Contour decomposition of mortality differences over age, comparing population groupings with the frontier state Baden-Württemberg (BW). For details on population groupings (East High, East Low, West Low), see Online Supplementary Appendix A, available as Supplementary data at IJE online. The initial (1982–1984) and final (2010–2014) life expectancy at age 5 years values per state grouping were as follows: Women—East High (71.3, 78.4); East Low (70.9, 77.8); West Low (72.0, 77.7); Baden-Württemberg (74.1, 79.1). Men—East High (65.9, 72.6); East Low (64.9, 71.8); West Low (65.0, 72.6); Baden-Württemberg (67.8, 74.5).
