso been available, and since 1957, abridged life tableshave been calculated for total males and total females, re-gardless of color. Starting with 1959, additional abridgedlife tables have been published for the total white and “allother” population, regardless of sex.

Numerous requests, have been received annually forcurrent life table statistics that are more detailed than thoseavailable in the abridged life tables. Therefore tables showingIX and $X values by single years of age interpolated from th,?abridged life tables have been published since 1960.

The demand for information regarding up-to-date lifetable values has been responsible for the introduction of athird series, provisional abridged life tables. Starting with1958, provisional abridged life tables have been published,for the total population only, in the “Annual Summary forthe United States, ” Monthly Vitul Statistics Repovt. Valuesin these life tables are based on population estimates pro-vided by the Bureau of the Census and on the estimatednumber of deaths derived from the “Current Mortality Sam-ple” (CMS). The CMS consists of one-tenth of the death cer-tificates filed in the vital statistics registration offices (50States and the cities of Washington, D.C., Baltimore, NewOrleans, and New York). The sample is taken by selectingone certificate out of every 10 death certificates receivedbetween two dates a month apart.’

Life table values for 1970

The data used to prepare the abridged U.S. life tablesfor 1970 are the final mortality statistics and the midyearestimates of the population by age, color, and sex preparedby the U.S. Bureau of the Census.” Sample life table statis-tics for 1970 are shown in table 5-A. The text will refer tovalues for the total U.S. population; however, the same typeof statistics may be applied to each color-sex group.

Exfiectation of life. —The” most frequently used life tablestatistic is the expectation of life (8X) , i.e., the average re-maining lifetime in years for persons who have attained agiven age (x) . Expectation of lie at specified ages in 1970is shown for the total population and by color and sex intable 5-1. In addition, expectations of life by single yearsof age, by color and sex, are shown in table 5-3.

Life expectancy at birth(~.)is 70.9 years, which re-presents the average number o? years that the members ofthe life table cohort may expect to live at the time of birth.Text table 5-A shows the higher life expectancy of femalesas compared with males within each color group, and ofwhites as compared with those in the all other category. Atage 1, life expectancy is 71.3 years, which is higher than atbirth. This is a result of surviving the first year, when themortality rate is very high. Remaining years of expectedlifetime are also shown in table 5-A forages 21 and 65 years.

Suvvivovs to specified ages. —Another way of assessing

longevity of the life table cohort is by determining the pro-portion of it that lives to specified ages. The IX columnprovides the data for computing the proportion. For instance,71,858 out of the original 100,000 (or 71.9 percent) werealive at exact age 65 (table 5-2). Survivorship to other ages,by color and sex, is shown as percentage in table 5-A.

Medtin le~h of life. — Instead of determining the pro-portion alive at a specified age, one can compute the age atwhich a specified proportion of the cohort is still alive. Forexample, one can determine the age at which exactly halfthe cohort (50,000 persons) still remain alive, and half havedied. This value, known as the median age at death, is shownat the bottom of table 5-A, by color and sex. For example,the median age for white males is 7.9 years less than forwhite females.

Trends and comparisons

The geographic areas covered in life tables prior to1929-31 were limited to the death-registration areas. Lifetables for 1919-21 were constructed using mortality datafrom the 1920 death-registration States— 34 States and theDistrict of Columbia—and for 1900-1902 and 1909-11 fromthe 1900 death-registration States—10 States and the Dis-trict of Columbia. The tables for 1929-31 through 1958 coverthe conterminous United States. Decennial life table valuesfor the 3-year period 1959-61 are derived from data whichinclude both Alaska and Hawaii for each year (table 5-4).Data for each year shown in table 5-5 include Alaska for1959 and both Alaska and Hawaii beginning with 1960. I-low-

ever, it is not believed that the inclusion of these two Statesmaterially affects life table values.

Trends in life table values are shown in tables 5-4 and

5-5. Table 5-4 shows the expectation of life, and the numberof cohort survivors at specified ages around census yearssince 1900, and for 1969 and 1970. Life expectancy amongwhite males exactly 20 years old, for instance, has increasedfrom 42.2 years in 1900-1902 to 50.3 years in 1970 (texttable 5-B). Where 39.2 percent of white males survivedto age 65 in 1900-1902, now 66.2 percent survive to this age.

There has been an increasing interest in data on averagelength of life (~o)for single calendar years prior to the ini-tiation of the annual abridged life table series in 1945. Theestimated. figures in table 5-5 were computed to meet these

needs.4 For example, life expectancy has increased by 3.4years among white females since .1950, or an average in-crease of 0.17 year of Iife per calendar year. Values forother years, by color and sex, are shown in table 5-B.

Technical appendix

live birth, death, and fetal death in use at the beginningof 1962. The item was restored during the latter part of1962. However, the certificate revision without this itemwas used for most of 1962 as well as for 1963. For com-puting vital rates, populations by age, color, and sex ex-cIuding New Jersey were estimated to obtain comparabledenominators. Approximately 7 percent of the New Jerseydeath recoqds for 1964 did not contain the race designation;when the records were being electronically processed, the“race not stated” deaths were allocated to white or Negro.

Nonresidents, 1970.— Beginning in 1970, the deaths ofnonresidents of che United States have been excluded from “the life table statistics.

5-6 SECTION 5- LIFE TABLES

Explanation of the Columns of the Life Table

Column l—Age intevvaz (x to x+ n). —The age intervalshown in column 1 is the interval between the two exact

ages indicated. For instance, “20-25” means the S-yearinterval between the 20th birthday and the 25th.

Column 2-Proportion dying (nqx) .—This column showsthe proportion of the cohort who are alive at the beginningof an indicated age interval and who will die before reachingthe end of that age interval. For example, for males in theage interval 20-25, the proportion dying is 0.0112—out ofevery 1,000 males alive and exactly 20 years old at the be-ginning of the period 11 will die before reaching their 25thbirthday. In other words, the “9X values represent ~oba-bi,lities that persons who are alive at the beginning of aspecific age interval will die before reaching the beginningof the next age interval. The “proportion dying” columnforms the basis of the life table; the life table is so con-structed that all other columns are derived from it.

Column 3—Numbk surviving .—This column showsthe number of persons, starting with a cohort of 100,000live births, who survive to the exact age marking the be-ginning of each age interval. The IX values are computedfrom the .9X values, which are successively applied to theremainder of the original 100,000 persons still alive at thebeginntig of each age interval. Thus out of 100,000 malebabies born alive, 97,745 will complete the first year oflife and enter the second; 97,298 will begin the sixth year;96,128 will reach age 20; and 13,256 will live to age 85.

Column 4—Numbw dying (ndx) .—This column showsthe number dying in each successive age interval out of100,000 live births. Out of 100,000 males born alive, 2,255die in the first year of life, 364 in the succeeding 4 years,1,079 in the 5-year period between exact ages 20 and 25,and 13,256 die after reaching age 85. Each figure in column4 is the difference between two successive figures in column3.

Columns 5 and 6—Statiomvy popuhtion (nLx and~).—

Suppose that a group of 100,000 individuals like that as-sumed in columns 3 and 4 is born every year and that theproportions dying in each such group in each age intervalthroughout the lives of the members are exactly thoseshown in column 2. If there were no migration and if thebirths were evenly distributed over the calendar year,the survivors of these births would make up what iscalled a stationery population— stationar y because insuch a population the number of persons living in anygiven age group would never change. When an individualleft the group, either by death or by growing older andentering the next higher age group, his place would im-mediately be taken by someone entering from the nextlower age group. Thus a census taken at any time insuch a stationary community would always show the sametotal population and the same numerical distribution ofthat population among the various age groups. In such astationary population supported by 100,OOO annual births,column 3 shows the number of persons who, each year,

.

reach the birthday which marks the beginning of the age in-terval indicated in column 1, and column 4 shows thenumber of persons who die each year in the indicated ageinterval.

Column 5 shows the number of persons in the stationarypopulation in the indicated age interval. For example, the ,figure given for males in the age interval 20-25 is 477,977.This means that in a stationary population of males sup-ported by 100,000 annual births and with proportions dyingin each age group always in accordance with column 2, acensus taken on any date would show 477,977 persons betweenexact ages 20 and 25.

Column 6 shows the total number of persons in thestationary population (column 5) in the indicated age intervaland all subsequent age intervals. For example, in the sta-tionary population of males referred to in the last illustra-tion, column 6 shows that there would be at any given mo-ment a total of 4,769,722 persons who have passed their20th birthday. The population at all ages O and above (inother words, the total population of the stationary commu-nity) would be 6,711,932.

Column 7—Avwageremaining lifetime (~x) .—The av-erage remaining lifetime (also called expectation of life) atany given age is the average number of years remaining tobe lived by those surviving to that age on the basis of a givenset of age-specific rates of dying. In order to arrive atthis value, it is first necessary to observe that the figuresin column 5 of the life table can also be interpreted in termsof a single life table cohort without introducing the conceptof the stationary population. From this point of view, eachfigure in column s represents the total time (in years) livedbetween two indicated birthdays by all those reaching theearlier birthday among the survivors of a cohort of 100,000live births. Thus the figure 477,977 for males in the age in-terval 20-25 is the total number of years lived between the20th and 25th birthdays by the 96,128 (column 3) who reachedthe 20th birthday out of 100,000 males born alive. The cor-responding figure (4,769,722) in column 6 is the total numberof years lived after attaining age 20 by the 96,128 reachingthat age. This number of years divided by the number ofpersons (4,769,722 divid&d by 96,128) gives 49.6 years as theaverage remaining lifetime of males at age 20.

Care must be exerci~ed in drawing conclusions from thefigures in column 7. Thus in observing that the average re-maining lifetime of white persons is greater than for thosein the all other category, one should not conclude that theoldest ages reached by white persons necessarily exceedthose attained by the most long-lived of the all other group.The difference in the average length of life results from thefact that a greater proportion of all other persons die beforereaching old age. For example, the number surviving to age65 out of 100,000 born alive is far greater among white per.sons than among all other persons; yet the average length oflife remaining at age 65 is nearly the same for both groups.
