This article aims to round out the well-established criticism in feminist research whereby measuring income poverty at household level tends to underestimate poverty among women. It demonstrates that while this indicator is underpinned by a conceptual bias that could be qualified as sexist, this is not only because of measurement at the household level, but rather the manner in which this is measured and because it is the only independent item of individual income factored into the measurement of poverty risk. A number of suggestions for improvements are made although, without more detailed research in liaison with Eurostat or national statistical institutes, it will be difficult to make progress in this area.

欧洲对货币贫困的正式衡量中的性别歧视偏见究竟从何而来?

本文旨在消除在女权主义研究中广为接受的批评,即在家庭层面衡量收入贫困往往会低估妇女的贫困。它表明,尽管该指标受到可以被视为性别歧视的概念偏见的支撑,但这不仅是因为在家庭层面进行衡量,而且是衡量这一指标的方式,并且因为它是个人的唯一独立项目将收入纳入衡量贫困风险的因素。尽管没有与欧盟统计局或国家统计机构进行更详细的研究,但在此领域很难取得进展,但提出了一些改进建议。
