Abstract

This work analyses the deprivation levels of people living homeless in Spain and France before and during the Great Recession. The study uses a multidimensional perspective considering economic, social, and health aspects. To accomplish this, we obtain several indicators using the counting approach methodology and stochastic dominance techniques with statistical inference. Finally, the main factors that influence the probability of being multidimensionally deprived are analysed. The results of the study show that, although health and social dimensions have a particular relevance, indicators related to social assistance and housing instability have a greater influence on their situation. These results are intended to contribute better knowledge of an understudied group and to guide the design of future public policies.
