    Author: Valkovics E.
    Journal: Stat Szle; 1988 Jan; 66(1):40-76. PubMed ID: 12341634.
    Abstract:
    "The author shows the Hungarian method of decomposition according to factors causing differences in life expectancies. He uses abridged mortality tables by causes of death of Hungary's male and female population in 1972-1973 and 1982....[The author explains that] the significant increase in the difference between males' and females' average life expectancies at birth can be explained primarily with the ever increasing differences in life expectancies of the victims of various causes of death shifted in favour of females."
