abstract = {This article shows that in two European countries, Austria
and Denmark, a person’slife span correlates with his or
her month of birth. It presents evidence that this pattern
is not the result of the seasonal distribution of death. It
also shows that the seasonal pattern inlongevity cannot be
explained by the so-called “birthday effect”– the
alleged tendency of people to die shortly after their
birthday. The article concludes with a discussion of
possible social and biological mechanisms related to a
person’s season of birth that might influence
lifeexpectancy.},
