	abstract = {This paper examines the quantitative importance of some predictors of mortality among the population aged 70 and over. As expected, this research confirms that socioeconomic status is  related to mortality. This relationship is strong at younger ages and appears to weaken as the cohort gets older. The 13 health indicators are also strong predictors of mortality.  Results also show that subjective probabilities of survival predict mortality and remain strong predictors even after controlling for socioeconomic indicators and health conditions.},
