Abstract

Este artículo busca examinar la asociación entre variables de satisfacción y características propias del individuo y su entorno con la percepción de pobreza de los colombianos. A partir de la Encuesta Nacional de Calidad de Vida (ENCV) del DANE del ano 2011, se estima un modelo de elección discreta logit y coeficientes estandarizados para la pobreza subjetiva. Los resultados muestran que aunque el ingreso tiene el mayor peso en la percepción de pobreza, el estar bien nutrido se constituye como la capacidad más elemental para que un colombiano pueda desarrollar otras capacidades. Además, se encuentra que situaciones de violencia como el desplazamiento forzoso, tienen un peso significativo en la percepción de pobreza de aquellos que la padecen. Finalmente, se observa que los colombianos tienden a conformarse con sus vínculos sociales, mostrándose satisfechos con aspectos de su vida asociados a la capacidad de desenvolverse en sociedad, aun cuando se consideran pobres.
