ppitables: Lookup Tables to Generate Poverty Likelihoods and Rates using the Poverty Probability Index (PPI)

Project Status: Active – The project has reached a stable, usable state and is being actively developed. Lifecycle: stable CRAN_Status_Badge cran checks CRAN CRAN CRAN R-hub R-CMD-check test-coverage Codecov test coverage CodeFactor DOI

Lookup tables for estimating the likelihood of poverty using the Poverty Probability Index (previously called Progress out of Poverty Index) or PPI from country-specific indicators collected from cross-sectional surveys. These lookup tables are extracted from documentation of the PPI found at https://www.povertyindex.org.

Installation

You can install ppitables from CRAN with:

install.packages("ppitables")

You can install the current development version from the Katilingban R-universe:

install.packages(
  "ppitables",
  c('https://nutriverse.r-universe.dev', 'https://cloud.r-project.org')
)

Usage

The ppitables package contains PPI lookup tables for the 61 countries1 where PPI can currently be calculated. To be able to use the lookup tables in ppitables appropriately, you need to be aware of the naming syntax used for the tables for each country. The name for each table will always have three fixed or constant components as follows:

ppiXXXYYYY

The name of any of the PPI tables contains:

  1. ppi in lower case letters;
  2. XXX which is the the three letter ISO code of the country of interest (all capitals); and,
  3. YYYY which is the specific year at which the country PPI table was released.

These three components are joined together without any spaces or gaps.

Some country lookup tables may have additional components to their name which are added after the year separated with an underscore. These usually signify that a lookup table released on a particular year has a subset table in which the poverty likelihoods for a given PPI score are reported based on a different poverty definition or cut-off. This additional component to the table name is usually a character value or alphanumeric and is usually country-specific. To know more about what this additional component to some PPI tables refer to, read the index table below of the PPI tables available in this package.

Following are the available PPI country tables from the ppitables package. This is updated as at 11 April 2023 using information from the PPI site.

To extract the actual PPI tables, the get_table() function can be used. The get_table() function wraps around the find_table() function to make a search for a specific PPI table and then extracts the table/s and puts them together into a tidy data frame.

For example, to get the actual PPI tables for all countries with PPI tables, the following command can be used in R:

get_table()
