在发展中国家，对发展目标进展情况的评估越来越多地以家庭调查为依据。这些都不适合获取有关最贫穷者的信息。通常情况下，他们故意忽略：无家可归者;机构中的人;以及移动的、游牧或牧民人口。此外，在实践中，住户调查通常没有充分反映脆弱、脱节的住户、贫民窟人口和存在安全风险的地区。这六个分组构成了“穷人中的穷人”的很大一部分。我们估计，全世界有2.5亿人被这类调查的抽样框架和许多人口普查遗漏，遗漏这些数据很可能导致重大偏差。(C)2013爱思唯尔有限公司保留所有权利。
In developing countries, assessments of progress toward development goals are based increasingly on household surveys. These are inappropriate for obtaining information about the poorest. Typically, they omit by design: the homeless; those in institutions; and mobile, nomadic, or pastoralist populations. Moreover, in practice, household surveys typically under-represent: those in fragile, disjointed households; slum populations and areas posing security risks. Those six sub-groups constitute a large fraction of the "poorest of the poor". We estimate that 250 million are missed worldwide from the sampling frames of such surveys and from many censuses and their omission may well lead to substantial biases. (C) 2013 Elsevier Ltd.
