Abstract
Three methods were used to calculate the angles β between the magnetic moment and the axis of rotation of central neutron stars for 307 known radio pulsars. There is no explicit statistical dependence of the calculated angles β on the kinematic age of pulsars. It follows from this that either the indicated angle does not change noticeably with the age of the pulsar, or pulsars are born with an arbitrary inclination angle.
