Investigation of the Relationship between Women Indicators and Socio-Economic Development Index using Spatial Econometrics Models

Lale GörgülüÇağla Görgülü

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between socioeconomic development (SEGE) scores at the provincial level and women’s indicators in Türkiye. The research questions include whether there is a relationship between women’s indicators and SEGE scores, how the indicators affect SEGE scores, which indicators have a greater impact on SEGE, and how to determine the geographical distribution of the most effective indicators. The dataset for this study includes the socioeconomic development index scores of provinces and indicators related to women. The methods used in this study are correlation analysis, regression analysis, and spatial analyses (including spatial autoregressive and spatial error models, Moran’s I and Lagrange multiplier diagnostics). The study’s results indicate a negative significant relationship between the number of births of women aged 20-39 years and the proportion of agriculture in GDP. Conversely, there is a positive significant relationship between the indicator of compulsory insured women and SEGE scores. This study highlights the effects of women indicators on SEGE and contributes to the realisation of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 5.5 and 10.2, which aim to provide gender equality and inclusion of women in socioeconomic life. The findings can guide the development of women-based strategies and policies for sustainable development.

Kadın Göstergeleri ve Sosyo-ekonomik Gelişmişlik Endeksi Arasındaki İlişkinin Mekansal Ekonometrik Modeller Aracılığıyla İncelenmesi

Lale GörgülüÇağla Görgülü

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'de il düzeyindeki sosyo-ekonomik gelişmişlik skorları ile kadın göstergeleri arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla kadın göstergeleri ile Sosyo-ekonomik Gelişmişlik Endeksi (SEGE) il skorları arasında ilişki olup olmadığı, göstergelerin SEGE skorlarını nasıl etkilediği, hangi göstergelerin SEGE üzerinde daha fazla etkisi olduğu, en etkili göstergelerin coğrafi dağılımının nasıl olduğu araştırma soruları olarak belirlenmiştir. İllerin Sosyo-ekonomik Gelişmişlik Endeksi skorları ve kadın göstergeleri çalışmanın veri setidir. Bu çalışmada korelasyon analizi, regresyon analizi ve mekansal analiz yöntemleri (mekansal otoregresif ve mekansal hata modelleri, Moran's I ve Lagrange çarpanı teşhisi) kullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçları, 20-39 yaş arası kadınların doğum sayısına ilişkin göstergelerin ve tarımın GSYH içindeki payının SEGE skorları ile negatif anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahip olduğunu, zorunlu sigortalı kadın göstergesinin ise SEGE skorları ile pozitif anlamlı bir ilişkiye sahip olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır. Bu çalışma, kadın göstergelerinin SEGE skorları üzerindeki etkilerini vurgulamaktadır. Toplumsal cinsiyet eşitliğini ve kadınların sosyo-ekonomik hayata dahil edilmesini sağlamak amacıyla 5.5 ve 10.2 sayılı Sürdürülebilir Kalkınma İlkeleri’ne dikkat çekmektedir. Sürdürülebilir kalkınmayı sağlamak için kadın odaklı stratejilerin ve politikaların yönlendirilmesine katkıda bulunmaktadır.
