Between 1901 and 1981, the total mortality rate in developed countries showed a dramatic decline. Which one of the following factors accounted for the greatest proportion of the decrease in mortality during this time? 1) improvement in the geographic distribution of health care professionals 2) increase in the number of health care professionals 3) development of antibiotics 4) improvements in general living standards 5) improvements in diagnostic techniques

3. , developing of antibiotics, I don´t think that people in Africa(most of third world) rapidly increased general living standards. The big factor of decreasing mortality was prevent the mortality of new born child(what was one of the biggest problems), than using antibiotics to threat variola.... I think antibiotics

Global (devloped + devloping) decline is for Antibiotic (especially PCN after WW2), but the question is asking about devloped country; it should be living condition.

4- I have no evidence but 4 is reasonable. In addition, Do remmember that after World War II, the Baby Boomer generation, especially in the Sates and Western countries, made mortality "pseudo-decrease" and a plus for sure is improvements in general living standards as well.
