Abstract

[I have, for many years, used quantitative data to compare the well-being of children across countries. This research includes, for example, international comparisons of child poverty and inequality using the Luxembourg Income Study (e.g., Phipps, 1999) as well as international comparisons of children’s health and well-being (e.g., overall health status, obesity, asthma, anxiety, hyperactivity, overall “success at school”) using a variety of reasonably comparable microdata surveys such as the Statistics Canada National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth, the US National Longitudinal Survey of Youth, Mother/Child Supplement, the Health Survey for England and the Norwegian Health Survey (e.g., Phipps, 2001, 2002, 2004).]
