Economics Letters, 2010, vol. 108, issue 1, 77-80

Abstract: This paper proposes a method to decide whether data from different strata should be pooled when applying the widely used poverty mapping method developed in Elbers et al. (2003). The method uses the ultimate estimates of poverty rate as criterion.
