Study Notes

Demography and Health Statistics

  • Frite Index: SS indicates a population with low life expectancy.
  • A live birth is considered to be a child born alive.

Censuses

  • The variables collected in a census are personal and building data.
  • The collection is individualized.
  • The responsibility of the municipality is not correct.

Demographic Indicators

  • The crude birth rate is not a good indicator for comparisons between countries with different social structures.
  • A synthetic fertility index of 2 does not indicate a good chance of survival of a country's species.
  • According to the Swagron index, the closer to 100%, the worse the health status of the country is.

Health Status Indicators

  • The best indicator of health status is life expectancy at birth.
  • Maternal mortality and infant mortality are not the best indicators of health status.

Fetal Mortality

  • Fetal mortality includes deaths from conception to birth.

Demographic Indices

  • Fritz Index 79.94 and Sundbare A-30.27 and B-47.71 indicate a mature and regressive population, respectively.

Maternal Mortality

  • The numerator of the maternal mortality formula includes women who die from pregnancy-related causes.

Infant Mortality

  • A lower infant mortality rate indicates a higher level of health and culture.
  • The denominator of the infant mortality formula is the total number of live births in that year.

Fertility Indicators

  • The average number of children per woman at the end of her fertile life gives the gross reproduction rate.

Demographic Analysis

  • In a population classified as progressive, the old-age dependency ratio is likely to be low.
  • A country with a low birth rate, low mortality rate, and high life expectancy is considered a mature population.

Gross Mortality Rates

  • Gross mortality rates cannot be compared directly between countries without knowing their demographic structures.

Health Promotion

  • Reducing social inequalities improves health and reduces premature death.
  • The health promotion movement was not an urgent worker-driven action.
