摘要

本文为新的世界银行人力资本指数（HCI）提供了一个指南，将其方法置于发展会计文献的背景下。HCI将健康和教育指标结合起来，衡量今天出生的孩子在18岁生日前有望实现的人力资本，因为她所在国家普遍存在教育和健康状况不佳的风险。HCI是以生产力为单位，相对于完全教育和完全健康的基准来衡量的，范围从0到1。HCI的值表明，今天出生的孩子的生产力只有未来工人的%，如果她享受完整的教育和健康的话。

The World Bank Human Capital Index: A Guide

This paper provides a guide to the new World Bank Human Capital Index (HCI), situating its methodology in the context of the development accounting literature. The HCI combines indicators of health and education into a measure of the human capital that a child born today can expect to achieve by her 18th birthday, given the risks of poor education and health that prevail in the country where she lives. The HCI is measured in units of productivity relative to a benchmark of complete education and full health, and ranges from 0 to 1. A value ofon the HCI indicates that a child born today can expect to be onlypercent as productive as a future worker as she would be if she enjoyed complete education and full health.
