Dr. James H. Gundlach
Retired Sociology/Demography professor. I know the United States has an awfully high middle aged death rate. My goal is to explain it well enough to get people to fix it.
- For quite a while I have know that the more Republican a state is, the higher their death rate. Here I show what I produced to see where the party effect is by comparing death rates by party with each of the 136 detailed causes of death. See ALT for more. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- The effect of Evangelism on death rates has has not been well examined because of data problems. Here I evaluate the limited data from two sources measuring state percent Evangelical to see how well they predict Evangelical death rates. See ALT for more. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- Today I got a regular newsletter from a health care newsletter that listed the ten states with the best and the ten states with the worst health care. I put the graph there to give me space to post the ranked on but it is related. See text on how. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- Here is another look at the effect of Evangelicalism on death rates from 1968 through 2023 by ages 0-19, 20-64, and 65+. I have posted this graph here earlier but here I add the number of added deaths. Evangelicals add in text below. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- Here is a USA state map where the states are colored and numbered to show the difference between the state's age 20-64 and age 65+ death rate.s R's close to 2.0 mean that the state's middle age death rate has been constantly going up while the elderly is going down. Click ALT. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- This is a finished version of a graph I posted about two weeks ago that examines the Evangelical effect on state population aged 0-19 death rates. This analysis estimates excess Evangelical deaths add 31.9% to our young death rates. Click ALT to see the full description. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
- Here I make an abnormal use of that most used statistic, the correlation, aka r. Here I use it to show how deaths rates by single year age and race/ethnic group in the United States has changed from 1999 through 2023. Click ALT for more info. 🧪💡☠️ #Sociology
