Objectives:

To study the socio-economic profile of Nausel Village.

Context and outcome:

The survey was conducted by a team of 5 members from the Department of Economics, Govt.J.Thankima College, namely,Dr.Lalzuiliana, Lalrinfeli (HOD), Lalmuanpuia, Lalngaihawma, & Dr.Lalrinkimi Pachuau.

Socio economic status has been operationalized in a variety of ways, most commonly as education, social class, or income. In this study, we also use occupational complexity, literacy and education, income etc., as alternative measures of socio-economic status. Studies show that in analyses of health inequalities in the general population, the choice of indicators influence the magnitude of the observed inequalities. The indicators chosen are believed to reflect the socio-economic status of the Village in study.
