SPATIAL ANALYSIS OF MULTIDIMENSIONAL DEPRIVATION AND STUNTING AMONG INDIAN CHILDREN

The shrunk estimate of a smaller deprivation scores have been represented area (district) level proportion (or ratio) through a map to view the degree of is a weighted average of the two raw deprivation in each of the districts across proportions for the small area and the corresponding district. [...] The scores have been divided We associated the mean deprivation among all districts – 0 if the district is scores obtained with the prevalence of non-deprived of a particular indicator and the respective score if the district is deprived of that particular indicator. [...] where is the standardized variable of interest, wij is the standardized weight deprivation map which highlighted the matrix with zeroes on the diagonal and C extent of impoverishment or deprivation is the multiplier equivalent to N being the number of spatial units indexed by i makes it clear that mean deprivation exists and j;so being the sum of all. [...] This the results of Spatial Error models to multi-dimensional aspect has led to the account for the geospatial clustering in underpinning of the concept of multiple the exposure and the outcome variables. [...] These have today become one of the key tools to help the allocation of resources to the areas of utmost need.26, 27 Our paper CONCLUSION is largely based on the distribution of scores which depends on how the indices Subnational studies have revealed a are constructed and do not necessarily decreasing trend in the prevalence of stunting but, the rates are still high which local level and validatio.
