Abstract

Although literacy rates have improved somehow in recent years, there are still large numbers of people that are illiterates in developing countries. This paper examines the impact of severe economic decline and demographic pressures on youth literacy rate in Sub-Saharan Africa. In this study, a cross-sectional data of 39 Sub-Saharan African countries with adequate data information were analyzed. The results from the ANOVA tests indicate that economic decline is statistically significant in explaining youth literacy, while the results from demographic pressures and movement of refugees are inconclusive in explaining youth literacy.

撒哈拉以南非洲严重的经济衰退和人口压力对青年识字率的影响

尽管近年来识字率有所提高，但在发展中国家仍有大量的人是文盲。本文考察了撒哈拉以南非洲地区严重的经济衰退和人口压力对青年识字率的影响。在这项研究中，对39个撒哈拉以南非洲国家的截面数据进行了分析，并提供了充分的数据信息。方差分析的结果表明，经济衰退在解释青年识字率方面具有统计意义，而人口压力和难民流动的结果在解释青年识字率方面则不具有决定性。

期刊介绍： Logique et Analyse is the continuation of Bulletin Intérieur, which was published from 1954 on by the Belgian National Centre for Logical Investigation, and intended originally only as an internal publication of results for its members and collaborators. Since the start of the new series, in 1958, however, the journal has been open to external submissions (and subscriptions). Logique et Analyse itself subscribes to no particular logical or philosophical doctrine, and so is open to articles from all points of view, provided only that they concern the designated subject matter of the journal.
