Fortunately, MICS4mthe Multiple Indicator Cluster Survey conducted by UNICEF during 2012-2013 has introduced a module on accidents among children less than 15 years. In Algeria, the MICS4 survey targeted a sample of 28,000 households distributed over the national territory. These are the main results of polynomial logistic regression: Children in the richest quintile (B = .562, p 〈 .05), are much less exposed than children in the poorest quintile. The odd ratio is 1.75. Compared to children aged 12 to 14, the younger children of 0-2 years (B = -1.059, p 〈 .05), are three times less exposed (odd ratio = .347) to road traffic accidents; and children of 9-11 years (B = .520, p 〈 .05), are most exposed with an odd ratio of 1.68. For territorial planning areas, with the South being taken as a reference category, the risk of traffic accidents for a child is the lowest in the West Highlanders (B = -1.257, p 〈 .05), followed by the North Center (B = -1.163, p 〈 .05), the East Highlands (B = -1.053, p 〈 .05), the Northwest (B = -1.034, p 〈 .05), and the Northeast (B = -.805, p 〈 .05). Odd ratio values are respectively .29, .313, .349, .356, and .447.展开更多
