3. Socioeconomic status (SES) Socioeconomic status (SES) is one of the most important
social determinants of health and disease, thus, a widely
studied construct in the social sciences.
SES influences the accessibility, affordability, acceptability
and actual utilization of available health facilities
Socioeconomic status (SES) is a combination of social and
economic variables
4. Definition
A composite measure that typically incorporates
economic, social, and work status .
Economic status is measured by income.
Social status is measured by education, and
Work status is measured by occupation.
• Each status is considered an indicator.
• These three indicators are related but do not overlap
5. SES Scales and health
Low SES population presenting more commonly with
nutritional deficiency and communicable diseases and
High SES showing more of obesity and noncommunicable
diseases;
Access to healthcare with high SES showing a better
access.
6. Methods for social classification
Status inequalities between individuals are common,.
In general, the more complex the society, the more
numerous the layers or strata of social differentiation
7. Defintion SES Scale
The position that an individual or family occupies with
reference to the prevailing average standards of cultural
and material possessions, income, and participation in
group activity of the community
8. Why SES scale?
1. Understand the distribution of population based on SES
2. To develop a uniform system of socioeconomic
classification of the population universally based on the
income with scientific basis
3. Resources are scarce
a. Need to identify the most needy
b. Difficulty in identifying the exact number of people living
below the poverty line (BPL families) in India

Hollingshead scale, (The Hollingshead Four Factor Index
of Socioeconomic Status is a survey designed to measure
social status of an individual based on four domains:
Marital status, retired/employed status, educational
attainment, and occupational prestige.)
Mac Arthur scale (Domains: Education, income,
occupational status and wealth)

facility, main fuel for cooking, source of drinking water,
separate room for cooking, ownership of the house,
ownership of agricultural land, ownership of irrigated
land, ownership of livestock, ownership of durable goods
Used for measuring the SES both urban and rural areas
for the entire country

24. Scoring:
After filling the information ,and scoring the individual
items, the total score is summed up.
With the help of the key provided in the manual, total
score is interpreteding terms of the class.
25. Social class
Above 43 Upper Class (I)
33-42 Upper Middle Class (II)
24-32 Middle Class (III)
13-23 Lower Middle Class (IV)
Below 13 Lower Class (V)
29. Per capita monthly income = Total monthly income of the
family/Total members of family.
30. The need to update SES scale
Income ranges in the scale lose their relevance following
the depreciation in the value of the rupee .
Steady inflation, lower interest rates, and country’s
current account deficits are the main factors contributing
to fall in the value of currency.
Therefore, it is needed to update the scale regularly for
socioeconomic classification of study populations.
33. Methods to update SES scale
Kumar had tried to update Prasad Scale’s income limits
using consumer price index (CPI)
Kuppuswamy socioeconomic scale was revised with CPI .
Linking of the scale with price index makes it relevant
and meaningful and also provides a opportunity for
constant updation .
34. Price index
A price index (plural: “price indices” or “price indexes”) is
a normalized average (typically a weighted average)
of price relatives for a given class of goods or services in a
given region, during a given interval of time
Calculating the CPI for a single item
35. Wholesale price index(1902)
The change in the average price level of 676 commodities
traded in wholesale market
Weekly basis availability
36. Consumer Price Index (CPI)
Definition: A comprehensive measure used for estimation
of price changes in a basket of goods and services
representative of consumption expenditure in an
economy is called consumer price index
37. Consumer price index(1970)
Comprises multiple series classified based on different
economic group
4 series
CPI UNME (Urban Non-Manual Employee) -20th-CSO
CPI AL (Agricultural Labourer)-20 th
CPI RL (Rural Labourer)-20 th
CPI IW (Industrial Worker)-last day of month
From February 2011 the CPI (UNME) released by CSO is
replaced as CPI (urban),CPI (rural) and CPI (combined)
38. The prices of 85,000 items from 22,000 stores, and
35,000 rental units are added together and averaged.
They are weighted this way:
Housing: 41.4%, Food and Beverage: 17.4%,
Transport: 17.0%, Medical Care: 6.9%,
Other: 6.9%, Apparel: 6.0%,
Entertainment: 4.4%.
Taxes (43%) are not included in CPI computation.
39.
40.
41. Consumer Price Index is used in calculation of Dearness
Allowancewhich forms an integral part of salary of a
Government Employee.Base year to calculate CPI is
2001=100
CENTRAL= Avg AICPIN for 12 months-261.4 ×100
261.4
Kerala = Avg AICPIN for 12 months-239.92 ×100
239.92
42. Modified BG Prasad socioeconomic
scale
Modified BG Prasad socioeconomic scale is widely used to
determine the socioeconomic status .
The BG Prasad scale was formulated in 1961 keeping the
base of Consumer Price Index (CPI) for 1960 as 100
Mishra, undertook the important task of revision of
family income per month for 1998 using base year
1982=100.Presently the base year has been changed
from 1982 to 2001
The Consumer Price Index (CPI) for industrial workers (IW)
is used to calculate updated income categories
43. Updating Prasad’s Scale
The BG Prasad scale was formulated in 1961Consumer
Price Index (CPI) for 1960 as 100.
This was revised in 1982 by introducing a linking factor
of 4.93 to convert CPI (1982) from the new base of 100
to the old base CPI (1960).
Again a need was felt in 2001 to revise the base, which
was done by introducing the linking factor of 4.63.
44. Formula updated as for January
2017
CPI [IW]× 4.63× 4.93 ÷ 100.
[ 274 × 4.63) × 4.93 ÷ 100.
= 62.5429=62.5

45. MERITS
Can assess the socioeconomic status in both rural and
urban areas
Only income considered
Per capita family income so includes all earning members
Can be updated
46. Limitation
It is only income-based scale
No other domains addressed
Inflation not considered
47. Kuppuswamy’s socioeconomic
scale
The most widely used scale for urban population was
devised by Kuppuswamy in 1976.
Kuppuswamy scale is a composite score of education and
occupation of the head of the family along with monthly
income of the family, which yields a score of 3-29.
This scale classifies the study populations into high,
middle, and low SES
To get current income group, a conversion factor
calculated based on current All India Consumer Price
Index (AICPI) is applied
48. Contents
Manual
Two information blanks (one for the person concerned
and second for the father or guardian)
Score card
• The information is collected in the devised
Information blanks and with the help of
the score card the status score is obtained.
• On the basis of the total score, the
respective class is found out.
Scoring:
50. Modification in income slabs
In 1976 the CPI was taken as 296 based on 1960
In 1982 new CPI base was set at 100 when 1960 based
value became 460 (so multiplying factor 4.6)
In 2001 CPI base was set at 100 and when 1982 based
valur reached 490 (so multiplying factor 4.9)
As per 2017 January CPI value is 274 base year 2001

53. Merits
Main 3 domains are considered
Income total family income
54. Limitations
Steady inflation and consequent fall in the value of currency
make the economic criteria in the scale less relevant.
Income part is considered to be the total income of the
family and no consideration is given to size of the family:
A small family with a particular income will have higher SES
status than a bigger-sized family with similar income.
There is an overemphasis on income
Material possessions not considered
55. Marketing
Research Society of India scoring
Based on two variables
Number of “consumer durables” (from a predefined
list)-owned by the family. The list has 11 items,
ranging from ‘electricity connection’ and ‘agricultural
land’-to cars and air conditioners
Education of chief earner
56.
57. The household is categorised into one of the five groups
Class I – Upper;
ClassII – Upper Middle;
Class III – Lower Middle
Class IV – UpperLower
Class V – Lower Lower
58. Kerala Socio-Economic Status scale
A. Sukumaran Nair's (1976)
The general data sheet is divided into 5 sections
Section one elicits the name, age, caste, religion, locality
of the school, place of residence etc.
The second part calls for information regarding the level
of education of parents, siblings and other occupants of
the family
Section three elicits the details of occupation of the
members of the family
59. The last part (fifth) contains the information regarding the
school marks.
Here, the highest income given was 2501/- and above and
lowest was 300. But in now a day's even a coolie earns
750-800 per day
60. DEMERITS
The education and the lifestyle of people are totally
improved. So the application of this scale in this changed
social condition of Kerala is in question
61. Summary
SES is a predictor of health status
Socioeconomic status (SES) is a combination of social and
economic variables
SES Scales help to develop a uniform system of socioeconomic
classification of the population universally based on the
income with scientific basis
Udai Pareek and G. Trivedi scale, Kuppuswamy scale 1962, B G
Prasad classification are some Indian SES scales .
Steady inflation, lower interest rates, and country’s current
account deficits are the main factors contributing to fall in the
value of currency, so, it is needed to update the scale regularly
for socioeconomic classification of study populations

63. Poverty lines
Below Poverty Line is an economic benchmark to indicate
economic disadvantage and to identify individuals and
households in need of government assistance and aid
Since 2008, the last update, we have used $1.25 as the
global line.
As of October 2015, the new global line will be
updated to $1.90.
29.8% in India below poverty line-70 th world wide
64. 'International Poverty Line
An international monetary thresholdunder which an
individual is considered to be living in poverty
The World Bank has revised its definition and benchmarks
to measure poverty since 1990, with $2 per day income
on purchasing power parity basis
65. In 2012, the Indian government stated 22% of its
population is below its official poverty limit
The World Bank, in 2011 based on 2005's
PPPs International Comparison Program,estimated 23.6%
of Indian population, 276 million people, lived below
$1.25 per day on purchasing power parity
According to United Nation's Millennium Development
Goals (MDG) programme 270 millions or 21.9% people
out of 1.2 billion of Indians lived below poverty line of
$1.25 in 2011-2012
66. Those above poverty line live a fragile economic life.
The World Bank reviewed and proposed revisions in May
2014, to its poverty calculation methodology and
purchasing power parity basis for measuring poverty
worldwide, including India
According to the Modified Mixed Reference Period
(MMRP) concept proposed by World Bankin 2015, India's
poverty rate for period 2011-12 stood at 12.4% of the
total population, or about 172 million people; taking the
revised poverty line as $1.90.
67.
68.
69.
70.
71. Each state in India has its own poverty threshold to
determine how many people are below its poverty line
Since 2007, India set its official threshold at Rs 26 a day
($0.43) in rural areas and about Rs32 per day ($0.53) in
urban areas
These numbers are lower than the World Bank's $1.25
per day income-based definition, the definition is similar
to China's US$0.65 per day official poverty line in 2008.
72.
73. In 2011-2012, Puducherryhad its highest poverty line of R
s 1,301 (US$19) a month in rural and Rs 1,309 (US$19) a
month in urban areas, while Odishahad the lowest
poverty thresholds of Rs695 (US$10) a month for rural
and Rs 861 (US$13) a month for its urban areas
74. Ninth Plan
In its Ninth Five-Year Plan (1995–2002), BPL for rural
areas was set at annual family income less
than Rs.20,000, less than two hectares land, and no
television or refrigerator.
The number of rural BPL families was 650,000 during the
9th Plan.
The survey based on this criterion was again carried out
in 2002 and the total number of 387,000 families were
identified.
This figure was in force until September 2006.
75. Tenth Plan
In its Tenth Five-Year Plan(2002–2007) survey, BPL for
rural areas was based on the degree of deprivation in
respect of 13 parameters, with scores from 0–
4: landholding, type of house, clothing, food
security, sanitation, consumer durables, literacystatus,
labour force, means of livelihood, status of children, type
of indebtedness, reasons for migrations, etc.
76. The Planning Commission fixed an upper limit of 326,000
for rural BPL families on the basis of simple survey.
Accordingly, families having less than 15 marks out of
maximum 52 marks have been classified as BPL and their
number works out to 318,000
BPL for urban areas was based on degree of deprivation
in respect of seven parameters:
roof, floor, water, sanitation, education level, type of
employment, and status of children in a house.
A total of 125,000 upper families were identified as BPL
in urban area in 2004.
77. Kerala
The Government of Kerala is one of the few state
governments which has formulated its own criteria.
In Kerala there are nine parameters.
Families which lack access to four or more parameters are
classified as BPL.
78. The nine parameters
No land or less than five cents of land
No house or dilapidated house
No sanitation latrine
Family with an illitrate family member
No regular employed person in the family
79. No access to safe drinking water
Women-headed household or presence of widows or
divorcee
Scheduled castes and scheduled tribes (SC/ST)
Mentally retarded or disabled member in the family

87. Socio Economic and Caste Census
2011
First findings were revealed on 3 July 2015
The first paperless census in 640 districts
To use the SECC data in all its programmes such
as MGNREGA, National Food Security Act, and the Deen
Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana
88. In January 2017, Central Government accepted
recommendations to use Socio-Economic Caste Census,
instead of poverty line, as the main instrument for
identification of beneficiaries and transferring of funds for
social schemes in rural areas
89. Report-key findings
