女性的生育史会影响她的寿命吗？这项研究探讨了这个问题的数据，从当代女性人口的英格兰和威尔士和奥地利。这是第一个调查生育率和晚年死亡率之间关系的比较研究。我们发现两个人群中的超额死亡率的模式和年龄特定趋势相似：胎次显著影响寿命，早生和晚生也是如此。这些寿命上的差异不能用教育或家庭状况的差异来解释。然而，与妇女的教育水平或家庭状况的影响相比，妇女的生育史对其寿命的影响很小。
Does a woman's reproductive history influence her life span? This study explores the question with data from the contemporary female populations of England and Wales and Austria. It is the first comparative study to investigate the relationship between fertility and mortality late in life. We find similar patterns and age-specific trends of excess mortality in both populations: parity significantly influences longevity, as do both an early and a late birth. These differences in longevity are not explained by differences in educational or family status. The impact of a woman's reproductive history on her life span is small, however, compared to the influence of her level of education or family status.
