The comparison between multidimensional deprivation for children and countries' GDP per capita has shown a moderate correlation indicating some ability to predict child deprivation on the basis of a country's economic activity. In addition, there has been a modest to absent correlation between deprivation and the various monetary poverty measures emphasising that the two concepts of poverty identify (partly) different groups of people and that the two measures of poverty should therefore be used complementary to each other, especially regarding child poverty.
