An evaluation of brass mortality estimates under conditions of declining mortality
An evaluation of the Brass childhood mortality estimates under conditions of declining mortality shows them to overestimate current mortality. Error increases as the rate of mortality decline increases, as the childhood age up to which cumulative mortality is being estimated increases, and as age at onset of childbearing decreases. We use the results to develop a method for correcting the Brass estimates for the effects of quasistability. The met…
Fertility in Bangladesh
Based on data from a 1969 national fertility survey in Bangladesh, the crude birth rate was estimated at 42, with estimates for urban residents slightly lower than those for rural residents The total marital fertility rate was found to be 6·93. For women over 40 years of age the average cumulative number of live births was 6·5, with 4·7 surviving at the time of interview (72 per cent) The infant mortality rate for 1966–68 was 113, which appears t…
