In WHESRi/whesApp: Builds shiny app for the Welsh Health Equity Solutions Platform

Indicator information

The data was acquired from the National Survey for Wales, 2018-2019. The data was extracted from the variable DvWEMWBSGrp. Respondants answered a series of questions relating to mental health. Their total score was reported, with a minimum of 14 and a maximum of 70. A low score was re-coded as (14 - 44). Sample weighting from the column SampleAdultWeight were applied to make the data more representative of the general population and to account for sub-sampling. Confidence intervals were calculated using the binom.wilson() function from the {binom} R package.

Surveyed people were asked to report on their highest level of education. The derived responses were original stored as variable DvHiQual2. The original response options were:

1. National Qualification Framework levels 4-8
2. National Qualification Framework level 3
3. National Qualification Framework level 2
4. Below National Qualification Framework level 2
5. No qualification

These options were re-coded to form a four category variable Education as follows High = 1, Medium = 2, Low = 3 & 4, None = 5.
