A chemical amplification type positive resist composition comprising a novolak resin, a resin insoluble or poorly soluble itself in an alkali aqueous solution but becoming soluble in an alkali aqueous solution by the action of an acid, and an acid generator, wherein when the novolak resin is measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) using a 254 nm UV detector using polystyrene as a standard, the area ratio of components having molecular weights of 1000 or less is 25% or less based on the total pattern area excepting unreacted monomers; and the chemical amplification type positive resist composition can reduce cost without deteriorating basic abilities such as sensitivity, resolution and the like, and shows small unevenness due to standing wave, and can improved pattern profile, particularly, line edge roughness.
