This study is conducted to examine the impact of social indicators on national income. In
particular, this study discusses social indicators and examines the relationship between
social indicators and GDP in ASEAN countries using data from 10 ASEAN countries. The
data period in this study was 36 years from 1980 to 2015. This study carried out a panel
data analysis method called Pooled Ordinary Least Square (OLS) and long-term
budgeting. The empirical results confirm that there is a cointegration between the
variables examined. The results showed that fertility rate variables, birth rates and the
population had significant relationships with national income.
