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.'
