In our analysis, we use the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) datasets for years of 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018. CFPS is a nationally representative, longitudinal survey of Chinese communities, families and individuals funded by the Chinese government through Peking University in 2010. The studies in CFPS convey a wealth of information which focuses on the economic as well as the non-economic characteristics of the Chinese population. Therefore, the samples of CFPS are conductive to the measurement and analysis of the multidimensional poverty. Specifically, our sample selection process is as follows: (1) We exclude households in the urban region to focus on the poverty in rural region of China; (2) We eliminate the missing household samples in some years to ensure a balanced panel dataset; (3) We delete observations with missing values of variables. Our final sample consists of 4511 households that can be tracked in the 5 periods.
