Study of Effective Factors on child Mortality in Esfahan Province (Case Study in Dehaghan and Shahreza)

The present research is a conductive study and aims at showing the conditions of child mortality in Esfhan Province and, in general, the condition of socioeconomic development in Iran. The decline in the mortality of infants (o-1) and children (14) has been the most noticeable among others. The fall in the child mortality has in fact been the result of the decrease in mortality of infectious and parasitic diseases. One can confidently say that among different parameters, the parameter of child mortality is a very suitable factor in determining the level of development in different societies due to the fact that many of the factors determining child mortality are related to the conditions of the families in which the children are born and brought up. Mortality in general and child mortality specifically is a phenomenon that works under some determiners. Strength and weakness of these factors cause the incidence or control of mortality. In this survey we have tried to study the effect of direct and indirect factors individually and in groups. Thus with regards to the purpose of this study some hypotheses with the variables like level of motherʹs education, working or housewife mothers, fathersʹ occupation, family eating habits, number of children in the family have been taken into consideration.
