VERA, Francisco et al. Mortality tables of continental Ecuador using a survival analysis. Pap. poblac [online]. 2018, vol.24, n.97, pp.63-83. ISSN 2448-7147. https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2018.97.25.
According to previous research carried out on mortality in Ecuador, the country has life tables drawn from the 2001 census data, however, there are no updated tables. Although mortality tables are usually analyzed by sex, there are other factors that are influential. This research goal is to identify whether factors such as sex and the area of residence influence the survival of the population of mainland Ecuador by 2010.To determine the factors that influence the survival of the population, the Logistic Regression technique was used, and for the construction of the mortality tables, the classic actuarial method is used. The analysis shows that sex, area of residence and its interaction, affect the survival of the population.
