Notes

  • Figures are not calculated for City of London or Isles of Scilly due to small numbers of deaths and populations.

  • Figures are based on the number of deaths registered and mid-year population estimates, aggregated over 3 consecutive years.

  • Figures are based on geographical boundaries as of May 2016.

  • Figures for England, Wales, regions, counties and local authorities exclude deaths of non-residents.

  • Scotland includes non-usual residents who die in Scotland and do not have an area of residence within Scotland and imputation is used to assign to geography of ‘residence’ (see section 1.3.1).

  • Northern Ireland also includes non-usual residents whom are allocated to place of death - See for more details.

  • Excludes residents of communal establishments except NHS housing and students in halls of residence where inclusion takes place at their parents’ address.

  • Local areas for England are upper tier local authorities for healthy and disability-free life expectancy.

  • Local areas in Wales are unitary authorities.

  • Local areas in Scotland are council areas.

  • Local areas in Northern Ireland* are local government districts.

    • Northern Ireland local area data only covers the period 2013 to 2015.
  • † Census estimates only cover the period 2010 to 2012.

  • †† Health prevalence represents the proportion of the population reporting their general health as either very good or good.

The adjusted R square term:

Similar to the R squared term, the adjusted R squared term measures the explanatory power of a regression model by measuring how well the data points fit the curve or equation predicted by a regression model. The adjusted R squared also takes into account the number of terms that have been added to the model to adjust the R square. It has a tendency to decrease if irrelevant terms have been added to the model and increase if more useful terms are added in. The adjusted R squared can sometimes be negative, if there are too many explanatory variables that weakly predict the model, given the amount of observations. The closer an adjusted R squared value is to 1, the more accurate explanatory power the model has.
