Inequality indexes were estimated under different assumptions about inequality aversion and sensitivity to income transfers among different population segments. In addition, households income were adjusted for the number of children and economies of scale.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Estudios Económicos de El Colegio de México}, author={Michel Camacho, Eduardo and Cortez, Willy W.}, year={2012}, month={Jul.}, pages={347–378} }
