Abstract In applied problems one often wishes to compare the mortality experience of two or more groups of individuals who are known not to be comparable with respect to a covariable. This paper presents an approach to this problem by assuming that the force of mortality for each individual is a function of the covariable. Extension to the case where more than one covariable is present is indicated. It is also suggested that the present method is adaptable to an actuarial type analysis.
