More Likely to Be Poor Whatever the Measure: Working-Age Persons with Disabilities in the United States

This article examines whether disability is a correlate of poverty when poverty is measured using (1) the official poverty measure; (2) the supplemental poverty measure (SPM); and (3) two multidimensional poverty measures created by the authors. The findings support the hypothesis that disability is associated with poverty in the United States, irrespective of the poverty measure under use.
