PIP: This is a critical analysis of six papers presented at a seminar on adult mortality and orphanhood in the past, held in San Jose, Costa Rica, December 12-14, 1984. The geographical focus is on Latin America. Consideration is given to the limitations of the data, the high prevalence of illegitimacy, the confusion between natural and adoptive parents, and differences in the definition of marriage among the various populations. The author outlines measures to improve the usefulness of future studies on Latin American adult mortality. (summary in ENG)^ieng
