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, 2013-2014. The data was extracted from the variable EuSilc3. 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 DvHiQual. 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.
