| Summary : Calculating Childhood Mortality Rates
|
Description :
Calculates childhood (neonatal, postneonatal, infant, child, and
under-five) mortality rates using Demographic and Health Survey (DHS)
microdata. The \'childhoodmortality\' package was developed in accordance
to the methodology outlined in the \"DHS Guide to Statistics\" (Rutstein
2006,
< http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/DHSG1/Guide_to_DHS_Statistics_29Oct2012_DHSG1.pdf>)
Specifically, the package uses a synthetic cohort life table approach,
combining mortality probabilities for age segments with actual cohort
mortality experience into more common age segments. Standard errors for
mortality estimates are computed using the jackknife repeated
replication method outlined in the \"Estimates of Sampling Errors\"
appendix of DHS Final Reports (DHS 2004,
< http://dhsprogram.com/pubs/pdf/FR175/19AppendixB.pdf>). This
methodology controls for sample design.
