2010年6月,欧洲联盟(欧盟)国家元首和政府首脑通过了一项社会包容目标,作为新的"欧洲2020战略“的一部分:到2020年使欧盟至少2 000万人摆脱贫困和被排斥的风险。用于监测这一目标进展情况的三个指标之一是欧盟的严重物质匮乏指标。这一指标的一个主要局限是其所依据的某些项目的可靠性较弱,因此,在2009年欧盟收入和生活条件统计调查中纳入了一个关于MD的专题模块。本文评估了2009年欧盟-SILC MD数据,并提出了一个分析框架,以制定强大的欧盟MD指标。它在欧盟和国家一级进行了系统的逐项分析,以确定令人满意地满足整个欧盟的适用性,有效性,可靠性和可加性标准的MD项目。这一办法导致了拟议的13项MD指标,涵盖了整个欧盟习惯的生活条件的一些关键方面,涵盖了广泛的基本生活条件(食物、衣服、鞋子等)。以及社交(互联网,定期休闲活动等)必需品。
In June 2010, European Union (EU) Heads of State and Government adopted a social inclusion target as part of the new Europe 2020 Strategy': to lift at least 20 million people in the EU from the risk of poverty and exclusion by 2020. One of the three indicators used to monitor progress towards this target is the EU indicator of severe material deprivation (MD). A main limitation of this indicator is the weak reliability of some of the items it is based on. For this reason, a thematic module on MD was included in the 2009 wave of the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) survey. This article assesses the 2009 EU-SILC MD data and proposes an analytical framework for developing robust EU MD indicators. It carries out a systematic item by item analysis at both EU and country levels to identify the MD items which satisfactorily meet suitability, validity, reliability and additivity criteria across the EU. This approach has resulted in a proposed 13-item MD indicator covering some key aspects of living conditions which are customary across the whole EU covering a broad range of basic (food, clothes, shoes, etc.) as well as social (Internet, regular leisure activities, etc.) necessities.
