Abstract

This study uses quantitative research methods with OLS (Ordinary Least Squares) data analysis techniques and Simple Linear Regression Analysis. One of the causes of household poverty is economic activities that meet various needs for goods and services. The commodity consumed is one of the indicators of household/family welfare. The data used in this study is SUSENAS data from 2021, which includes social capital for reducing household poverty in the Gorontalo Province area. In this study, the results of the analysis showed that social capital had a negative but not statistically significant effect on household poverty. On the other hand, the length of schooling, age, marital status, number of household members, and floor area have a positive and statistically significant influence on household poverty. Meanwhile, gender, business credit, primary employment, and housing status did not have a statistically significant effect on household poverty.
