DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): 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 This project plans to gather and analyze unpublished aggregate- and individual-level data from local statistical offices in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan.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.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的目标是提高我们对前苏联中亚地区死亡率的认识，该地区最近获得了重要性。虽然人们对了解该地区的社会、经济和文化变化有很大的兴趣，但就该地区目前发挥的战略作用而言，人们对当地死亡率的变化过程知之甚少。除了填补与死亡率有关的信息方面的这些空白之外，该项目还将使我们更好地了解社会、经济和文化因素在决定发展中国家死亡率模式方面所能发挥的相对作用。该项目计划收集和分析乌兹别克斯坦、哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦、塔吉克斯坦和土库曼斯坦地方统计局未公布的总体和个人数据。对这些来源的分析将辅之以人口和健康调查以及生活水平衡量研究住户调查的数据。采用各种人口和统计方法将能够（a）评估这五个共和国中每一个共和国自1958年以来的数据质量及其变化;（B）估计这五个共和国中每一个共和国自1958年以来按种族和原因分列的死亡率;（c）分析与中亚最近死亡率水平、趋势和差异有关的行为、生物医学、经济、社会和文化因素。
