Infant Mortality Differentials among Hispanic Groups in Florida.
Hummer, Robert A.; And Others
Social Forces, v70 n4 p1055-75 Jun 1992
Among 1980-82 Florida birth cohorts, infant mortality rates were higher for Puerto Ricans and Mexicans than for Cubans and other Hispanics. Controlling for birth weight and prenatal care had little impact on differentials, but interactions were found among marital status, maternal age, and Hispanic group identity. Contains 47 references.
