Abstract

In the work, on the basis of the gender differentiation coefficient, the demographic profile shall be determined and the age periods of the decrease in the male population of the Volgograd region shall be established. In urban living conditions, the decline begins at the age of 30-34; in rural conditions - from 50-54 years. However, the fact of a fast decrease in the proportion of men 60-64 years old living in rural areas of the Volgograd region was revealed. This decrease has a number of interrelated reasons: firstly, at a given age, labor activity decreases, the social status of a person changes; secondly, the decline in labor activity is superimposed on a kind of shortage of leisure activities that maintain a high socio-cultural standard of living of this age stratum. The vacuum of creative social activity is filled with elements of addictive behavior, increased consumption of alcohol, family conflicts, and gender-based violence at home, which are the triggers of the loss of gender balance. Analysis of the trend of the gender differentiation coefficient in 13 age groups (from "16-17 years old" to "over 70 years old"), taking into account the "comfort / hypo-comfort" of living conditions, made it possible to establish an inversion of the dominance of this factor for people of the older age group of the population. Upon reaching the pre-retirement and retirement age, emotional-psychological, inherently endogenous factors, the transformation of a person’s social status, a deficit of full-fledged active leisure become predominant in terms of limiting life expectancy and determine the rate of premature aging of the population.
