A Note on the Moderation Concept in the Life Course

The authors have advanced a moderation concept as relevant to understanding the aging process and some classes of potentially harmful behavior, such as alcohol abuse and smoking. Because studies have not been devised specifically to examine the process, statistical information cannot be directly interpreted as reflecting moderation. Competing hypotheses of cohort effects, attrition, and other effects cannot be discounted or partitioned with any confidence. Limited interpretations are advanced, and the research directions required are noted, along with the importance of the concept for possible policy formulation.
