Knowledge of trends in life expectancy is of major importance for policy planning. It is also a key indicator for assessing future development of life insurance products, substantiality of existing retirement schemes, and long‐term care for the elderly. This article examines the feasibility of decomposing age‐gender‐specific accidental and natural mortality rates. We study this decomposition by using the Lee and Carter model. In particular, we fit the Poisson log‐bilinear version of this model proposed by Wilmoth and Brouhns et al. to historical (1975–1998) Spanish mortality rates. In addition, by using the model introduced by Wilmoth and Valkonen we analyze mortality‐gender differentials for accidental and natural rates. We present aggregated life expectancy forecasts compared with those constructed using nondecomposed mortality rates.

AbstractWe investigate the relationship between eudaimonic wellbeing (sense of life) and subjective survival probability (SSP), a proxy for self‐assessed life expectancy. Our econometric analysis uses 220,601 observations of SHARE panel data from 2006 to 2015. We find evidence of a robust and strong positive relationship between eudaimonic wellbeing and subjective survival probability after controlling for self‐assessed health, coupled with a negative effect of sense of life on mortality. The magnitude of the first effect is relevant, since the minimum difference (adjusted for fixed effects) between individuals declaring the highest versus the lowest sense of life is a 7‐point higher self‐assessed probability of being alive at the target age. Together, our two main findings imply that when respondents declare a high sense of life, they self‐report a lower mortality risk and their predictions are correct.
