childless, surveyed in 2011, from Austria, non-unemployed, with all non-income dimensions at the best levels. Weights are used in all estimations.
Note: Example of interpretation: 0.1 above the bar labelled HEAvbad, means that is a person is in very bad, rather than very good, health (i.e., if HEAvbad = 1) and has all the other nonincome dimensions at their reference (best) levels, her equivalent income is 0.1 percent of her income. The figure is calculated as: 100exp(φ2). Other figures can be calculated and interpreted in the same way.
Note: The first (second) number in parentheses next to a country label is the country’s rank by the average income (equivalent income) or, on the bottom panel, by the respective growth rates.
Note: The first (second) number in parentheses next to a country label is the country’s rank by the Atkinson index for income (equivalent income) or, on the bottom panel, by the respective growth rates.
 Note: Decomposition is based on equation (9). Y, UNE, HEA, HOU, CRI and ENV refer to the contributions of income, unemployment, health, housing, crime and environment, respectively.
