Domain-specific¶
- Multidimensional Poverty Index
- where \(H\) is the proportion of the population identified as multidimensionally poor and \(A\) is the average weighted share of indicators in which poor people are deprived
This sourceDefines the adjusted headcount ratio as M0 = H × A, with H the proportion identified as multidimensionally poor and A the average weighted deprivation share among them — the identity and both of its terms. Defines the whole Mα family — M1 = HAG adding depth and M2 = HAS adding severity — and states the line that separates them from M0: only the adjusted headcount ratio can be used with purely ordinal data, the α > 0 members requiring cardinal shortfalls. Establishes subgroup decomposability for the adjusted-headcount family: measured under the same cutoffs, the overall value is the population-share-weighted sum of the subgroup values.
