We develop a poverty decomposition method that is based on a consumption regression model. Because this method uses an … integral of the partial derivatives of a poverty measure with respect to time, the resulting poverty decomposition satisfies … time-reversion consistency and sub-period additivity. Unlike the existing poverty decomposition methods, it allows us to …

Multidimensional poverty measures give rise to a host of statistical hypotheses which are of interest to applied … minimum P-value methodology of Bennett (2010). When applied to study the relative state of poverty among Hindus and Muslims in …

We investigate the accuracy of ex ante assessments of vulnerability to income poverty using cross-sectional data and … vulnerability predictions is limited even when panel data are used. In part this low accuracy is due to low poverty incidence and … high mobility in and out of poverty. …

Previous research has found that subjective well-being (SWB) is lower for individuals classified as being in poverty … with the state-level poverty ratio while controlling for individual poverty status and poverty intensity. The negative … relationship between aggregate poverty and SWB is more salient in the upper segments of the income distribution and is robust to …

We consider the link between poverty and subjective well-being, and focus in particular on the role of time. We use … satisfaction falls with both the incidence and intensity of contemporaneous poverty.
