1 ReSDA Workshop No 1 Resources and Sustainable Development in the Arctic Yellowknife NWT, September Analyzing indicators for small northern places Larry Hamilton Department of Sociology University of New Hampshire Larry.Hamilton@UNH.edu

2 Indicators for what? Detection. Did something change? By how much, and in what direction? When did this happen? Who did it affect? Attribution. Why did the change occur? Is there evidence to rule out some alternative explanations, or test hypotheses about a particular cause?

3 Analytically rich data Time series of key indicators collected by governments, health or education agencies, preferably at the level of individual communities. E.g., village population and net migration. Surveys for example of opinion, behavior, quality of life topics, conducted with representative samples at several times.

4 Infant mortality rates vs. teenage birth rates, averaged over for 27 Alaska boroughs (r =.7) Infant mortality/1000 live births Yukon-K Wales-Ketchikan Lake & Pen Nome Wade Hampton NW Arctic Bethel North Slope Dillingham Births/1000 females 15-19

5 Infant mortality for NW Alaska compared with all Alaska. Statistical uncertainty is high for smaller populations. Infant mortality rate NW Arctic all Alaska Year

10 Community and Environment in Rural America (CERA) surveys by Carsey Institute, UNH Random-sample telephone surveys in rural areas of the US. About 100 questions concerning local community, environment, and individual characteristics. Core CERA questions + specific local issues More than 10,000 interviews conducted in selected rural areas In , a new round of CERA surveys included 1,500 in Southeast Alaska.

11 Use or conserve resources? For the future of your community, do you think it is more important to use natural resources to create jobs, or to conserve natural resources for future generations or don t you have an opinion on this? 1 Use natural resources to create jobs 2 Conserve natural resources for the future 3 Creating jobs and conserving resources are both equally important 98 Don't know 99 No answer / Refused
