Abstract
Mosley and Chen theory combined with Hagul’s model of women’s status, are the basis for this study. The data used is from the Indonesian Demographic and Health Survey conducted in 2007. Variables of women’s status were combined based on a scale to build a variable called ‘women’s status’. Results showed that 72.6 percent of women hold high status and 96.0 percent of under-five children survived until the interview period. Life Table presents the probability of children to survive until 60 months was estimated at 0.90. Regression results level of education and participation in decision-making had the highest odds ratio of survival on women’s status variables, though women’s employment status was not significant. Univariate and multivariate demonstrated that women’s status was significantly associated with under-five survival when other proximate determinants were included in the model. The odds of survival increased for women with high status.
