本文提出了一种调整人类发展指数的方法,以反映人类发展成就在人口和维度上的分布,使用阿特金森家族的不平等衡量标准。我们首先在一个理想化的环境中讨论拟议的指数,在这个环境中,变量及其规模已经确定,并且数据可用。然后,我们将解决在将这些方法应用于实际数据时出现的实际问题。最后一节介绍并评估了另一种相关的方法。
This paper proposes a method for adjusting the HDI to reflect the distribution of human development achievements across the population, and across dimensions, using an inequality measure from the Atkinson family. We begin with a discussion of the proposed indices in an idealized setting where variables and their scales have been identified and the data are available. We then address the practical issues that arise when applying these methods to real data. The final section presents and evaluates another related approach.
