Demography Flashcards
Scientific or statistical study of human population.
Demography
This means group of individuals of same species living the in the same geographic area at the same time.
Population
[Aspect of Human Populations]
Number of people in the same geographical area at a given time.
Size
[Aspect of Human Populations]
Way of dispersion of the people in the same geographical area at a given time.
Distribution
[Aspect of Human Populations]
The number of people in age, sex, and other demographic categories.
Composition
[Aspect of Human Populations]
Study of change of population in size and structure.
Population Dynamics
Example of vital events.
birth rate and death rate
Defined as an enumeration or complete population count at a point in time within a specific.
Census
Census is the entire process of?
collecting, compiling, and evaluating, and analyzing and publishing then disseminate data to other people.
Census is made by?
Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA)
This technique of Census is the counting of people according to the permanent place of location or residence. Gives realistic statistics (Permanent address).
Dejure
This technique of conducting census refers to counting of persons where they are present at the time of the census period (Current Address).
De Facto
Refers to the civil registration system, which records births, deaths, marriages etc. (vital statistics) enable the rate of population growth to be calculated.
REGISTRATION OF VITAL EVENTS
Carried out in a scientific selected area which covers only a section or portion (sample) of the population under consideration.
SAMPLE SURVEYS
Mid decennial Census (10 years); August to september 2015 ginawa
POPCEN
May 1 2020 at exactly 12:0am; compiling of statistics whos above of administrative region in the Philippines.
CPH 2020
Quotient of 2 demographic quantities. It quantifies the magnitude of 1 occurrence or condition to another.
Ratio
a/b or a:b
Numerator always part of the denominator. Express in percent (always). A type of ratio which indicates the relation in magnitude of part of the whole.
Proportion
Only demographic measurement tools who has specification of time. Measure the occurrence of the same population of some particular event in a population during a given time period.
Rate
4 elements of rate
Numerator, denominator, multipier (constant), and time
This is the constant (1000 or 100), varies how many populations happen. Example: Birth and Date Rate (1000x) and HIV rates (100x) and specific injury (10x)
Multiplier
COMPOSITION OF POPULATION
Age
Sex
Race
Year of Birth
Place of Birth
Educational level
Occupation
Religion
Language
Marital Status
Example of Ratio
no. deaths in one year/midyear population x 1000
Distribution by age of the population. Also known as age structure or age distribution.
Age Composition
What are the different age groups?
Young - 0 to 14
Adults - 15 to 64
Old - 65+
Age group 15-64 is considered economically active. Income Generating Population.
Active Population
Inactive population. 0 to 14 and 65 years above.
Dependent Population
Ratio that compares the number of economically unproductive to people economically productive.
Influence by AGE regardless of capability.
Dependency Ratio
What is the difference between dependency ratio and labor force ratio?
Dependency Ratio - based sa age
Labor Force Ratio - If still working regardless of age
Types of dependency ratios
Total Dependency Ratio
Child/Youth Dependency Ratio
Aged Dependency Ratio
The age that divides a population into two numerically equal groups - that is, half the people are younger than this age and half are older
Median Age (can have decimal)
What is the life expectancy of humans today?
60 years old
The proportion of males to females in a given population, usually expressed as the number of males per 100 females at a specific stage in life.
Sex Composition
Formula of sex composition
male/female x 100
Type of sex composition which is the ratio of fertilization. Unborn offspring in the population. Rate at the time of just conception.
Primary
Type of sex composition which is Ratio at Time of birth.
Secondary
Type of sex composition which is Ratio at Sexual adulthood.
Tertiary
Female is always?
100
Above 100 vs Below 100
Above 100 - excess of males
Below 100 - excess of females
Graph shows the number of male and female in different age group.
Population Pyramid
In population pyramid, Pag triangle mas marami ang?
bata kesa sa matanda
[Population Pyramid]
- Pababa
- Represents age group at a regular interval of 5 years
Vertical Axis (y-axis)
[Population Pyramid]
Represents total population
Horizontal Axis (x-axis)
Types of ages
Pre Reproductive age - 0 to 14
Reproductive age - 15 to 44
Post reproductive age - 45 and above
[Population Pyramid type]
- Triangular shape
- Wide base tapering toward the top High fertility rate
Expanding Population
[Population Pyramid type]
- Urn Shaped
- Has narrow base and tapered toward the top
- Decreasing fertility rate but increasing life expectancy
Declining Population
[Population Pyramid type]
- Rectangular shape
- Decrease life expectancy
- Increasing Birth rate
- Fast growing country
- Birth and Death rate is equal
Constant Population
[FACTORS AFFECTING POPULATION SIZE AND AGE]
An expression of the number of births per 1,000 women of childbearing age (15 - 44) in the population during a specific time period.
Fertility Rate
[FACTORS AFFECTING POPULATION SIZE AND AGE]
Expressed in deaths per 100,000 population that has an impact on the aging population.
Mortality Rate/Death Rate
[FACTORS AFFECTING POPULATION SIZE AND AGE]
The productive and nonproductive populations have been defined by age.
Dependence and Labor-Force Ratios
Difference in necessity
- Greater aged population: maintenance, social services
- Youth
Number of species correlated with the location.
Population Density (Round Up)
Number of people Correlation with time.
Population growth rate
- No migration for global population
- Change in the number of individual over a specific period
Population Growth Rate (Round down)
Attributed factors of Population Growth Rate
Birth Rate
Death Rate
Migration
When is population growth rate usually calculated? (types)
Annually - every year
Bi-anual - every 2 years
5 yearly - every 5 years
Positive and negative effect of population growth rate.
Population Growth (positive)
Population Decline (negative)
