Infant mortality rate, under-5 mortality rate, child mortality rate.
Under-5 is the most common measure.
- xboxnolifes 3y agoThat would be part of it. You'd have to multiply the mortality rate by the birth rate, right?
- paulddraper 3y agoFor population growth? Yeah I was responding to "children who made it to adulthood, per adult woman"
- smeej 3y agoI'm referring to the inverse of this, though. I'm looking for the number of children per family who do survive childhood.
- paulddraper 3y agoOkay so invert the number
- smeej 3y agoI want to do research on the stat and what people have learned about it. I'm specifically trying to find out what that stat would be called so I can search for it in existing research, not just how to calculate it.
