Abstract

The effects of a wide variety of social life factors on the mortality of eight major working and non-working male populations aged 25-54 years in 46 Japanese prefectures were analysed by multiple regression analysis for the years 1970 and 1975. The results indicate that rural residence is the key factor associated with higher mortality among the male working population. However the mortality of the non-working population which is six to eight times higher than that of the working population is independent of the social factors affecting the mortality of the working population.
