[ the author ] `` '' explores two hypotheses proposed to explain a reversal of the sex differential in mortality which appears in the 1968-72 death rates of wisconsin [ united states ] professionals . the first hypothesis proposes that the observed effect is attributable to differentials in the distribution of behavioural risk factors for leading cause of death ... .the second hypothesis posits that the effect may be due to differentials in occupational variables which have systematic gender-divergent outcomes . occupational levels , tasks , environments and careers all have the potential for such effects . the overall conclusion of the study is that health is systematically related to the quality of support and other conditions in the two major micro-environments for living : work and home .
