Abstract

The Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reported that the percentage of poor people in Indonesia increased from 2019 to 2021, reaching 10.14 percent. This condition highlights the need for an analytical approach capable of accurately modeling percentage data that are naturally bounded between 0 and 1. This study introduces a new approach by applying the Beta regression model to analyze the factors influencing poverty levels across Indonesian provinces. The novelty of this research lies in the application of the Beta regression model to panel data on poverty, which remains rarely explored in empirical studies on Indonesia’s socio-economic indicators. The model was chosen because it provides more efficient and unbiased parameter estimates than the ordinary least squares (OLS) method, especially when the dependent variable exhibits asymmetry and heteroskedasticity. Parameter estimation was conducted using the Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) method with the Newton–Raphson iterative algorithm to ensure convergence and estimation efficiency. The data used in this study are provincial-level poverty data sourced from official publications by the BPS. The analysis results indicate that the model meets the model suitability criteria for 2019 and 2020. Factors that significantly influenced the percentage of poor people in both years included the percentage of the population with health insurance and the literacy rate. Meanwhile, in 2021 and 2022, factors that significantly influenced the percentage of the poor population included the average years of schooling, the percentage of the population with health insurance, and the literacy rate. This study contributes to the field of applied statistics by demonstrating that the Beta regression model offers a novel and robust alternative for analyzing bounded and asymmetric socio-economic data. Furthermore, it provides new empirical insights into the statistical modeling of poverty in Indonesia, offering a methodological advancement over traditional regression approaches.

Abstract

Poverty analysis often relies on regression models whose performance can deteriorate in the presence of outliers, leading to biased estimates and unreliable conclusions. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of robust regression methods compared with Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) when modeling poverty levels across 154 regions in Sumatra. Four socioeconomic indicators were used as predictors, and outlier detection was conducted using the DFFITS approach. After identifying deviations from normality and the presence of influential observations, two robust estimation techniques M-estimation and Least Trimmed Squares (LTS) were applied to improve model stability. The results show that while all predictors significantly influence poverty, the LTS estimator provides the most accurate and robust performance, yielding the smallest Mean Squared Error (MSE) and an R-squared value of 53.37%. These findings demonstrate that LTS is better suited than OLS and M-estimation for handling data contamination and offers a more reliable approach for modeling poverty determinants
