“…While modern medical records of deceased children could very well represent individuals of any socioeconomic status (SES), it has been argued that a deceased child is more likely to have low SES (Spake & Cardoso, 2018), as mortality rates are closely and inversely linked to SES level (Bairagi & Chowdhury, 1994; Braudt et al, 2019; Kim & Saada, 2013; Spencer, 2004). The higher mortality rates and biological effects of low SES can be linked to numerous factors, such as parental education level, level of access to medical care, family income‐to‐needs ratio, and living quality (housing), among others.…”

“…The higher mortality rates and biological effects of low SES can be linked to numerous factors, such as parental education level, level of access to medical care, family income‐to‐needs ratio, and living quality (housing), among others. Within the deceased sample, it has been suggested that children with different MODs may represent different sectors of the population and will, therefore, also exhibit different developmental trajectories (Spake & Cardoso, 2018). Yet research comparing stature between individuals with a MOD of homicide and accident in three different countries found no consistent differences.…”

“…Spake and Cardoso [61] examined differences in age estimation using bone size between average children and victims of homicide. This study suggested that growth variation related to socioeconomic status impacted age estimation and revealed differences between data from the United States and Australia/New Zealand.…”
