本文以美国癌症协会癌症预防研究I为基础,根据吸烟习惯和健康状况提供了相当详细的死亡率,该研究I构成了目前可用于吸烟习惯研究的最大数据体。这项研究从1960年7月1日到1972年6月30日,涉及了100多万名男性和女性,其中大部分来自中产阶级。本研究中受试者的总体死亡率与1970- 1974年投保团体人寿保险的人的死亡率相似。65岁及65岁以上的人的经验类似于同一时期普通保单投保人的最终死亡率。按吸烟习惯和健康状况分列的死亡率数据为吸烟者/非吸烟者政策的定价提供了有价值的指导。它们还提供了迄今为止可用的更好的衡量内在性别差异的方法。
This paper presents considerably detailed death rates according to smoking habits and health status, based on the American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Study I, which constitutes the largest body of data currently available for the study of smoking habits. This study involved over one million men and women, selected largely from the middle class, traced from July 1, 1960 through June 30, 1972. The overall mortality of the subjects in this study was found to resemble that of persons covered by group life insurance during 1970-74. At ages 65 and older the experience was similar to that of contemporaneous ultimate mortality among persons insured under ordinary policies. The data on death rates according to smoking habits and health status provide valuable guidance for pricing smoker/nonsmoker policies. They also provide better measures of intrinsic sex differentials than have hitherto been available.
