<![CDATA[This paper aims to identify the determinants affecting the Human Development Index (HDI) in Lampung Province, Indonesia, during the periode 2022-2024 using panel data regression. Lampung consistenly ranks among the provinces with the lowest HDI scores in Sumatera, indicating developmental disparties across regions. The research employs secondary data from 15 districts/cities and includes variables such as life expectancy, expected years of schoolingm mean years of schooling, and expenditure per capita. Panel data regression models fixed effect, random effect, and common effect were evaluated using chow, hausman, and lagrang multiplier tests to select the most approriate model. The random effect model was chosen, supported by a high R-Squared value of 92,71% indicating strong explanatory power. The analysis found that life expectancy and mean years of schooling significantly influence HDI, while expected years of schooling and expenditure per capita were not statistically significant in this model. The analysis shows that ensuring equal opportunities in health and education significantly contributies to better human development. Future research is recomended to incorporate qualitative approaches and more recent variables to enrich the analysis.]]>
