abstract: 'Study objective: To examine the effect of family welfare index ( FWI)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and maternal education on the probability of infant death.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Design: A population based multistage stratified clustered survey.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Setting: Women of reproductive age in Indonesia between 1983 - 1997.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Data sources: The 1997 Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Main results: Infant mortality was associated with FWI and maternal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education. Relative to families of high FWI, the risk of infant death
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
was almost twice among families of low FWI ( aOR= 1.7, 95\% CI= 0.9 to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3.3), and three times for families of medium FWI ( aOR= 3.3,95\% CI= 1.7
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to 6.5). Also, the risk of infant death was threefold higher ( aOR= 3.4,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
95\% CI= 1.6 to 7.1) among mothers who had fewer than seven years of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
formal education compared with mothers with more than seven years of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
education. Fertility related indicators such as young maternal age,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
absence from contraception, birth intervals, and prenatal care, seem to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exert significant effect on the increased probability of infant death.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusions: The increased probability of infant mortality attributable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to family income inequality and low maternal education seems to work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
through pathways of material deprivation and chronic psychological
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stress that affect a person''s health damaging behaviours. The policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that are likely to significantly reduce the family''s socioeconomic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality in infant mortality are implicated.'
