Abstract
Four northern states of India - Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh - lag far behind the other states of the country regarding demographic transition and socio-economic development. The study described in this article shows the utilization of child immunization services in these states, utilizing data from the National Family Health Survey, India, 1992-3 (IIPS, 1995a, 1995b, 1995c) The study used multivariate logistic regression to correlate the utilization of child immunization. The results showed that children are more likely to receive immunization if their parents are a couple, with the father literate and the mother with at least a middle-school-education level who received antenatal care or delivered in an institutional environment.
