Healthy life expectancy; training; 1997/2000-2011/2014

This table provides information on healthy life expectancy and overall life expectancy. This table presents four variants of healthy life expectancy: Life expectancy in well-experienced health. Life expectancy without physical limitations. Life expectancy without chronic diseases. Life expectancy in good mental health. Life expectancy in year X indicates how many years an average person of a certain age will still live, assuming that age-specific mortality rates throughout the rest of life will remain the same as in year X. Healthy life expectancy in year X indicates how many years an average person of a certain age will still live in good health, assuming that age-specific mortality and age-specific chances of good health throughout the rest of life will remain the same as in year X. In the table, the data on (healthy) life expectancy can be broken down to the following characteristics: —Gender —Age —Level of training —Period Data available from: 1997/2000 to 2011/2014 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are final Changes as of 18 January 2016 The figures in this table are partly from the Health Survey. As of 2014, CBS has added variables on income and wealth to the weighing model of the Health Survey. This is because some income groups and wealth groups are relatively less likely to participate in surveys than others. However, adding these variables to the weighing model was not done properly. This has caused some respondents’ responses to be counted too heavily in determining the figures to be published. Other respondents were taken with too low weight. Rectifying this error affects published figures using the 2014 Health Survey. However, the impact on the figures in this table is limited, as several volumes of Health Survey have been used, making the impact of the year 2014 relatively small. Changes as of 9 December 2015 The table has been extended to include figures covering the period 2011/2014. When are new figures coming? This table has been discontinued. New figures appear in the Healthy Life Expectancy table; level of education. See paragraph 3.
