This paper explores the determinants of the heterogeneity in expenditure behaviors of Italian households resident in the Marche Region, using the Households Expenditure Survey pro- vided by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) for the year 2005. Through a technique of discriminant analysis we detect the socio-demographic characteristics that bet- ter partition families into well separated groups that are internally homogenous according to their purchasing patterns.

Abstract
This paper explores the determinants of the heterogeneity in expenditure behaviors of Italian households resident in the Marche Region, using the Households Expenditure Survey pro- vided by the Italian National Institute of Statistics (ISTAT) for the year 2005. Through a technique of discriminant analysis we detect the socio-demographic characteristics that bet- ter partition families into well separated groups that are internally homogenous according to their purchasing patterns.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
