Abstract

This study discusses the effect of population on the economic growth of Jambi Province in 2016
2020. The population variable is the independent variable, and the economic growth variable is the
dependent variable. Residents have a role in various economic activities. Not only on the production
side, the population also affects the level of consumption of an item which can have an impact on
the economic growth of a region. To determine the effect of population on the economic growth of
Jambi Province in 2016-2020, a simple linear regression analysis tool was used with the application
of the t test with the aim of knowing whether the population variable had a partial or no effect on
the variable economic growth. After the data is processed and analyzed, it can be concluded that
based on the results of the t-test, the population variable has a partial (partial) influence on
economic growth. From the magnitude of the coefficient of determination, the Adjusted R Square
value is 0.657. This means that the population affects economic growth by 65.7%. While 24.3% is
influenced by other variables that are not discussed in this study.
