Abstract
The aim of this study was to propose a classification that allows evaluating the quality of the census data of centenaries elderly people, based on certain indicators for regional population groups in the world. This was an ecological study, consisting of secondary data from individuals aged 100 years or older, residing in 85 countries. Three indicators referring to the centenaries were constructed. The multivariate classification technique “cluster analysis” was applied to select groups of countries with similar characteristics and formulate ranges of values for each indicator. Finally, five scores were designated that determined the final classification. The results indicate that for the good quality of census data, the socioeconomic development factor is intrinsically related. Therefore, the use of demographic tools seems adequate to evaluating health information systems and this classification may favor the understanding of the true panorama in the distribution of long-lived elderly of the world.
