Proper Citation: Human Mortality Database (RRID:SCR_002370)
Description: A database providing detailed mortality and population data to those interested in the history of human longevity. For each country, the database includes calculated death rates and life tables by age, time, and sex, along with all of the raw data (vital statistics, census counts, population estimates) used in computing these quantities. Data are presented in a variety of formats with regard to age groups and time periods. The main goal of the database is to document the longevity revolution of the modern era and to facilitate research into its causes and consequences. New data series is continually added to this collection. However, the database is limited by design to populations where death registration and census data are virtually complete, since this type of information is required for the uniform method used to reconstruct historical data series. As a result, the countries and areas included are relatively wealthy and for the most part highly industrialized. The database replaces an earlier NIA-funded project, known as the Berkeley Mortality Database. * Dates of Study: 1751-present * Study Features: Longitudinal, International * Sample Size: 37 countries or areas
