Özet:

 

This  paper  contributes  to  the  literature  by  examining  mobility  in  the  middle-income  classes  for  Turkiye.  In  this  context,  this  study’s  aim  is  to  present  a  profile  of  the  middle-income  class  in  Turkiye  and  identify  the  effects of socio-economic and demographic factors on the transition from a middle-income class to a lower income group and upper income group using a probit model.  The middle class was determined using the relative income measure. The data used in the analyses are based on the Income and  Living  Conditions  Surveys  (ILCS)  by  the  Turkish  Statistical  Institute  (Turk Stat) over the period 2015-2018. The results of the analysis indicate that the age, gender, education level, marital status, employment status housing  ownership  type  of  the  households,  and  income  type  affect  the  transition  of  middle-income  classes  into  lower  or  upper  income  classes  in different ways. Accordingly, in cases where the head of the household is male, household members are young, household members have a high education level, and where there are a small number of members in the household,  all  negatively  affect  the  probability  of  transitioning  from  a  middle-income class to a low-income class. In contrast, it positively affects the transition to a high income class.
