Notes:

Data are from the most recent national surveys available in each country (see General population survey tables, Statistical bulletin 2013).

The age range is from between 15 and 18 to between 59 and 64. Variations in age ranges may slightly influence disparities between countries.

The most recent general population survey reported by the Netherlands display a wide variation in results compared with 2005 which may reflect methodological differences. The data is provided for information, but given the lack of comparability between surveys should be treated with caution.

The most recent general population survey reported by Italy display a wide variation in results compared with the previous surveys which may reflect methodological differences. The data is provided for information, but given the lack of comparability between surveys should be treated with caution.
