Abstract

This paper analyses the determinants of consumption decision and household expenditure on cultural goods in Togo, based on survey data from the 2015 QUIBB Basic Well‐being Indicators. The determinants of consumption decision are empirically estimated from a probit model while the determinants of consumption expenditure on cultural goods are estimated from a Tobit model and the CLAD (Censored Lead Absolute Deviation) method. The results show that the decision to consume cultural goods is positively affected by the higher level of education and the place of residence but negatively affected by the size of the household. Likewise, households' consumption expenditure is significantly influenced by income, education level, place of residence, household size, and religion. However, estimation by the CLAD method shows that the magnitude of the effect of these factors differs from one quantile to another. Furthermore, our results highlight a U‐shaped relationship between cultural spending and income. Taking these factors into account can help revive the cultural sector in Togo. Ce papier analyse les déterminants de la décision de consommation et des dépenses en biens culturels des ménages au Togo en se basant sur les données d'enquête sur les Indicateurs de Bien être de Base QUIBB (2015). Les déterminants de la décision de consommation sont estimés empiriquement à partir d'un modèle probit tandis que les déterminants des dépenses de consommation de ces biens sont estimés à partir d'un modèle Tobit et la méthode CLAD (Censored Lead Absolute Deviation). Les résultats montrent que la décision de consommation des biens culturels est affectée positivement par le niveau d'éducation supérieur et le milieu de résidence mais négativement par la taille du ménage. De même, les dépenses de consommation des ménages sont significativement influencées par le revenu, le niveau d'éducation, le milieu de résidence, la taille du ménage et la religion. Cependant, l'estimation par la méthode CLAD montre que l'ampleur de l'effet de ces facteurs diffère d'un quantile à un autre. Par ailleurs, nos résultats mettent en exergue une relation en U entre les dépenses culturelles et le revenu. La prise en compte de ces facteurs peut aider à la relance du secteur culturel au Togo.
