Implementation of the Threshold Aggregation Model for Estimation of the Child Well-Being Index in the Subjects of RF

This paper presents a methodological approach for calculating a composite child well-being index across Russian regions using a threshold aggregation model. The researchers analyzed socioeconomic factors affecting children and families to identify regional trends. The study involved collaboration between economists, sociologists, mathematicians, IT specialists and practitioners, with results presented in tables and digital cartograms. The work addresses the need for comprehensive assessment tools to guide policy recommendations for improving child well-being.

Key points

• The study uses a threshold indicator aggregation model to estimate child well-being indices
• Analysis was conducted across multiple subjects (regions) of the Russian Federation
• The approach integrates socioeconomic indicators affecting children and families
• Results were presented using both tabular data and digital cartograms
• The study involved an interdisciplinary team across multiple professional fields

Limitations

The document is a methodological paper that does not provide detailed results or evidence of which specific socioeconomic factors most influence child well-being, nor does it evaluate the effectiveness of any interventions. The abstract does not contain sufficient information about specific findings, regional variations, or recommendations for policy.
