Now you have come to the page, Choose variable. This page give you the oportunity to select which variables and values you want to display in your result of the table. A variable is a property of a statistical unit. The page is divided into several boxes, one for each variable, where you can select values by click to highlight one or more values. It always starts with the statistics variable which is the main value counted in the table.

Indicators are based on the distribution of disposable income per consumption unit among persons.
Data in EUR are in year 2017 prices.
Consumption units : OECD modified equivalence scale (1.0 - 0.5 - 0.3).
Due to revisions to income concepts the figures for 1966-1981, 1987-1992 and 1993-2017 are not fully comparable with each other.

Concepts and definitions

Income concept

Equivalent income (household income divide by modified OECD consumption units), person weighting.

Data

Gini coefficient (%)

Gini-indeksi saa arvon 0, jos kaikki saavat saman verran tuloja ja arvon 100, jos yksi tulonsaaja saa kaikki tulot. Mitä suurempi Gini-kerroin, sitä suuremmat tuloerot.

Income decile share ratio (S90/S10)

Ratio of the income share of 10th decile (S90) and the income share of 1st decile (S10).

Income quintile share ratio (S80/S20)

Ratio of the income share of 5th quintile (S80) and the income share of 1st quintile (S20).

Palma ratio

Palma is the ratio of the income share of the top 10% to that of the bottom 40%.

Mean log deviation

Yleinen entropiamitta parametriarvolla 0. Logaritminen keskipoikkeama on tulonjakoindeksi, joka painottaa enemmän tulojakauman alaosaa. Mitä suurempi logaritminen keskipoikkeama, sitä suuremmat tuloerot.

Theil index

Yleinen entropiamitta parametriarvolla 1. Theilin indeksi on tulonjakomitta, joka painottaa enemmän tulojakauman yläosaa. Mitä suurempi Theil-indeksi, sitä suuremmat tuloerot.

Absolute Gini (mean absolute difference), €

Mean absolute difference. Arithmetic mean of the absolute values of all possible pairwise income differences.

1st decile, €

1st decile of equivalent annual income (euro)

Median, €

Median of equivalent annual income.

9th decile, €

Ekvivalenttien vuositulojen 9. desiili (euroraja, jonka alle jää 90 % henkilöistä)
