然而,其他研究尚未发现这种相关性。一项使用丹麦和奥地利人口(在此期间总共有2,052,680人死亡)的研究发现,虽然人们的寿命往往与他们的出生月相关,但没有一致的生日效应,秋天或冬天出生的人是更有可能在他们生日后的几个月内死去。一项关于1995年至2009年德国所有癌症死亡的研究发现没有生日效应的证据,尽管确实发现了相关的圣诞效应。 Leonard Zusne的一项小型研究发现男性和女性同龄人的生日效应,女性更有可能在生日前立即死亡,而男性更容易在之后立即死亡,但是当平均在一起时,人群中没有生日效应。整个。英格兰和威尔士的死亡率数据研究也是如此,其中每个亚组(男性和女性,未婚,已婚,离婚和丧偶)的生日效应具有统计学意义,但在人群中未见为整个。
