John Graunt (April 24, 1620--April 18, 1674) |
|
- Weekly Mortality statistics in London - designed to monitor burials from 1592 - 1595 and then continuously from 1603 |
Bills of mortality |
|
Who coined the term demography in 1855? |
Achille Guilard |
|
- the statistical study of HUMAN population - from the greek word which means people+ to write or draw |
DEMOGRAPHY |
|
2 kinds of Demography |
[1] Formal Demography (demography) [2] Social Demography (Population studies) |
|
____ is concerned with the precise mathematical and statistical measurements and recording of the three population process |
Formal Demography |
|
3 population processes |
[1] Mortality [2] Fertility [3] Migration |
|
Formal demography studies what determines population change and the consequences of such change, and is concerned with that which influences or can be influenced by the following : |
[1] POPULATION SIZE [2] POPULATION STRUCTURE [3] POPULATION GROWTH AND DECLINE [4] POPULATION DISTRIBUTION [5] POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS / COMPOSITION [6] POPULATION PROCESSES 6.1 MORTALITY 6.2 FERTILITY 6.3 MIGRATION |
|
The number of people in a given space Ex. World population=7.8 Billion Php population=109,581,078 |
POPULATION SIZE |
|
Region 3 and 4 are the peripheral regions of NCR |
Spill-over communities |
|
2 types of counting the Population |
- DE FACTO POPULATION - DE JURE POPULATION |
|
-Physical presence in a given territory at a given moment in time - All individuals in a given territory at a time are considered the population of that given territory (you will be counted where you are found at that moment) |
DE FACTO POPULATION |
|
You will be counted to where you are permanently residing (Type of counting population) |
DE JURE POPULATION |
|
Where you are currently staying (could be de facto or de jure) |
Place of Residence |
|
Where you are currently registered, where you pay your taxes |
Permanent Residence |
|
The distribution of males and females in each age. |
POPULATION STRUCTURE |
|
Also called "age-sex-structure/pyramid", is a graphical illustration that shows the distribution of various age groups in a population (typically that of a country or region of the world), which forms the shape of a pyramid when the population is growing. |
POPULATION PYRAMID |
|
How the number of people in a given place changes over time (the changes in population that happened to a given place from a given period (e.g. 2010) to another given period (e.g. 2020) |
POPULATION GROWTH AND DECLINE |
|
The rate at which the number of individuals in a population increases in a given time period |
Growth Rate |
|
Indicates that the population is increasing |
POSITIVE GROWTH RATE |
|
Indicate that the population is decreasing |
NEGATIVE GROWTH RATE |
|
- Indicates that there were the same number of individuals at the beginning and end of the period
- when there are significant changes in the birth rates, death rate, immigration rates, and age distribution between the two times |
ZERO GROWTH RATE |
|
- the population is increasing at a rapid rate - these, are young populations with ages 23 and below as the dominant population Ex. Philippines and India |
FAST GROWTH RATE |
|
- the population is increasing, but in a slow manner - these are old populations with low birth rates Ex. Germany and Japan |
SLOW GROWTH RATE |
|
- the pattern where people are located and why. |
POPULATION DISTRIBUTION |
|
Places that contain few people |
SPARSELY POPULATED |
|
Places that contain many people |
DENSELY POPULATED |
|
- a measurement of the number of people in an area, calculated by dividing the number of people by area.
- usually shown as the number of people per square kilometer |
POPULATION DENSITY |
|
Concerned with what people are like in a given place, in terms of variables such as education, income, occupation, family and household relationship, immigration and refugee status, among others, that add up to who we are as individual or groups of people |
POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS / COMPOSITION |
|
Age, sex, religion, civil status, ethnicity, race |
Example of Social Status |
|
Education, occupation, income |
Example of Economic Status |
|
The levels and trend in mortality fertility and migration that are determining population size and change, and which can be thought of as capturing life's 3 main moments: Hatching, Matching, and Dispatching |
POPULATION PROCESS |
|
is concerned with explaining a demographic phenomenon using other perspectives such as sociological, economic, or biological perspective. |
SOCIAL DEMOGRAPHY |
|
The objective of social demography is to |
Explain a demographics phenomenon using other data |
|
The objective of Formal Demography Is to |
Describe population process by measuring and to explain them using demographics data |
