Özet:

 

This study aims at looking at the effects of increasing number of children on poverty. Unlike monetary approaches based on income and consumption expenditures, the multidimensional poverty approach, which includes dimensions such as education, health and environmental factors, can conduct a more accurate analysis based on the deprivation of individuals and households. In other words, determining how a differentiation in household size based on the number of children is reflected in the multidimensional poverty of the household is among the main goals of the study. For this purpose, in light of the data of the head of households based on the 2006 and 2017 data of the Turkish Statistical Institute (TurkStat), a multidimensional poverty measurement is carried out for Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (NUTS) Level-1 regions of Turkey and for the entire country and it is examined whether the increase in the number of children might cause an increase in the household poverty. It can be specified among the findings of the study that the multidimensional poverty is increased with the increased number of children in the households as we move from west to east of Turkey.
