As a result the analysis from the variation explained and notexplained of the ICI is raised. From the study developed we can conclude: a) Only the19,3% of the variation in the ICI it is explained by the variation of the IVPSCAC; itindicates that the 80,7% of their variation are explained in factors different from thevariation of the IVPSCAC. b) Among them a correlation of the 0,439 appears, which isconsidered as moderate and it affirms, with a level of confidence of 90%, it is reallysignificant. c) This correlation could be the sample of part of the IVPSCAC informationis considered within the construction of the ICI.
