Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper investigates factors contributing to extreme poverty among female-headed households in Indonesia, with a specific focus on the impact of disabilities. Analyzing data from the 2021 National Socio-Economic Survey, this research combined both principal component and path analysis to uncover the link between poverty dimensions (isolation, physical weakness, powerlessness, and vulnerability) and extreme poverty. The study revealed that various dimensions influence extreme poverty, and the presence of disabilities within a household exacerbates the risk of extreme poverty and can alter the significance of initially insignificant variables. These findings underscore the critical role of disabilities in shaping extreme poverty outcomes.
