9. The 'Workless, other inactive' group consists of families in which all adults are economically inactive ( i.e. where no adult is in work or unemployed). This includes working-age adults in receipt of sickness and disability benefits, who may have living standards lower than those implied by the results presented because of additional costs associated with their disability (for which no adjustment has been made here).

14. Unequivalised income does not take account of the number of people living in the household. Equivalised income values are adjusted depending on the number of people in the house to reflect the notion that larger households need more money. Results published here may differ from other sources which use equivalised net income to calculate income quintiles or deciles.

15. The ratios calculated for this report used net household income before housing costs have been deducted. Ratios of housing costs to income will vary depending on the choice of income variable and this should be kept in mind when interpreting the results. More information about the performance indicators is available here: http://www.gov.scot/About/Performance/scotPerforms/partnerstories/HARO/Indicators
