    This paper presents a study on the birth rate in Portugal. The quantitative data analysis of 308 municipalities concludes that the variables “live births of mothers residing in Portugal with Portuguese and foreign nationality”, “fertility rate of the various age groups”, “live births of mothers residing in Portugal according to their level of education” and “births by gender” are strongly correlated, presenting common factors that significantly influence the birth rate.

  • Depopulation of Portugal’s interior
    Publication . Suavinha, Bárbara; Alves, Maria; Magalhães, Marta; Babo, Lurdes; Torres, Cristina; Vieira, Isabel; Lopes, Isabel Cristina
    The depopulation of Portugal’s interior presents a crucial socio-demographic challenge, manifesting in widening disparities between major cities and inland regions. This study examines factors influencing depopulation in Portuguese municipalities, using data from PORDATA (2022). Through Linear Discriminant Analysis on twenty quantitative variables spanning education, demographics, health, and employment, municipalities are categorised by population density. The analysis reveals significant differences between groups across all variables, reinforcing the differentiation by population density. The model achieves a 71.2% correct classification rate, highlighting education and health variables as pivotal contributors to group discrimination.
