From: Error and bias in under-5 mortality estimates derived from birth histories with small sample sizes

Figure 2

Example birth history estimates derived from samples of the Zambia 2007 survey. Each panel shows the ‘true’ under-5 mortality in Zambia (black line) and the under-5 mortality estimates from five samples from this survey. Each column corresponds to a different birth history method, while the rows correspond to the size of the sample (10, 100, and 1000 women). SBH = summary birth history; CBH = complete birth history; MW = moving window; F = flat weights; T = triangle weights; number in brackets gives period or window length.
