A Multilevel Hazards Model for Child Mortality in Nigeria
Journal Title: Annals of Biostatistics & Biometric Applications (ABBA) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 3
Abstract
Many researchers have devoted considerable attention to the impact of individual-level factors on child mortality, but little is known about how family and community characteristics affect health of children. Trend in child mortality as well as its determinants, has long been the subject of academic and policy debates. In spite of this, the problem of child mortality remains as daunting as ever. In fact, advancement in medical sciences and the upsurge in information and telecommunication technology equipment have not significantly reduced child mortality in the country, unlike in the West.
