Conteúdo: | In this study we develop a methodology to construct an index of relative development (IRD) applied to rank the less developed countries ((LDC). In order to do this, we use eight variables: life expectancy at birth; percentage of the population with access to safe water; percentage of the population with access to sanitation ; daily calorie supply as a percentage of the minimum requirements; adult literacy rate; real GDP per capita; and the rate of infanty mortality. We use factor analysis method to abatain the factor scores, and then we create the IRD, based on the orthogonality property associated with the estimated factor scores.
