Chapter Chapter 7 in Multilateral Wellbeing Comparison in a Many Dimensioned World, 2019, pp 181-202 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The need to compare a collection of distributions multilaterally can arise in a variety of situations. Here in studies of distributional differences, the diversity of application in the literature is illustrated in univariate and multivariate paradigms. Five examples are reported: studies covering differences in income levels in Canadian Aboriginal–non-Aboriginal and gender based groupings; the effects of German education reforms on the educational attainments of students; investment portfolio performance comparisons; land allocation and crop returns in Sub Saharan Africa irrigation schemes; and a trivariate national income-education-health comparison.
