CORRECTIONS & CLARIFICATIONS

American Demographics, Dec 1, 2003

*

In "Ones Add Up Fast" (November 2003), the text should have read: Household formation among singles is up 20 percent decade-on-decade, between the 1990 and 2000 census cycles, with a disproportionate rate of growth among men, at 28 percent versus women, at 15 percent.

*

In "The 'All-By-Myself' Factor" chart that accompanies the same story, the column heads should be switched. For example, men ages 30 to 49 who live alone are more likely than men of the same age who live with someone else to purchase devilled ham. In similar vein, women ages 30 to 49 who live alone are more likely to buy gin than women of the same age who live with someone else.

We regret the errors.
