A computer algorithm for the assessment of age reporting bias in censal population estimates using Myers' 'blended'
Abstract:
A population's age structure is widely used in the computation of many vital statistics. The importance of highly accurate vital statistics cannot be overemphasized--such statistics are used extensively by governments to determine the proper allocation of health resources and services, and by demographers, sociologists and epidemiologists to study secular trends. A computer program has been developed for use on an Apple II+ microcomputer for the analysis of population age profiles and determination of age reporting bias.
