Résumé

Cette étude a utilisé l’analyse de clusters, qui est une technique exploratoire pour classer les individus dans des groupes semblables en fonction de l’ensemble des variables identifiées. L’objectif est d’identifier des profils de mères avec des caractéristiques similaires aux niveaux biomédical et sociodémographique et d’étudier la répartition de l’âge maternel par clusters. Cette étude est fondée sur les certificats de naissance dans deux régions belges et a inclus les grossesses uniques issues du mois de décembre 2014. L’analyse de correspondance multiple suivie d’une classification hiérarchique ascendante a été menée. Trois clusters ont été identifiés. Les caractéristiques biomédicales et sociodémographiques ainsi que la distribution de l’âge maternel diffèrent de manière significative entre les clusters.

Abstract

This study used clusters analysis, which is an exploratory technique to classify individuals into preferable groups based on sets of identifying variables. The objective was to identify mother’s profiles with similar characteristics from a biomedical and demographic point of view and to study the distribution of maternal age by clusters. This study was based on birth certificates in two Belgian regions including 3,600 singletons in December 2014. A multiple correspondence analysis followed by a bottom-up hierarchical classification was conducted. Three clusters have been identified; among the clusters, the sociodemographic and biomedical characteristics, and distribution of maternal age are significantly different.
