Resumen:
We study the correlation between the fraction of barred spiral galaxies and environmental parameters of galaxies to understand in which environments the bars are more commonly found. For this purpose, we apply the Blanton et al. technique to a sample of spiral galaxies drawn from the Nair & Abraham catalogue. Our results agree with previous findings in which the fraction of barred galaxies is almost insensitive to environment.
