Using an inventory of 1,212 buildings from eight villages in Portugal’s Montesinho Natural Park, the research evaluates the relationship between 23 architectural typologies and local settlements. Traditional Chi-square tests proved unreliable due to low expected frequencies, prompting the adoption of Standardised Residuals based on the Normal Distribution N(0,1). The method identifies statistically significant typological dependencies and local architectural identities while remaining accessible through standard spreadsheet software. Results demonstrate that rare typologies often provide stronger indicators of territorial identity than the most frequent building types. eng info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess Vernacular architecture Cultural heritage Standardised residuals Sparse data analysis Arquitectura vernácula Patrimonio cultural Residuos tipificados Análisis de datos dispersos Montesinho Natural Park Parque Natural de Montesinho Statistical analysis of the dependence between typologies of vernacular dwellings and the localities of the Montesinho natural park info:eu-repo/semantics/bookPart
