生存分析被用来研究预测价值的配偶额定的限制，由于健康问题和配偶额定的预期寿命为3年的死亡率在社区样本的老年澳大利亚已婚夫妇，净健康状况指标，健康行为，和社会人口因素。还对影响的性别差异以及与健康和预期寿命自我评价的经验重叠进行了测试。研究结果表明，这两个配偶评级是预测丈夫的死亡率，而妻子的死亡率的平行措施是没有预测的调整后的模型。妻子的评分不能替代其他健康指标或对健康和预期寿命的自我评分。独立效应表明，妻子更敏锐的记者或法官的丈夫的死亡风险，或妻子的看法表明有形的影响丈夫的健康和死亡风险。未来的分析应致力于寻找将配偶的看法与健康结果联系起来的机制。
Survival analyses are used to examine the predictive value of spouse-rated limitations due to health problems and spouse-rated life expectancy for 3-year mortality in a community sample of elderly Australian married couples, net of health status indicators, health behaviors, and sociodemographic factors. Tests for gender differences in the effects and for empirical overlap with self-ratings of health and life expectancy were also done. Findings show that both spouse-ratings are predictive of husbands' mortality, while for wives' mortality the parallel measures are not predictive in the adjusted model. Wives' ratings are not substitutes for other health indicators or for self-ratings of health and life expectancy. The independent effect suggests that wives are more astute reporters or judges of their husbands' mortality risk or that wives' perceptions indicate tangible influences on husbands' health and mortality risk. Future analyses should be directed toward finding mechanisms linking spouse perceptions to health outcomes.
