Most equivalence scales which are applied in research on poverty and inequality do not depend on income, although there … differing assessments of poverty and inequality under quite general conditions. German microdata will be used to demonstrate and …

Although a wide array of stochastic dominance tests exist for poverty measurement and identification, they assume the … income distributions have independent poverty lines or a common absolute (fixed) poverty line. We propose a stochastic … dominance test for comparing income distributions up to a common relative poverty line (i.e., some fraction of the pooled median …

The present work estimates poverty and inequality indices in various groups that are known to have high contributions … to poverty and inequality, such as farmers, pensioners and families with 3 or more children. Using the bootstrap … technique, we estimate confidence intervals for these indices and examine if the decrease of poverty and inequality during the …
