摘要：

This study investigates the effects of GDP per capita on infant mortality using panel data from 83 developing countries over a period of 40 years. Although economic growth broadly decreases infant mortality, the impact of economic growth on infant mortality for the periods of economic booms and slumps is asymmetrical. Positive economic growth may have weak, mixed effects on a reduction in infant mortality, but negative economic growth has a strong, adverse impact.
