Infant and Childhood Mortality Research in the Philippines: Review and Agenda

Costello, Michael A. Author_Email:

Philippine Journal of Development, 1988

Abstract: This article advocates for more focused research designs and the use of more complex causal models. Investigations of morbidity and mortality differentials indicate a higher death rate in urban than in rural areas. Further inquiry can be made to the dearth of studies conducted regarding mortality on infant and children.
