OBJECTIVE To study the trends of socioeconomic inequalities and socioeconomic inequalities in self-perceived health in Spain between 1987 and 2001. METHODS We estimated the distribution of educational level and per capita provincial income, and the differences in less-than-good self-perceived health by educational level and per capita provincial income in each period. RESULTS The percentage...

Methods: We estimated the distribution of educational level and per capita provincial income, and the differences in lessthan-good self-perceived health by educational level and per capita provincial income in each period.

This paper considers the relationship between government growth and real GDP per capita by developing models of federal legislative output in Australia since 1901. Growth in legislation is found to be negatively related to growth in real income per capita in the short-run, implying that legislation responds to temporary economic shocks, but without a robust long-run relationship with the level ...

This paper finds robust evidence that age structure matters for subsequent growth in per capita income across the US states 1920-1990. The age groups 25-65 year are positively related to subsequent per capita income growth. Another conclusion is that the average years of schooling affects subsequent per capita income growth positively when age structure is controlled for. Moreover, the estimate...

Multi-dimensional poverty index is an international measure of acute poverty covering over 104 countries. As everyone knows that Poverty is measured as a single dimensional index such as income. But income alone misses a lot because India is growing fast in economic perspective but health, education and living standard not improved yet. It is the fact that India’s per capita income lies in one ...

An inverted-U relationship between GDP per capita and three urban transport-related emissions is tested (using data from 84 cities). Per capita urban transport-related emissions of CO, VHC, and NOx increase and then decline at observed income levels—a result driven by a similar inverted-U relationship between income and emissions technology (i.e., emissions per passengerkm). However, for urban ...

We study the effect of technological knowledge on per-capita income and population in a Malthusian economy. Airy differential equations describe the evolution of knowledge. Consequently, the impact of technological knowledge on aggregate output is feeble before and strong after the Industrial Revolution. The economy exposed to Airy growth of knowledge evolves from a Malthusian regime into a Pos...
