摘要

The article aims to quantify the relationship between city-level socioeconomic conditions in Israel and the incidence of fatal unintentional childhood injury. We gathered city-level socioeconomic data from a specialized socioeconomic mobility database and juxtaposed it against the most complete Israeli database of unintentional childhood mortality. We used regression analysis to arrive at a parsimonious model explaining more than half of the variance in the outcome variable. We discuss implications for public policy.
