3. Empirical Findings:
For chain A, the variable chosen for human achievement were life expectancy and Social
expenditure in health and education for the timeline of 1970 to 1992. For every percentage point
increase in average share of GDP invested in health and education, the life expectancy shortfall
decreases about 1.75 %. Similarly 1% increase in the female primary gross enrollment rate is
estimated to reduce the life expectancy shortfall by 0.1%.
For chain B, the variable chosen were GDP per capita, level of HD and Gross domestic
investment. The relationship between HD and economic growth was stronger the higher
investment rate and the more equally distributed the income.
