The goal of this project is to improve our knowledge of mortality in former Soviet Central Asia, a region which gained importance recently. Although there is considerable interest in understanding social, economic and cultural change in the area, in regard to the strategic role that this region is currently playing, very little is known about local mortality processes. In addition to filling these gaps in contextual mortality information, this project will improve our understanding of the relative role that social, economic and cultural factors can play in determining mortality patterns in developing countries. This project plans to gather and analyze unpublished aggregate- and individual-level data from local statistical offices in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan. The analysis of these sources will be complemented by the use of data from Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) and Living Standards Measurement Study (LSMS) household surveys. The implementation of various demographic and statistical methods will permit (a) the assessment of data quality and changes therein for each of these five republics since 1958; (b) the estimation of ethnic-specific and cause-specific mortality rates for each of these five republics since 1958; (c) the analysis of behavioral, biomedical, economic, social and cultural factors associated with recent mortality levels, trends and differentials in Central Asia.

该项目的目标是提高我们对前苏联中亚死亡率的了解，该地区是一个 最近变得重要的地区。尽管人们对了解有很大兴趣 该地区的社会、经济和文化变革，以及该地区的战略作用 目前，人们对当地的死亡过程知之甚少。除了填写这些 由于上下文死亡率信息的差距，该项目将提高我们对相对死亡率信息的了解 社会、经济和文化因素在决定死亡率模式方面可以发挥的作用 发展中国家。 该项目计划收集和分析未发表的总体和个人层面的数据 乌兹别克斯坦、哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、塔吉克斯坦和土库曼斯坦的地方统计局。这 对这些来源的分析将通过人口和健康数据的使用得到补充 调查 (DHS) 和生活水平测量研究 (LSMS) 家庭调查。这 实施各种人口和统计方法将能够(a) 评估 自 1958 年以来这五个共和国的数据质量及其变化； (b) 估计 自 1958 年以来这五个共和国各民族和特定原因的死亡率； (三) 分析与近期相关的行为、生物医学、经济、社会和文化因素 中亚的死亡率水平、趋势和差异。
