Crime and birth rate in Ukraine: modelling and statistical analysis by O. F. Shevchuk

“…The combined two-period birth rate model built as a result of the correlation and regression analysis proved to be adequate, with a fairly high interpolation accuracy (R = 0.865; MAPE = 5.38 %). In addition, for the first period (1992–2018), an overall decrease in the crime rate by 1 % was accompanied by an increase in the birth rate by 0.71 % with a time shift of two years. …”
