Orazio Attanasio, an economist at University College London, said: "Angus Deaton is one of thefew people who understands consumption behaviour deeply, both across individuals and overtime."
伦敦大学学院(University College London)经济学家奥拉齐奥·阿塔纳西奥(Orazio Attanasio)表示:“安格斯·迪顿是深刻理解消费行为的极少数人之一,他对消费行为的理解不仅涵盖广大个体,还涵盖时间维度。
Mr Deaton advocated the importance of building extensive data sets on consumption patternsto understand the determinants of poverty. Contrary to what was previously assumed, heshowed that increasing people's income leads to a better food intake. As a result, there waslittle empirical reason to orient aid programmes only towards food as opposed to economygrowth, as some agencies had recommended.
迪顿主张构建广泛的消费模式数据集,据此理解贫困的决定因素,他认为这很有必要。与以往的假设相反,他展示了提高人们的收入会带来更好的食物摄入。这意味着,没有什么实证理由支持某些机构的建议,即援助计划应当专注于提供食物,而非促进经济增长。
