Abstract
Chickenpox is classified as a transmission disease, especially young ages from three months to 15 years old. This study clarifies the effect of the area, population, and the number of the health centers on the number of cases of chickenpox disease in the Rusafa district, Baghdad, Iraq. We use the Partial Linear Model (PLM) that divides the independent variables into two parts (parametric and non-parametric). Moreover, choosing the best model that represents data of the chickenpox disease, using criteria (R2, Bic, Aic) from six models. The results of the study show a positive relation between the number of cases and number of health centers.
