In Western countries of the Northern hemisphere, mortality is typically larger in winter than in summer which is attributed to the detrimental effects of cold to health. This does, however, not explain why in colder countries the differences between winter and summer mortality are smaller than in countries with warm or moderate climate. This book, therefore, investigates whether sociodemographic and socioeconomic factors play a role as important for seasonal mortality as they do for mortality in general. Using modern statistical methods, the book shows, for example for the United States, that the fluctuations between winter and summer mortality are smaller the more years someone has spent in school. 410 0$aDemographic Research Monographs, A Series of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research,$x1613-5520 606 $aPopulation 606 $aDemography 606 $aEpidemiology 606 $aPublic health 606 $aSociology 606 $aStatistics  606 $aPopulation Economics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W38000 606 $aDemography$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X25000 606 $aEpidemiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000 606 $aPublic Health$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H27002 606 $aSociology, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000 606 $aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/S17040 615 0$aPopulation. 615 0$aDemography. 615 0$aEpidemiology. 615 0$aPublic health. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aStatistics . 615 14$aPopulation Economics. 615 24$aDemography. 615 24$aEpidemiology. 615 24$aPublic Health. 615 24$aSociology, general. 615 24$aStatistics for Social Sciences, Humanities, Law. 676 $a304.6/4 700 $aRau$b Roland$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0888230 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996320678503316 996 $aSeasonality in Human Mortality$92144245 997 $aUNISA
