Censoring Survival Data01:09

Censoring Survival Data

609
Survival analysis is a statistical method used to analyze time-to-event data, often employed in fields such as medicine, engineering, and social sciences. One of the key challenges in survival analysis is dealing with incomplete data, a phenomenon known as "censoring." Censoring occurs when the event of interest (such as death, relapse, or system failure) has not occurred for some individuals by the end of the study period or is otherwise unobservable, and it might have many different...

Data Collection by Observations01:08

Data Collection by Observations

15.2K
Data collection refers to a systematic way of obtaining, observing, measuring, and analyzing accurate information. Observational studies are one of the most widely used methods of data collection. It involves collecting data by observing the behavior and physical characteristics of a sample without making any modifications to the sample.
An astronomer viewing the motion and brightness of stars in the sky and recording the data is an example of observational data collection. A botanist recording...

Selected Data About Geographic Locations

283
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) rely on two core types of data: spatial data and attribute data.Spatial DataSpatial data defines the physical location of features within a coordinate system, typically expressed in terms of latitude and longitude. It provides precise positioning for elements like roads, rivers, or buildings.Attribute DataAttribute data complements spatial data by adding descriptive information about these features. For example, a road's spatial data includes its start and...

Stratified Sampling Method01:16

Stratified Sampling Method

15.7K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a stratified sample, divide the population into groups called strata and then take a...

How Data are Classified: Categorical Data

46.3K
A variable, usually notated by capital letters such as X and Y, is a characteristic or measurement that can be determined for each member of a population. Data are the actual values of variables. They may be numbers, or they may be words. Datum is a single value.
Data are classified based on whether they are measurable or not. Categorical data cannot be measured; instead, it can be divided into categories. For example, if Y denotes a person's party affiliation, some examples of Y include...

Summary

Irish census data reveals a surprising increase in people unable to work due to permanent sickness or disability, despite support services. This trend in non-labour force participation warrants further international investigation.

Area of Science:

  • Sociology
  • Demographics
  • Public Policy

Background:

  • Government policies and priorities rely heavily on census data.
  • Republic of Ireland census data from 1986 is accessible online.
  • Analysis focused on non-labour force variables within census data.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze trends in non-labour force participation using Irish census data.
  • To identify specific categories within the non-labour force that show significant change.
  • To investigate the rise in individuals unable to work due to permanent sickness or disability.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of Irish census data from 1986 to 2011.
  • Focus on work-related variables, particularly non-labour force categories.
  • Statistical examination of percentage changes in specific demographic groups.

Main Results:

  • Overall non-labour force participation declined linearly from 47.16% (1986) to 38.14% (2011).
  • The "unable to work due to permanent sickness or disability" group significantly increased by 66%, from 6.84% to 11.41%.
  • This increase occurred despite legislative efforts and services aimed at workforce reintegration for people with disabilities.

Conclusions:

  • A notable rise in individuals unable to work due to permanent sickness or disability contradicts general trends.
  • The findings suggest a complex issue potentially influenced by factors beyond available support services.
  • Further research comparing census data from other countries is recommended to understand the prevalence and causes of this trend.
