Resumen
Para contar con buenas estimaciones de población para áreas administrativas menores en los períodos poscensales, se planteó la posibilidad de utilizar variables auxiliares como una alternativa simple para producir estimaciones indirectas. A estas variables se les ha denominado “indicadores sintomáticos” del cambio poblacional. La eficacia de estos indicadores se evaluó basándose en la información del censo de población y vivienda del año 2000. Se analiza la consistencia de las estimaciones producidas por cantones con respecto al valor censal. Además, se discute la coherencia de estos resultados con los del censo de 1984. Los resultados mostraron que la combinación de los indicadores: padrón electoral, nacimientos y matrícula escolar, pueden generar estimaciones acertadas aun en momentos de fuerte inmigración internacional.
Since the need of having good population estimates to lower administrative areas in the post census periods, it has been proposed the possibility if using auxiliary variables as simple alternative to produce indirect estimates. These variables have been called “Symptomatic indicators” of population change. This article researches about them using information got from the last population and housing census of 2000. It is analyzed the contingence of the produced estimates to cantonal level according to the census value. On the other hand it is discussed the coherence of these results with the ones got in a previous study that was done to census of 1984. The results showed that the combination of the indicators: electoral census, births, primary school registration, can bring right estimates even though there is a strong international immigration. There were used four methods that showed to be a good alternative to get these population estimates.
