Book excerpt: Excerpt from Family Economics and Nutrition Review, 1998, Vol. 11: Numbers 1 and 2 The scaled measure provides much greater detail about the nature and extent of this poverty-linked phenomenon than ever before available. However, the very detail of the nearly continuous severity measure makes it inappropriate to serve, in itself, as a useful measure of the prevalence of food insecurity and hunger. For this purpose, several well-defined, broad subranges of severity level need to be designated and a simpler, categorical measure created based on these specified severity ranges.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Family Economics and Nutrition Review, 2004, Vol. 16 The food most disliked by the children was sliced beef because it seemed raw. Cheese on the sandwiches was viewed as being hard to remove if disliked, because it stuck to the bread. Bread was reported as being soggy at times; milk was reported as being outdated at times. When the children were asked what they would like to see added to the menu, they mentioned the following items: cherries chips, grapes, melon, fruit leathers, pizza, subs, granola bars, peanut butter and jelly with graham crackers, and hot meals. The children also suggested ways to improve the current menu items: pack sandwiches so they are not always squashed; be sure the milk is cold; include less cheese on everything, especially pitas; and always have dressing for vegetables. Asked for their perspective on why some children did not come to the lunch program, the children said it was too hot to walk to the site, some parents did not have the money for camps, and some children did not like the food. When asked what could be done to attract more children to the program, the children said offer better menus and have the children who come (and like it) tell their friends about it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Family Economics Review, Vol. 62: March 1960 Families.-families sometimes want to evaluate their expenditures against a standard plan. The usda food plans, giving suggested quantities of food for good nutrition at low-cost, moderate-cost, and liberal levels, may be used as such a standard. Often the chance to help with food budgeting comes via the telephone. It may be a call from a homemaker whose husband thinks their food bills are too high. She wants to know how much she should spend for food. To help her you will need to know the ages of all family members. By adding together the esti mated cost of food for each member for one or more of the food plans, you can give the homemaker an idea of the weekly cost she may expect. You will need to explain that these estimated costs assume that all 21 meals are eaten at home or are prepared from home food supplies, that they include the money value of home-produced food as well as expenditures for purchased food, and that the family must allow more for food if members eat some meals out. Re mind the homemaker also that paper goods, soap, and other nonfood items pur chased at the grocery store should not be charged against food expenditures.

Book Economics of the Family

Download or read book Economics of the Family written by Martin Browning and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-06-05 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The family is a complex decision unit in which partners with potentially different objectives make consumption, work and fertility decisions. Couples marry and divorce partly based on their ability to coordinate these activities, which in turn depends on how well they are matched. This book provides a comprehensive, modern and self-contained account of the research in the growing area of family economics. The first half of the book develops several alternative models of family decision making. Particular attention is paid to the collective model and its testable implications. The second half discusses household formation and dissolution and who marries whom. Matching models with and without frictions are analyzed and the important role of within-family transfers is explained. The implications for marriage, divorce and fertility are discussed. The book is intended for graduate students in economics and for researchers in other fields interested in the economic approach to the family.

Book The Demographic Dividend

Download or read book The Demographic Dividend written by David Bloom and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2003-02-13 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is long-standing debate on how population growth affects national economies. A new report from Population Matters examines the history of this debate and synthesizes current research on the topic. The authors, led by Harvard economist David Bloom, conclude that population age structure, more than size or growth per se, affects economic development, and that reducing high fertility can create opportunities for economic growth if the right kinds of educational, health, and labor-market policies are in place. The report also examines specific regions of the world and how their differing policy environments have affected the relationship between population change and economic development.
