Description:This report describes the methodology employed in the preparation of the 1979–81 decennial life tables for the United States, the 50 individual States, and the District of Columbia. These tables are based on the 1980 U.S. census populations and the deaths of 1979–81. The methodology involved in the development of the 1979–81 life tables for the United States by causes of death is highly specitilzed and is described in the report containing those tables. 1 In addition, definitions of the usual life-table functions may be found in other reports of this series.
An ad hoc committee was formed in 1977 to consider the content and methodology of the 1979–81 decennial liie tables. All of its recommendations were adopted, including use of the 1969–7 1 life-table methodology and first-time publication of standard errors.
