The growing indebtedness of households reported over the last 30
years and in most developed countries has serious economic and
social implications. This book provides insight into the concepts,
measures, and determinants of household indebtedness,
over-indebtedness, and well-being by integrating theoretical
perspectives, adopting recent analytical methods, and using a
sample of Polish households. The authors identified the
socio-demographic and economic characteristics of indebted and
over-indebted households, as well as the basic characteristics of
indebtedness and the differences in its subjective perception among
over-indebted households and those that are not over-indebted. They
determined the spatial differentiation of over-indebtedness,
examining the relationship between economic, social and behavioural
factors and over-indebtedness and the role of over-indebtedness in
shaping the economic well-being of households. The results of a
questionnaire conducted on a sample of Polish households and
econometric modelling served as the basis for assessing the
economic well-being of indebted households. This assessment was
conducted with the use of a composite well-being indicator
developed by the authors. Given the multidimensional nature of the
issues being analysed, the authors offer an approach that accounts
for two separate but overlapping dimensions of economic well-being,
namely material and financial, and two ways of assessing each of
them: objective and subjective. The book holds appeal for
researchers, scholars, and students of economics, finance, consumer
economics, and economic psychology and offers practical guidance
for policymakers and advisors who deal with consumer affairs.
