Econometric analysis of the determining factors of the balance of emotions of people with disabilities in Chile

Abstract

The research proposes a logit econometric model that allows determining the factors that improve the balance of emotions of people with disabilities in Chile. In the research, the different variables that influence the phenomenon of disability are studied and identified. Through binomial models, the determinants of disability are estimated using the Social Well-being Survey, designed by the Undersecretariat for Social Evaluation of the Ministry of Social Development. The results indicate that factors such as educational level, health conditions, recognition at work, mood and quality of life, significantly indicate the emotional balance of people with disabilities in Chile. This is how the variables related to recognition at work and security at home have the greatest impact on the emotional level of people with disabilities in Chile.
