Vital Statistics
- Crude Birth Rate: number of live births per 1,000 people midyear population
- General Fertility Rate: number of live births per 1,000 women of childbearing age (15-44 years old) midyear population
- Age-Specific Fertility Rates: number of live births per 1,000 women in particular age groups (e.g. 15-19, 20-24)
Mortality Rates
- Crude Death Rate: number of deaths per 1,000 people midyear population
- Specific Mortality Rate: number of deaths in a specified group per 1,000 midyear population of the same group
- Cause-of-Death Rate: number of deaths from a specified cause per 1,000 midyear population
- Infant Mortality Rate: deaths under one year of age per 1,000 live births
- Maternal Mortality Rate: number of deaths due to pregnancy, delivery, and puerperium per 1,000 live births
- Proportionate Mortality Rate: number of deaths from a particular cause per total deaths
- Swaroop's Index: number of deaths among those 50 years and over per total deaths
- Case Fatality Rate: number of deaths from a specified cause per number of cases of the same disease
Morbidity Rates
- Incidence Rate: number of new cases of disease developing over a period of time per population at risk of developing the disease
- Prevalence Rate: number of old and new cases of a disease over population
Population Growth and Analysis
- Geometric Increase Method: assumes population increases at a constant rate per year, used to determine annual rate of population change
- Census Analysis: estimates over or undercounting, uses de jure or de facto methods for assigning people during census
- Vital Registration Systems: record vital events in the community, collecting information on families, households, and individual characteristics
- Population Study: study of character, number, and distribution of living organisms in particular places, providing a quantifiable foundation for concepts in sociology, ecology, genetics, and evolution.
