Abstract
This study is conducted with the main objective of knowing the factors that can affect the life expectancy of people living in the different regions of the world who are members of the World Health Organization and knowing these factors, the researchers were able to generate hypotheses which led to the formulation of propositions and development of a theory which can provide tentative explanation of such a phenomenon. The findings revealed that life expectancy is affected by national gross income, fertility rate, probability of dying, climate, and mortality rate of different causes like non-communicable diseases, cardio-vascular diseases, cancer and injuries. The quantitative tools being used is the multivariate statistics specifically cluster analysis and dendogram. Finally, the researchers developed a theory that “life expectancy of a nation’s citizenry is influenced by complex factors like economic stability and climate changes. People living in warm and poor countries die early while people living in rich and highly temperate countries live longer”.
