Biological mortality bias is the idea that individuals who perish (non‐survivors) are biologically distinct from those who survive (survivors). If biological mortality bias is large enough, bioarchaeological studies of nonsurvivors (skeletal samples) cannot accurately represent the experiences of the survivors of that population. This effect is particularly problematic for the study of juvenile individuals, as growth is particularly sensitive to environmental insults. In this study, we test whether biological mortality bias exists in one dimension of growth, namely dental development.

当代儿童牙齿形成时间中缺乏生物死亡率偏倚：对过去人群研究的启示

生物死亡率偏差是这样的观念，即灭亡的个体（非幸存者）在生物学上与幸存的个体（幸存者）不同。如果生物死亡率偏倚足够大，则非幸存者（骨骼样本）的生物考古学研究将无法准确地代表该群体幸存者的经历。由于生长对环境侮辱特别敏感，因此这种作用对于研究青少年个体尤其成问题。在这项研究中，我们测试了生物死亡率偏倚是否存在于生长的一个方面，即牙齿发育。
