Statistics are most often revised for 1 of 2 reasons:

  1. For certain statistics initial estimates are released with the expectation that these may be revised and updated as further data becomes available.
  2. Revisions may also be made when methods or systems are changed.

These types of planned revisions should not be confused with errors in released statistics, which are genuine mistakes. Such mistakes occur rarely and, when they do happen, corrections are made in a timely manner, announced and clearly explained to users in line with the Code of Practice for Official Statistics (Principle 2, Practice 7).

We have corrected two errors in the “October 2020 to June 2021- UK, age, sex and country” edition of the “Quarterly personal well-being estimates – non-seasonally adjusted” dataset. We have corrected an error in the data for Quarter 1 (Jan to Mar) 2021, which is displayed in “Subgroups - Life Satisfaction”, “Subgroups - Worthwhile”, “Subgroups - Happiness” and “Subgroups - Anxiety” tables. The previous version displayed incorrectly weighted data for the personal wellbeing estimates of the Quarter 1 2021. We have also corrected an error in the “UK- Anxiety” table. The previous version had data for “low” and “medium” anxiety displayed under “Medium” and “Low” headings, respectively. It should have displayed the “low” and “medium” data under “Low” and “Medium” headings, respectively. These happened because of human error. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
