In other words, a concern with reliability is integral to the method and expressed in terms of what Bayesian statisticians called 'credible intervals'. These are similar to the confidence intervals of classical statistics.  Therefore, 2.5% and 97.5% credible intervals were generated to accompany all local area estimates of the rates and numbers of people in the various literacy, numeracy and ICT skills levels. he survey was clustered by wards within Government Office Regions and there were 8,730 interviews with adults in households aged 16-65, representing a 59% response rate of selected households.","temporal_coverage_to":"2003","temporal_coverage_from":"2002","taxonomy_url":"","import_source":"DATA4NR-data4nr-export-09-02-2010.csv","department":"Department for Children, Schools and Families","update_frequency":"","national_statistic":"0","categories":"","openness_score":"1","published_via":"","geographic_granularity":"","published_by":"Department for Children, Schools and Families [11398]","openness_score_last_checked":"2011-06-06T14:02:18.430483"},"resources":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.dfes.gov.uk\/readwriteplus_skillsforlifesurvey\/","description":" ","format":""}]}
