The role of social transfers in reducing the poverty risk for larger families in the European Union
Child poverty is impacted to a great extent by family demography, with large families and single parents having a greater risk of being poor. Using the EU‐SILC microdata, we examine the extent to which social transfers reduce the risk of poverty among large families compared with smaller families in 29 European countries. Large families are defined as families with three or more children. First, we look at the reduction of poverty rates before an…
Different Methods, Different Standards? A Comparison of Two Finnish Reference Budgets
According to Principle 14 of the European Pillar of Social Rights, everyone should have the right to adequate minimum income benefits that ensure a life in dignity. Reference budgets have been proposed to monitor this principle. Reference budgets are priced baskets of goods and services that represent a given living standard. At the moment, no common methodology for constructing reference budgets exists; instead, different methods are used to con…
Age Differences in Material Deprivation in Finland: How do Consensus and Prevalence-Based Weighting Approaches Change the Picture
While material deprivation is often used to measure poverty, analyses focusing on the measurement of material deprivation are scarce. This study provides new information on material deprivation by analyzing how differences in the considerations of necessities and possession of deprivation items among all respondents and within population subgroups affect group-level differences in material deprivation in Finland. In line with many previous studie…
Consensus or dissensus? Analysing people's perceptions of the necessities of life in Finland
The aim of this study is to analyse whether or not people are in consensus on what the necessities of life are in Finland. Consensus is analysed through two criteria: a public oriented view on the necessities and agreement between individuals. The study utilises a Finnish postal survey from 2015 where people were asked about the necessity of 23 items. The results suggest that individual views are shaped by personal circumstances and a fully publi…
Changing architecture of growing cranial bones at sutures as revealed by vital staining with alizarin red S in the rabbit
Changing patterns of bone trabeculae were observed at the interparietal, interfrontal, fronto‐parietal, temporo‐zygomatic, and mid‐palatal sutures of vitally stained (alizarin red S) rabbit skulls of 3 to 33 weeks of age. The changes appeared to represent changes in direction and velocity of bone growth at these sites. The method may offer a new approach to the study of skull growth, complementary to the traditional split‐line and vital staining …
