几种可能的解释，黑人相对于白人在美国人口的先进年龄的死亡率较低进行了讨论和评估。通过分析1969年美国人口的原因和年龄特异性死亡率，研究了“交叉”的可接受性。两个拟议的模型占过程中的交叉效应的评价是通过确定其一致性与观察到的死亡率数据和独立的生物学，临床和流行病学证据的种族差异的病因学的死亡原因。
Several possible explanations for the lower mortality rates of Blacks relative to whites at advanced ages in the U.S. population are discussed and evaluated. The plausibility of the “crossover” is investigated via an analysis of the cause and age-specific mortality rates for the U.S. population in 1969. An evaluation of two proposed models accounting for processes leading to the crossover effect is made by determining their consistency with both the observed mortality data and independent biological, clinical and epidemiological evidence on racial differences in the etiology of the causes of death.
