Age standardised mortality rate

The video tutorial by Greg Martin explains mortality rates, focusing on crude mortality rates and the impact of age structure on these rates. It introduces indirect and direct age standardization methods to adjust for age differences in populations, using examples from Ireland and comparisons between single and married men. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of considering age as a confounding factor when comparing mortality rates across different populations.
