6 Physical Health: 1. Are there sex differences in mortality and morbidity? (continued)

7 By the end of today’s class, you should be able to: 1. contrast sex differences in mortality in distinct regions of the world. 3. identify sex differences in the leading causes of death among Canadians. 2. explain cultural variation in sex differences in mortality.

8 5. describe the developmental trajectory associated with sex differences in morbidity. 6. discuss the relationship between sex differences in morbidity and gender equality. 4. identify sex differences in morbidity rates among Canadians.

9 Are there sex differences in mortality and morbidity? (continued)

AgeMaleFemale Male:Female Death Ratio 1-41, , , ,6172, ,4825, ,8299, ,75315, ,64932, > 8524,89844, Annual Number of Deaths by Sex and Age (Statistics Canada, 2010)

11  Consistent with these findings, the current and projected life expectancies of females in Canada and other “developed” countries exceed those of males:

MalesFemales Life expectancy at birth in 2002 Life expectancy at birth in 2031 Current and Projected Life Expectancies for Males and Females in Canada (Statistics Canada, 2010; World Factbook, 2012)

13  Sex differences in life expectancy are more variable in “developing” countries than in developed countries. Nevertheless, in the vast majority of countries, females outlive males:

15  Today, “lifestyle” diseases are the primary causes of death among Canadians. The mortality rates for the 5 top causes of death in Canada are higher among males than females:

17 2.Morbidity  As life span has lengthened, morbidity rates have increased.  Females suffer more acute illnesses and nonfatal chronic illnesses than males.

20  Moreover, although the morbidity-free life expectancy of both females and males has declined, it has declined more dramatically among females than males:

MalesFemales Average number of morbidity-free years in Average number of morbidity-free years in Morbidity-Free Life Expectancy by Sex and Year (Perenboom et al., 2005) 21

22  In childhood, morbidity is greater among males than females. The sex difference reverses in pre- adolescence, with females reporting greater morbidity.  Sex differences in morbidity are smaller in countries with a relatively high Gender Development Index.

23 By the end of today’s class, you should be able to: 1. contrast sex differences in mortality in distinct regions of the world. 3. identify sex differences in the leading causes of death among Canadians. 2. explain cultural variation in sex differences in mortality.
