AbstractThe effect of any mortality factor on population trend is influenced greatly by other factors that operate contemporaneously within the same age interval, and by the extent to which it interacts with these other factors. A general equation which makes provision for different degrees of interaction is proposed as a simplified first step in the study of interaction, and some theoretical examples are presented to illustrate the importance of the interaction coefficient. Methods for obtaining estimates of the coefficient, both through statistical inference from field population data and through direct observation and experimentation, are discussed.
