How frailty models can be used for evaluating longevity limits: taking advantage of an interdisciplinary approach.

Demography - 1 Feb 1997

Yashin A I, Iachine I A

Abstract excerpt

In this paper we discuss an approach to the analysis of mortality and longevity limits when survival data on related individuals with and without observed covariates are available. The approach combines the ideas of demography and survival analysis with methods of quantitative genetics and geneti...
