Community Wealth Ranking and Household Surveys: An Integrative Approach
提出一个概念框架，系统分析资源可见性和测量误差对财富排名与家庭调查数据的影响，并用肯尼亚、马拉维、坦桑尼亚和乌干达的数据验证，帮助理解不同社区中资源的社会价值。
Abstract This article contributes to the integration of qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis. A conceptual framework systematically analysing the effects of visibility of resources and measurement errors in wealth ranking and household survey data is presented. Visibility of resources influences both the process of wealth ranking and the social value of the resources, specifically their symbolic importance. The conceptual framework is empirically examined using data from four East African countries: Kenya, Malawi, Tanzania and Uganda. The empirical results support the framework and help to more carefully interpret results and understand social values of resources in different communities.
