From the publication:
Summary This paper continues the series by Mancuso, Stewart and Kneale (MSK) on studies of cancer risks for radiation workers at Hanford. It concentrates on the statistical problems posed by the need to estimate and control for job related mortality risks when there are several changes of occupation and no certainty about how different occupations are related to two socio-economic factors which have strong health associations, namely, education and income. The final conclusion is that for tissues which are sensitive to cancer-induction by radiation there is a cancer risk for Hanford exposures whose dose response is curvilinear with long latency and increasing effect with increasing exposure age.
