| Title | Male-Female life expectancy differences in 21 developing countries,1990-2006" |
| Summary | The research scope of the given thesis is the impact of the development of the country on the Male:Female Life Expectancy Difference. The research is based on the data across 21 developing countries within 1990 – 2006. During this analysis no direct impact of the socio-economic development indicators on the Life Expectancy Difference between males and females is determined. The indirect effect of these factors on the Life Expectancy Difference is assessed, which is due to their correlation with the circulatory system diseases as well as infectious and parasitic diseases directly affecting M:F LED. The conclusion is that in the short term factors, describing the level of development of the state, decrease LED between males and females in the developing countries indirectly, still in long run term the situation may change. |
