About
Mortality rates worldwide offer valuable insights for examining country-wise health infrastructure and determining necessary policy decisions. Recent global events have highlighted the critical importance of healthcare facilities and advancements, prompting questions about equity and quality across different regions. The data explores how mortality rates reflect national policies; for example, lower mortality in certain countries can influence government decisions regarding policies for foreign students, fee structures, and infrastructure.
Columns
The dataset contains five columns detailing various mortality metrics:
- Country Name: Identifies the nation associated with the observations (184 unique values).
- Year of observation: Specifies the year the data point was recorded (18 unique values).
- Adult mortality rate (probability of dying between 15 and 60 years per 1000 population) - Both sexes: The likelihood of death for adults across genders (477 unique values).
- Adult mortality rate (probability of dying between 15 and 60 years per 1000 population) - Males: The likelihood of death specifically for the male population (493 unique values).
- Adult mortality rate (probability of dying between 15 and 60 years per 1000 population) - Females: The likelihood of death specifically for the female population (462 unique values).
Distribution
The data is typically provided in a CSV format, specifically the file named
Adult mortality.csv, which is approximately 116.12 kB in size. It consists of 5 distinct columns and 3112 valid records, with no reported missing or mismatched entries. The data structure is uniform, featuring mortality rates classified by age and gender globally.Usage
