本文采用残疾严重程度的替代措施，在越南的一个健康人口监测点检验了残疾与贫困之间的关系。对现场人口（约65400人）的分析与对27个有残疾成员的家庭的访谈相结合。结果表明，残疾严重程度与贫困呈正相关。调查结果支持越南政府最近为有严重残疾成员的家庭扩大社会保护方案的努力。但是，在资格和福利水平方面，需要有更高水平的残疾目标。版权所有# 2010约翰威利父子有限公司
This paper examines the relationship between disability and poverty at a health- demographic surveillance site in Viet Nam using alternative measures of disability severity. Analysis of the site population (n ¼65400) is combined with interviews of 27 households containing members with disabilities. Results show that disability severity is positively associated with poverty. Results support recent efforts of the Vietnamese government to extend programmes of social protection for households containing members with severe disabilities. However, a higher level of disability targeting is required, both in terms of eligibility and of benefit levels. Copyright # 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
