Household Poverty and Deprivation Among Children

How strong are the links?

Anne Skevik Grødem

NOVA - Norwegian Social Research, anne.s.grodem{at}nova.no

This article focuses on the links between family income, deprivation as reported by parents and deprivation as experienced by children. Data are drawn from a survey of Norwegian families, in which low-income families are oversampled. Three areas of deprivation are explored: housing, consumption and subjective experiences. In each area, indicators of childhood deprivation are developed. It is found that there are clear links, if no absolute overlap, between `adult' and `child' deprivation in each area. When looking at which children experience deprivation, we find that non-western immigrants, children with many siblings and children with non-employed parents are most at risk.

Key Words: children • deprivation • Norway • poverty
