Use the table. Among the three countries, where would the Gender Inequality Index likely be highest?

Use the table. Which country would likely have the highest GII?

Use the table. Which country has the clearest empowerment and labor disadvantage for women despite low reproductive risk?

Use the table. Where would GII likely be highest because all three listed gender indicators are weakest?

A class compares Malawi, Turkey and Norway on the Gender Inequality Index (GII). Which country would likely have the lowest GII?
A class compares Germany, Colombia and Yemen on the Gender Inequality Index (GII). Which would likely have the highest GII?
Pakistan has high maternal mortality and few women in paid work. The Philippines has a high adolescent birth rate. Spain has low reproductive risk and near parity in schooling and work. Which would likely rank best on GII?
In Mexico, women's parliamentary seats and labor force participation rise while adolescent births fall. What direction would that change push the GII?
Use the Brazil Lorenz curve. What does it show about income distribution?

Use the South Africa Lorenz curve. What kind of Gini coefficient does it correspond to?

Use the Sweden Lorenz curve. Compared with a curve that hugs the bottom until P80, this curve suggests what about income distribution?

Use the Mexico Lorenz curve. About what share of all income goes to the poorest 40% of households?

For India, an older Lorenz curve put P40 near 18% of income. Use the current curve. What direction does the change suggest?

For the United States, an older Lorenz curve had P80 around 60% of income. Use the current curve. What happened to income distribution?

For China, an older curve put P60 near 35% of income. Use the current curve. What direction is shown?

Use the Nigeria Lorenz curve. If next year's curve lies farther below equality at every percentile, what happens to the Gini coefficient?

In Bangladesh, female secondary enrollment rose while fertility fell. Which explanation do development geographers most often give for this link?
In Ethiopia, more rural girls complete secondary school and more women enter formal jobs. What fertility change would development geographers most expect over time?
In Niger, girls' secondary completion remains low and women's wage employment is limited. Which development issue is most directly connected to those conditions?
South Korea's female education and formal employment expanded while fertility dropped to very low levels. What broad development pattern does this fit?
A Guatemala program keeps girls in school through secondary level and connects graduates to paid jobs. What demographic effect would geographers expect if it succeeds?
One Indian state has higher female literacy and labor force participation than another and also lower fertility. What does this comparison illustrate?
Rwanda increases girls' schooling and women hold many legislative seats. How would those changes affect GII if health indicators also improve?
Use the table for Country X. What does the pair of inequality measures show?

Use the table for South Africa. What is the best interpretation of this contrast?

Use the table. Which country shows the sharpest income inequality problem compared with its gender-inequality result?

Denmark is described with a low Gini coefficient and a low GII. What does that combination mean?
The United States has a moderate income-inequality result, while another country with similar income inequality has a much higher GII. What should a geographer conclude?
Saudi Arabia has high income per person but a high GII in a class comparison. What does that show about development?
Brazil's Gini coefficient falls over a decade, but its GII stays nearly unchanged. What changed most clearly?
