abstract: 'Poverty as a global problem is also associated with a solution to

  material deprivation. In connection with the membership of Slovakia in

  the European Union, we have adopted European legislation in this area.

  Currently, there is a European 2020 strategy in the countries of the

  European Union, in which one of the five main targets are ``Combating

  Poverty and Social Exclusion{''''}. Target groups of the strategy are also

  people at the risk of material deprivation, disadvantaged job seekers,

  or people at risk of losing their job. Material deprivation is not only

  a threat to people who have problems with employment, but generally to

  persons who face some form of shortage in the items that their household

  cannot afford, because of their financial possibilities. Wages or other

  forms of income that represent the basic income of households may not be

  sufficient as an indicator of material deprivation. The relationship

  between income and material deprivation requires global attention in all

  EU countries as well as in Slovakia. The main objective of this article

  is to quantify the influence of selected factors on the equivalent

  disposable income of materially deprived and non-deprived Slovak

  households, their comparison and interpretation. The analysis will be

  based on the statistical survey on Income and Living conditions EU SILC.

  The effect of listed factors will be verified using the GLM procedure in
