Resilience measurement for environmental shocks and stressors: scale development and psychometric assessment for coastal urban informal settlements in Fiji and Indonesia [PDF]
Background Climate change and weather-related hazards, such as droughts and floods, pose substantial threats to the human health and well-being, especially for those in low-income households and informal settlements. Resilience, defined as the ability to

Basic Needs (in)Security and Subjective Equivalence Scales
Equivalence scales are policy parameters for inequality measurement, tax deductions and subsidies. Thus, their accuracy is relevant both for budgets and social cohesion; however, their measurement is subject to debate regarding the underlying measure of ...

Equivalence scales for continuous distributions of expenditure
Research background: In the actual sizable populations of households, the standard microeconomic concept of equivalence scales is intractable since its necessary condition of equality of household welfare levels is unlikely to be fulfilled.

Measurement Equivalence in Sequential Mixed-Mode Surveys
Many surveys collect data using a mixture of modes administered in sequential order. Although the impacts of mixed-mode designs on measurement quality have been extensively studied, their impacts on the measurement quality of unobservable (or latent ...

Modelling Required Energy Consumption with Equivalence Scales
Due to difficulties in accessing detailed energy modelling and usage data that are required to estimate energy needs that are responsive to local circumstances, we propose an equivalence scale approach to the determination of required energy consumption.
