This research has been built by estimating the affects of parental income on children's nutritional health status for Tsimane', a highly autarkic community of foragers and horticulturists who live in the Bolivian Amazon. The whole analysis was carried out in three steps: Univariate analysis, Multivariate analysis, and Robustness analysis. Up to the Multivariate analysis (for the children below 16 years of age), it was not possible to reach a definite conclusion about the effect of parental income on child health. Therefore, to examine the robustness of the results of the multivariate analysis,...
This research has been built by estimating the affects of parental income on children's nutritional health status for Tsimane', a highly autarkic community of foragers and horticulturists who live in the Bolivian Amazon. The whole analysis was carried out in three steps: Univariate analysis, Multivariate analysis, and Robustness analysis. Up to the Multivariate analysis (for the children below 16 years of age), it was not possible to reach a definite conclusion about the effect of parental income on child health. Therefore, to examine the robustness of the results of the multivariate analysis, all the multivariate regressions were repeated with children below 10 years of age. Analysis says, father's income suggests significant positive association with children's nutritional health status only for the children below 10 years of age, access to credit for the mother suggests significant positive association with children's nutritional health status for the children below 16 years of age, and family size consistently suggests significant negative association with children's nutritional health status. This paper also discusses possible reasons for such findings.
