Abstract

This paper investigates the subjective poverty profile in Turkey between the years 2003 and 2008, using the method called “Minimum Income Question”. It utilizes the Household Budget Survey conducted by Turkish Statistical Institute and the other variables representing the household sizes and rural-urban area. The results are compared with the officially disseminated figures. Weighted regression results, subjective poverty trash holds and poverty ratios are obtained based on the sample survey. It is observed that subjective poverty ratios are higher than those of the official figures when the household sizes and the variables of rural-urban area are considered.
