Children's Experience of Multidimensional Deprivation

Using longitudinal data set from Young Lives, this paper aims to measure multidimensional childhood deprivation in the state of Andhra Pradesh, India. In this paper we employ Alkire and Foster (2011) counting approach to estimate multidimensional childhood deprivation. We use household and child related data of 975 children in two different age points (12 and 15 year) and seek to establish the fact that childhood deprivation is not confined only to monetary poor households.

Reducing Attrition in Panel Studies in Developing Countries

Abstract: In panel studies, respondents are lost when they die, decide to drop out of the study, or when they cannot be traced during later rounds of data collection. Much has been written about attrition, the loss of individuals over time, in developed countries, but literature from developing countries is scarce. The experiences from developed countries may not be relevant for developing countries as the main reasons for attrition differ.
