A new measure of mortality differentials based on precedence probability


Abstract:

This short note aims to propose a new comparison measure for life tables: the age shift needed to restore equality of survival chance as measured by the precedence probability. Mortality by household income in France and by generation in Belgium is used as an illustration.
