EU SILC Material Deprivation measure

This measure is adapted from the European Union Survey on Income and Living

Conditions (EU SILC). It asks whether the household has been unable to afford certain

items, having to go without heating due to lack of money, and ability to spend time

doing an activity for entertainment that cost money.

Recommendations for Cohort 24 at age 3:

•Repeat EU SILC measure on material deprivation from Cohort 24 at age 9 months.

•Repeat items on savings and financial strain from Cohort 24 at age 9 months.

•Repeat items on income requirements from Cohort 24 at age 9 months.

•Repeat item on food insecurity from Cohort 24 at age 9 months.
