7533617588you measure population change throughCrude Birth Rate, the Crude Death Rate, and the Natural Increase Rate0
7533649280Crude Birth Rate (CBR)total number of live births a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society.1
7533654667Crude Death Rate (CDR)total number of deaths a year for every 1,000 people alive in the society.2
7533664064Natural Increase Rate (NIR)the percentage by which a population grows in a year. NIR = (Crude birth rate − Crude death rate) / 103
7533674708Total Fertility Rate(TFR)the average number of children a woman will have during her childbearing years.4
7533682406Infant Mortality Rate (IMR)the annual number of deaths of infants under 1 year compared with total live births.5
7533689429Life Expectancyaverage number of years a newborn can expect to live at current morbidity levels.6
7533697541doubling rate (time)the amount of time it takes to double a population7
7533705502population pyramidgraphical illustration that shows the distribution of various age groups as well as the sex ratio, the number of males per hundred females.8
7533728016age-sex composition graph aka Pop PyrBased solely on age and sex data Provides information on birth rates, death rates, average life span, and economic development Reflects natural disasters, wars, political changes, and epidemics9
7533735766cohortsvertical axis that shows age groups, usually in the middle10
7533748697horizontal axispercentages or absolute numbers11
7533764513population pyramid set upmales on the left, females on the right12
7533774422Dependency Ratiouses population pyramid, a value comparing the working to the nonworking parts of a population.13
7533790241dependent population15-64 is workforce. potential workforce by dependent population results in the dependency ratio14
7533808172Dependency ratios of regionsUS, Europe,Japan, Australia support themselves and .52 people. Nigeria, South America, Asia support themselves and 1.08 people15
7533824489impact of wardeath (civilians) affect people of all ages. lose fighting age men 18-40. Birth deficit slowdown of births.16
7533853152baby boomOnce hostilities end and peace continues, the birth rate often spikes. WW2 1946-196517
7533862623baby bustfollow baby booms, continues until the boomers reach child-bearing age18
7533874343echoa bulge in the pyramid19
7596263751demographic balancing equationnatural increase, but migration plays a big part in it. Total Population Change = Births - Deaths + Immigrants - Emigrants20
7596276997Thomas Malthuspolitical economy and demography. says population (exponent) will eventually outpace food production (arithemic/linear)21
7596288599population doubling timesince early 1800's population has grown exponentially. Use rule of 70- with steady population the approximate doubling time in years will be 70 divided by the growth rate per year22
7596310573arithmetic growthconstant increasing number per year/linear. (food)23
7596322134exponential growthconstant doubling (population)24
7596335562Neo Malthusiansfood production increased more quickly than he predicted. people who have adopted his ideas and argue that population is a serious issue lead to depletion of resources25
7596365973Ester Boserupopposite of Malthus. Said he did not take technology into account. Model of agricultural development and says famine has not happened26
7596384335Epidemiological Transition Model (ETM)correspond with the DTM. Abdel Omran identified predictable stages in disease and life expectancy that countries experience as they develop27
7596395209ETM Stage 1stage of pestilence and famine. ex black death28
7596395210ETM Stage 2stage of receding pandemics ex cholera29
7596397481ETM Stage 3The stage of degenerative and human-created diseases ex cancer30
7596397482ETM Stage 4stage of delayed degenerative diseases. ex cancer and disease is slowed down with medicine. longer life expectancies31
7596397483ETM Stage 5Reemergence of infectious and parasitic diseases. ex evolution poverty globalization32
7596431012anti-natalist policiesgovernment programs to decrease the number of births so overpopulation does not happen. ex China 1970s later longer fewer then one child policy33
7596458870pro-natalist policiesgovernment programs to encourage births for economy and military. ex France Sweden and Japan free child care, abortion restrictions34
7596486579Why are birth rates decreasing?education, government policy, women's rights, contraceptive uses35
7623083239ecumeneportion of earth with permanent human settlement (most of area)36
7623116188Arithmetic DensityTotal number of people divided by total land. Enables comparisons of the # of people trying to live on a given piece of land in different regions of the world.37
7623118130Physiological DensityNumber of people supported by a unit area of arable land38
7623123405Agricultural DensityRatio of the number of farmers to the amount of arable land. Helps to account for economic differences39
7623132424J CurvePopulation projection show exponential growth. If the population grows exponential our resource use will go up exponential and so will our use as well as a greater demand for food and more.40
7623136471S CurveTraces the cyclical movement updates and downwards in a graph.41
7623153405Stage 1high birth and high death rates. no long term natural increase42
7623158407stage 2high birth rates, rapid decline in death rates. high natural increase43
7623160485stage 3rapid decline in birth rates, decline in death rates, natural increase begins to moderate44
7623160486stage 4very low birth and death rate no long term natural increase/ possible decrease45
7623228170population patternAreas of high and low population density are unevenly spread across the world. The majority of places with high population density are found in the northern hemisphere.46
7623258951developing population pyramidtriangular shape. low life expectancy. steady % of each group dying. High birth rates47
7623274305developed population pyramidmore of a block base and no decrease in age groups till 60's. better medical care48
7623272139middle income population pyramidtakes part in both of these. block through 30-35. steady decrease with every group after49
7623319015other Malthus criticstoo pessimistic Theory was based on idea that world's supply of resources is fixed rather than expanding. Disagree that population increase is not a problem Larger populations could stimulate economic growth, and therefore, production of more food.50
7623332901Expansive population policies. EuropeEncourages population growth. Sweden and Norway have many policies. Poland pays women for each new child they have51
7623335723Eugenics population policiesFavors one racial or cultural sector over others. Nazi Europe WW252
7623337656Restrictive population policiesRange from toleration of unapproved birth control to outright prohibition of large families. China one child policy urban couples. India population and family planning sterilization53
7623383175Infectious diseasesinvasion of parasites and their multiplication in the body. Malaria (vectored) - transmitted by an intermediary vector (mosquito) AIDS (nonvectored) - direct contact between host & victim54
7623390246Chronic/Degenerative DiseasesAfflictions of middle and old age - heart disease, cancer, stroke, pneumonia, diabetes, etc.55
7623393532Genetic/Inherited DiseasesDisorders that are transferred from one generation to the next. Metabolic diseases - Lactose intolerance, PKU (Phenylketonuria)56
7657011099cyclictype of movement starts and ends at home. Create activity spaces (spaces of daily routines)57
