Ketimpangan pendapatan masih menjadi tantangan pembangunan yang dihadapi
oleh berbagai provinsi di Pulau Sumatera. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk
menganalisis pengaruh Produksi Crude Palm Oil (CPO), Teknologi Informasi dan
Komunikasi (TIK), dan Rata-rata Lama Sekolah (RLS) terhadap Ketimpangan
Pendapatan pada 10 provinsi di Pulau Sumatera selama periode 2012–2023.
Metode analisis yang digunakan adalah regresi data panel dengan pendekatan Fixed
Effect Model (FEM). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa Produksi Crude Palm
Oil (CPO) dan Teknologi Informasi dan Komunikasi (TIK) tidak berpengaruh
signifikan terhadap ketimpangan pendapatan. Sementara itu, Rata-rata Lama
Sekolah (RLS) berpengaruh negatif dan signifikan terhadap ketimpangan
pendapatan, yang berarti bahwa peningkatan tingkat pendidikan dapat mengurangi
ketimpangan pendapatan. Implikasi penelitian ini menunjukkan pentingnya
peningkatan kualitas dan pemerataan akses pendidikan guna meningkatkan
keterampilan dan kesempatan kerja masyarakat secara lebih merata, sehingga dapat
mengurangi kesenjangan pendapatan di Pulau Sumatera.

Kata Kunci: Produksi Crude Palm Oil (CPO), Teknologi Informasi dan
Komunikasi (TIK), Rata-rata Lama Sekolah (RLS), Ketimpangan Pendapatan.

ABSTRACT Title : Analysis of Income Inequality in Sumatra Island: Panel Data Regression Model Author : Nabila Malisa Student IDE : 2101101010084 Faculty/Department : Faculty of Economics and Business/Development Economics Supervisors : Talbani Farlian, S.E., M.A and Nur Aidar, S.E., M.S.E Concentration : Regional Economics Income inequality remains a development challenge faced by various provinces on the island of Sumatra. This study aims to analyze the effect of Crude Palm Oil (CPO) Production, Information and Communication Technology (ICT), and Average Years of Schooling (ARS) on Income Inequality in 10 provinces on the island of Sumatra during the period 2012–2023. The analytical method used is panel data regression with the Fixed Effect Model (FEM) approach. The results show that Crude Palm Oil (CPO) Production and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) have no significant effect on income inequality. Meanwhile, Average Years of Schooling (ARS) has a negative and significant effect on income inequality, which means that increasing education levels can reduce income inequality. The implications of this study show the importance of improving the quality and equalizing access to education to improve skills and employment opportunities more evenly among the community, thereby reducing income inequality on the island of Sumatra. Keywords: Crude Palm Oil (CPO) Production, Information and Communication Technology (ICT), Mean Years of Schooling (MYS), Income Inequality.
