- Abstract
This work aims to determine a linear relationship between the Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) and a set of socioeconomic variables observed by federative units in the period from 2005 to 2010 using the fixed and random effects panel data model. Methodology: this is a descriptive study with a quantitative approach, using the Mortality Information System (SIM) and the Live Birth Information System (SINASC) and then using the R software to perform this data analysis with the plm function. Results: studies show that the most appropriate model is the fixed effect model with logarithmic transformation in the independent variables and the dependent variable, which were as follows: IMR, illiteracy rate, GDP per capita, proportion of people with low income, percentage of the population served by water supply network and the proportion of the population served by garbage collection. Conclusion: The independent variables that have a significant impact on IMR are the illiteracy rate, GDP per capita and the proportion of people with low income.
