Section: RESEARCHES OF THE YOUNG SCIENTISTS
Language: Ukrainian
Abstract: The problems of regional disparities in the development of urban and rural areas in the context of human development
research are topical today. The settlement differences in human development issues according to such
aspects as reproduction, social status, comfortable accommodation, welfare, decent work and education are of
particular interest.
This article shows the methodical approaches of building sub-indexes of regional human development as an
example of methodological principles of forming sub-indexes by taking into account the type of area of residence.
Indicators are selected from the existing regional human development index database, for which the statistics
in the context town-village are available, using the principle of maximum coherence of main regional human
development index of the sub-indexes. Verification of indicators has been done to ensure the quality of data, and
a list of select indicators which require a specific procedure improving the reliability of data has been formed. An
example of the result of the effects of the performed procedure is given by the author. The sub-indexes of human
development with urban and rural territories are calculated in the article. The main results and the differences
in regional and settlement aspect are shown.
Key words: human development, regional human development index, subindexes of regional human development, disparities between urban and rural territories, information support.
