set of variables and weights


Explanation:
"Esta metodologia ["Proxy Means Testing"] se apoia em métodos estatísticos, que geram um conjunto de ponderadores combinando informação de 17 variáveis altamente correlacionadas com a qualidade de vida das famílias." (traduzido do espanhol)

"Proxy Means Testing" em inglês:

"And we need not stop there; we can imagine adding layers of other proxy variables, until we obtain a PMT model—a set of variables and weights associated with them that
accurately predicts the welfare of different household. In practice, most PMT models use more than a dozen of different variables."
