Published: 01 February 2022
...Marília R. Nepomuceno; Qi Cui; Alyson van Raalte; José Manuel Aburto; Vladimir Canudas-Romo Abstract Lifespan variation is a key metric of mortality that describes both individual uncertainty about the length of life and heterogeneity in population health. We propose a novel and timely lifespan...

..., limiting the discussion on lifespan inequality to mean differences alone overlooks other dimensions of inequality and particularly disparities in lifespan variation. The latter represents a unique form of inequality, with higher variation translating into greater uncertainty in the time of death from...
