Answer the same question as Problem 10.32 considering 36- to 45-year-old males only?


Mental Health

A study was performed in Lebanon looking at the effect of widowhood on mortality [14]. Each of 151 widowers and 544 widows were matched to a person married at the time of widowhood and of the same age (± 2 years) and gender. The people in the matched pairs were followed until one member of the matched pair died. The results in Table 10.27 were obtained for those matched pairs in which at least one member had died by 1980.
