to address the question of whether a mortality risk associated with depression in a 1952 representative sample of Stirling County adults changed in a new sample in 1970, and whether there was a change in associations with cigarette smoking and alcoholism. ⋯ the mortality associated with depression did not change during the period from 1952 to 1970.
