The purpose of this research is to determine the influence of income, debt, and financial literacy on financial satisfaction through financial management behaviour as a mediating variable. This causality research using per capita income data from BPS shows that Pamekasan district has the lowest per capita income so that Pamekasan district as an object with a total sample of 193 respondents by offline questionnaire. Using SEM techniques and processed with AMOS tools, the conclusion is that only financial literacy influences financial management behaviour because of their high savings awareness. Income does not influence financial satisfaction because even their income is high enough, but they still have high debt. Debt does not affect financial satisfaction because having debt does not necessarily cause financial anxiety. Some respondents have debt and have financial satisfaction, but some do not. Financial literacy has no influence on financial satisfaction but influences financial management behaviour, and financial management behaviour has not been able to meditate because their saving behaviour is unable to increase their satisfaction

There is an immense need for muslim countries to recognize the importance of women especially in education and their well-being in order to establish a prosperous society from economic perspective. A cross-section data of 1forty-nine muslim countries was analyzed along with theoretical and empirical explanation of few outlier muslim countries who were economically robust but paradoxically showed low gender-equality profile. The results in few cases showed very different results than expected however those cases in general belonged to oil-rich countries, where their strong economy stands only on the export of oil and its derivatives. The extreme case of Qatar, which has a big per-capita income however its gender inequality profile was comparable to Pakistan, whose per-capita income was only three percent as that of Qatar. Moreover, Saudi Arab’s per capita income is ten times more as that of Pakistan but its gender equality profile much less than Pakistan’s. Apart from these few cases, the variable explaining the robustness of an economy, roughly regressed negatively with the gender inequality profile, showing that observing gender equality will have positive effects on the economy of muslim countries.

Good nutrition is the foundation of human well-being that leads to better health, effective engagement of the workforce, and productive lifestyle, resulting in higher income and an integrated development trajectory. This paper attempts to comprehend the impact of climate vulnerability on household nutrition status through agriculture production systems in Odisha, India. This study using secondary data estimates a composite index of climate vulnerability on the agriculture ecosystem in Odisha at the district scale. Results suggest that among all the districts in Odisha, Bhadrak (0.193) is the most vulnerable district followed by Sonepur (0.191) and Baudh (0.190). On the other hand, Mayurbhanj (0.099) is the least vulnerable district followed by Ganjam (0.103) and Sundargarh (0.105). The fi ndings also suggest that there is a wide variation in vulnerability indicators among the districts in Odisha (0.099 – the lowest district value vs. 0.193 – the highest). The results of multivariate analysis evince that in households (both women and children) nutritional status, the composite value of “climate vulnerability” has a greater role in predicting the predictors in Odisha through the agriculture production system. The climate vulnerability has a positive and signifi cant relationship with forest area (r=0.403*), gross cropped area (r=0.489**), percent of scheduled caste population (r=0.510**), percent of urban area (r=0.427*), and per-capita income (r=0.712**). The fi ndings also signify that district-wise gross cropped area (t=3.01), average annual rainfall (t=4.05), area under irrigation (t=3.36), cropping intensity (t=3.60), and forest areas (t=1.81) play a more predictive role to determine the household nutritional status along with socioeconomic and health factors such as per-capita income (t=1.8), urbanization (t=1.91), and women’s anemic status (t=2.74). Drawing inferences from the empirical evidence, the study suggests that climate vulnerability has a much greater role in influencing household nutrition status, particularly with women and child nutrition through the agriculture production system. Appropriate policy level measures for climate-sensitive and adaptive action are the need of the hour to make agriculture production ecosystem contributes positively to nutrition status.

Introduction: The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of early marriage on monetary poverty in Indonesia. Background Problems: Recent studies on early marriage show that the prevalence of early marriage in Indonesia reached 13.5 percent (Marshan et al., 2013) and that early marriage is exacerbated poverty which causes an increase of economic burden of the family (Djamilah, 2014), an increase of family harassment, divorce and not continuing individuals to schools (Putranti, 2012), and an increase of chances of poverty by 31 percent in the United States (Dahl, 2010). However, most studies are qualitative studies. Research Methods: The study uses recent data on Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), the year 2014; with a sample of women who are marriages at age less than 18 years old for their first marriage as a proxy for early marriage; and monthly per capita income as a measurement of monetary poverty. This study employs a binary method for binary dependent variable which is whether the woman experiences monetary poverty. Findings/Results: The result shows that the prevalence of early marriage in Indonesia is reached 16.36 percent. Among those, 46.61 percent of the women who were married in their teens (before 18 years old) do not pass the nine-years basic education, and 52.35 percent of the early marriage woman does not have a health insurance card. The results of binary probit model show that early marriage does not affect the possibility of a woman experiencing monetary poverty. It means that early marriage does not influence the monthly per capita income of the women. Conclusion: The results of this study may imply that other measurements of poverty may be needed to be concerned. Therefore, the policies that are related to reducing early marriage should consider the impact of other factors on poverty.

To analyze the relation between social support and socio-demographic characteristics of oncology patients. Transversal study, developed with oncology patients living in the Ijuí city, Rio Grande do Sul state, Brazil between July and December 2012, the population was selected through convenience. For data collection we used the Brazilian version of the Social Support Scale and the Medical Outcomes Study data were analyzed with descriptive statistics resources and analytical. Average scores on the dimensions were: 82,36±24,42 (positive interaction), 85,39± 19,81(information), 87,98±18,68 (emotional support), 88,52±18,56 (material support) and 93,50±14,44 (affective support). Evidences showed higher averages in male mulattos patients (p<0,05). There was a direct and growing relationship between per capita income, social support and affective positive interaction. It was proven that patients receive social support in all dimensions, with high scores, but with variations, considering the characteristics of gender, civil status, educational level, per capita income and race.

Abstract Kentucky’s forest sector plays an important role in the state’s economic development through provision of market and nonmarket goods and services as well as the employment. The forest-dependent communities are socio-economically diverse with varying poverty rate levels. An aggregate state-level analysis of the forest sector and its contribution to communities’ well-being masks regional differences in how forest sector dependence is related to the economic well-being of dependent communities. In this research, we divided Kentucky into three regions based on county poverty rates and used common indicators of forest sector dependence and economic well-being to assess this relationship at regional level. We used panel data from 2010 to 2017 and ran fixed effects regression to assess this relationship. Results show that the relationship between secondary wood manufacturing, pulp and paper dependence and per capita income was negative in high-poverty counties whereas the relationship between pulp and paper dependence and per capita income was positive in medium-poverty counties. This reflects high structural difference in economies of medium-poverty counties relative to high-poverty counties. Most of the high-poverty counties are in rural areas with limited job opportunities. Policy interventions on capacity building and workforce training in high-poverty counties is necessary for sustained forest industries in these regions.

Abstract. Conflict avoidance increases across the adult lifespan. This cross-sectional study looks at conflict avoidance as part of a mechanism to regulate belongingness needs ( Sheldon, 2011 ). We assumed that older adults perceive more threats to their belongingness when they contemplate their future, and that they preventively react with avoidance coping. We set up a model predicting conflict avoidance that included perceptions of future nonbelonging, termed anticipated loneliness, and other predictors including sociodemographics, indicators of subjective well-being and perceived social support (N = 331, aged 40–87). Anticipated loneliness predicted conflict avoidance above all other predictors and partially mediated the age-association of conflict avoidance. Results suggest that belongingness regulation accounts may deepen our understanding of conflict avoidance in the second half of life.

In the Summer 1973 issue of the Pakistan Development Review, Mr. Mohammad Ghaffar Chaudhry [1] has dealt with two very important issues relating to the intersectoral tax equity and the intrasectoral tax equity within the agricultural sector in Pakistan. Using a simple criterion for vertical tax equity that implies that the tax rate rises with per capita income such that the ratio of revenue to income rises at the same percentage rate as per capita income, Mr. Chaudhry found that the agricultural sector is overtaxed in Pakistan. Mr. Chaudhry further found that the land tax is a regressive levy with respect to the farm size. Both findings, if valid, have important policy implications. In this note we argue that the validity of the findings on intersectoral tax equity depends on the treatment of water rate as tax rather than the price of a service provided by the Government and on the shifting assumptions regard¬ing the indirect taxes on imports and domestic production levied by the Central Government. The relevance of the findings on the intrasectoral tax burden would have been more obvious if the tax liability was related to income from land per capita.
