The Capability Approach: An Interdisciplinary Introduction (2003, unknown): “Sarah Lelli (Lelli 2001) did such an empirical test for on the Panel Study of Belgian Households, and found that an analysis with fuzzy sets or factor analysis makes little difference if the same variables are selected.”
Monitoring Inequality among Social Groups: A Methodology Combining Fuzzy Set Theory and Principal Component Analysis1 (2008, unknown): “Klasen, 2000; Lelli, 2001; Schokkaert and Van Ootegem, 1990).”
On the construction of fuzzy measures for the analysis of poverty and social exclusion (2006, methodology): “When aggregating several indicators at macro level, an early attempt to choose an appropriate weighting system was due to Ram (1982), using Principal Component Analysis, which was also adopted by Maasoumi and Nickelsburg (1988). Cerioli and Zani (1990) specified the weight of any item as a function ”
Fuzzy set approach to multidimensional poverty measurement (2006, unknown): “Finally, several Authors (Clark and Qizilbash 2002; Chiappero-Martinetti 2000; Lelli 2001) have shown the strict consistency of the fuzzy approach with the theory of the Nobel Prize Amartya Sen on the Capability approach.”
Sen's Capability Approach to Welfare Economics (2004, methodology): “Finally, Lelli [39] measured welfare using 54 variables from the Panel Study of Belgian Households, focussing on psychological well-being, social interactions, economic conditions, cultural activities, working conditions, health and shelter.”
Multidimensional and Longitudinal Poverty: an Integrated Fuzzy Approach (2006, methodology): “' For instance, Chiappero Martinetti (2000), Clark and Quizilbash (2002) and Lelli (2001) use the TFR method in order to analyze poverty or well-being according to Sen's capability approach.”
