    The factors associated with under-five mortality in Zambia
    (2003) Zuze, Tia Linda; Bakilana, Anne
    Zambia's under-five mortality rate is among the highest in the world. In 1996 it stood at 197 per 1,000 live births (Zambia Central Statistics Office 1997). The study aims to establish the factors that are associated with under-five mortality in Zambia by using the 1996 Zambia Demographic and Health Survey. Results are compared to an earlier investigation by Nsemukila (1996) that used the 1992 survey and an adapted Mosley-Chen analytical framework. The construction of variables and analytical techniques are aimed at producing comparable results. As in the previous study, the inclusion of behavioural and proximate variables fails to explain the impact of socio-economic and cultural factors on neonatal mortality but has a greater influence at later periods in a child's life. Another similarity to the previous work is that maternal education only plays an important role in reducing under-five mortality at the childhood stage. Differences arise in the significance of individual variables, to a lesser extent at the neonatal and post-neonatal stage but more so at the level of childhood mortality.
