<![CDATA[West Nusa Tenggara (NTB) is one of the provinces in Indonesia with a percentage of poor people according to the March-September period in 2019, namely 14.56% -13.88%, while in 2020 it was 13.97% -14.23% and in 2021 the percentage was 14.14% -13.83%. The factors suspected of influencing poverty in each province have different conditions each year, so repeated observations are needed on poverty data and the factors that influence it. If the data contains multicollinearity, then one of the classic assumptions of multiple linear regression is not met so that the problem of multicollinearity needs to be addressed. The Principal Component Regression (PCR) method is the most consistent compared to the ridge and least square regression methods in solving multicollinearity problems. This study aims to analyze poverty in NTB using the PCR method. The data used in this study are the number of poor people and factors influencing poverty based on districts in NTB in 2020-2022. Based on the calculation results, it was obtained that Component 1 with an eigenvalue of 4.008 explained 57.2% of the variance, while Component 2 with an eigenvalue of 1.740 explained 82.1% of the variance. Both components significantly affect poverty according to the results of simultaneous and partial tests. This model has an R^2 value of 0.302 or 30.2% and the remaining 69.8% is influenced by external factors (error). The R^2 value is classified as a weak category and it is recommended to add other factors that affect poverty including access to electricity, access to sanitation, access to clean drinking water, and government spending.]]>
