Abstract(s)

The relationship between the level of education and the adult survival rate with the human capital index and its components is studied using cluster analysis, applied to a sample of 174 countries covering all continents. The results allow the grouping of countries into three clusters that are consistent with three different levels of development. It was also observed that the lower the values of survival rate and level of education, the lower the human capital index of a country is.
