The Demographic Transition Model:
Development indicators:
These are development indicators, they help to judge how developed a country is:
- Literacy rate- Total percentage of the population aged 15 and above who can read and write.
- Infant Mortality-the number of deaths of infants under one year old per 1,000 births.
- Death Rate- The total number of deaths per 1,000 of a population in a year.
- Birth Rate- The total number of live births per 1,000 of a population in a year.
- Life Expectancy- The total number of years on average a person from a particular country is expected to live for.
Some of these development indicators contribute to calculating which stage of the
Demographic Transition Model (DTM) a particular country appears in.There are five stages to
the DTM.
