Adult lifestage

Adults aged between 16 and 54 are classified by age, by the presence of dependent children in the household, and (in some instances) by the age of the youngest dependent child.

Adults aged 55 and over are classified by age, whether they are in one or two-person households, and (in some instances) by the presence of dependent children.

Adult lifestage uses the alternative definition of an adult (anyone aged 16 and over). This definition is different from the standard definition for adults, children and dependent children used in most census results.

Age

Age is derived from the date of birth question and is a person's age at their last birthday, at 27 March 2011. Dates of birth that imply an age over 115 are treated as invalid and the person's age is imputed. Infants less than one year old are classified as 0 years of age.

This is the first publication of adult critical care data which forms part of Hospital Episode Statistics (HES) and is collected as part of the Critical Care Minimum Data Set (CCMDS). It covers critical care periods ending between 1 April 2008 and 31 March 2009 and draws on records submitted by providers as an attachment to the inpatient record. During the period covered by this report not all NHS trusts with critical care capacity have completed data submissions, so data quality and coverage is variable in some cases. Publishing the critical care HES data for the first time as experimental statistics allows for discussion, analysis and promotion of the data set, which in turn should lead to improved coverage and data quality.

The 2009 Adult Dental Health Survey (ADHS) is the fifth in a series of national dental surveys that have been carried out every decade since 1968.

A three part study by the National Institute of Adult Education to enquire into the adequacy of provision in selected areas by the various agencies for adult education. It included surveys of the general adult population, students in adult education and tutors, between April 1966 and June 1968. Seven areas were selected for the survey, based on four factors for which statistical information could be obtained: terminal education age; occupational composition (social class); proportion of domestic rateable value from property of high rateable value; and inter-censal population movement between 1951 and 1961.
The survey of adults (SN:66040) collected data by means of interviews with a random sample of the adult population of each area, and covered attitudes to, knowledge of, and participation in adult educational activities.
The survey of students (SN:66041) collected data by means of questionnaires completed by a random sample of students currently enrolled in Local Education Authority, extra-mural and Workers' Educational Association classes, covering the same points with additional data on circumstances relating to aspects of the class attended.
A third survey (SN:66042) collected data by means of enquiries addressed to part-time tutors in adult education to provide information on staffs' own motives and attitudes, recruitment, future teaching intentions and also their views as to students' motivations and satisfactions.

Note: This dataset has been archived as of January 2024, as will not be made available to the public. Information that the data is ward-level aggregated which is volatile and easy to misinterpret the data and the level datasets are misleading if published. This data shows the percentage of adults (age 18 and over) classed as having Excess Weight. Excess Weight is a major cause of premature deaths and avoidable ill-health. Excess weight is a term used for overweight, which includes obesity. Excess weight is defined in adults as a BMI greater than or equal to 25kg/m2. The data is age-standardised, so differences in the population age structures of areas will not affect comparison of rates. This dataset shows estimates based on sample sizes that may be quite small particularly at district level, so not too much should not be read into apparent differences between districts which might not be statistically significant. Thus as with many other datasets, this data should be used together with other data and resources to obtain a fuller picture. Data source: Public Health England, Public Health Outcomes Framework (PHOF) indicator 2.12. This data is updated annually.
