Mean log deviation
In statistics and econometrics, the mean log deviation (MLD) is a measure of income inequality. The MLD is zero when everyone has the same income, and takes on larger positive values as incomes become more unequal, especially at the high end.
== Definition ==

The MLD of household income has been defined as〔Jonathan Haughton and Shahidur R. Khandker. 2009. ''The Handbook on Poverty and Inequality''. Washington, DC: The World Bank.〕
:
\mathrm=\frac\sum_^N \ln \frac

where N is the number of households, x_i is the income of household ''i'', and \overline is the mean of x_i. Naturally the same formula can be used for positive variables other than income and for units of observation other than households.
Equivalent definitions are
:
\mathrm=\frac\sum_^N (\ln \overline - \ln x_i)
=\ln \overline - \overline

where \overline is the mean of ln(''x''). The last definition shows that MLD is nonnegative, since \ln by Jensen's inequality.
MLD has been called "the standard deviation of ln(''x'')",〔 but this is not correct. The standard deviation of ln(''x'') would be
:
\mathrm
=\sqrt\sum_^N (\ln x_i - \overline)^2}

E.g., for the standard lognormal distribution, MLD = 1/2 but SDL = 1.
