Gender Development Index (GDI)

Description

Computes the Gender Development Index (GDI) based on the given dataset. The GDI measures gender disparities in three dimensions of human development: health, education, and standard of living.

Usage

gender_development_index(data)

Arguments

Value

A data frame containing the GDI values for each country, along with the individual HDI values for females and males.

Examples

data(real_data_GDI) # Load example dataset
gdi_results <- gender_development_index(real_data_GDI)
print(gdi_results)

Gender Empowerment Measure (GEM)

Description

Computes the Gender Empowerment Measure (GEM) based on the provided dataset. The GEM measures gender inequality in political representation, professional positions, and income.

Usage

gender_empowerment_measure(data)

Arguments

Value

A data frame with two columns: country and GEM, representing the GEM values for each country.

Examples

data(real_data_GEM) # Load example dataset
gem_results <- gender_empowerment_measure(real_data_GEM)
print(gem_results)

Gender Inequality Index (GII)

Description

Computes the Gender Inequality Index (GII) based on the provided dataset. The GII measures gender disparities in reproductive health, empowerment, and labor market participation.

Usage

gender_inequality_index(data)

Arguments

Value

A data frame with two columns: country and GII, representing the GII values for each country.

Examples

data(real_data_GII) # Load example dataset
gii_results <- gender_inequality_index(real_data_GII)
print(gii_results)

Gender Pay Gap (GPG)

Description

Computes the Gender Pay Gap (GPG) based on the provided dataset. The GPG is calculated as the percentage difference between male and female incomes, providing insight into income disparities between genders.

Usage

gender_pay_gap(data)

Arguments

Value

A data frame with two columns: country and gpg, representing the GPG values for each country.

Examples

data(real_data_GPG) # Load example dataset
gpg_results <- gender_pay_gap(real_data_GPG)
print(gpg_results)
