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.
