LE index
(for PQLI)
(LE1 - MinLE)
━━━━━━━━━ x 100
(MaxLE - MinLE)

LE1 = life expectancy at age 1
IMR index
(for PQLI)
(HighIMR - IMRₓ)
━━━━━━━━━ x 100
(HighIMR - LowIMR)
Education Index
(for PQLI)
⅔ Literacy Rate
x ⅓ Gross Enrollment
━━━━━━━━━
PQLI
(Physical Quality of Life Index)
LE1 index + Edu index + IMR index
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
3
HDI
(Human Development Index)
LE0 index + GDP index
LE index
(for HDI)
(LE0 - MinLE)
━━━━━━━━━ x 100
(MaxLE - MinLE)

LE0 = life expectancy at age 0
GDP index
(for HDI)
logGDP - logMinGDP
━━━━━━━━━━━━ x 100
logMaxGDP - logMinGDP

-can use natural or common log
-log is used to account for decreasing marginal utility of wealth
Find a country’s GDP per capita in PPP dollars
GDP per capita (local currency)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
PPP rate
non-market activities
Production activities -- usually conducted within the home -- for which there is no perfect substitute in the formal market. Examples: home cooking, child care, cleaning.

Some developed countries provide market-based household services (au pairs, maids) which inflates GNI despite there being no change in actual total production. In poor countries, more activities are home-based which negatively affects GNI.
Atlas conversion: GNI per capita in US$
Y(t) / N(t)
━━━━
e*(t)

Y(t) is GNI for time (t)
N(t) is population for time (t)
e*(t) is Atlas conversion constant for time (t)
Production method of measuring GDP
(output - intermed. consumption) + (taxes - subsidies)
Income method of measuring GDP
salaries + operating surplus
Expenditure method of measuring GDP
home consumption
govt. consumption
capital formed
+ (exports - imports)
━━━━━━━━━━
GNI
(gross national income)
GDP + money in - money out
GNDI
(gross national disposable income)
GNI + transfers in - transfers out

(a transfer of money involves no good or service exchange)
Potential Years of Life Lost (PYLL)
(∑x=0:L)(dₓ)(L - x)

x is average age of death (age grp x)
dₓ is number of deaths (age grp x)
L is potential life limit
Summation
"∑" or sigma.

example: ∑x=0:L means the sum of all values for x from 0 to L (inclusive).
Period Expected Years of Life Lost (PEYLL)
(∑x=0:1)(dₓ)(eₓ)

x is average age of death (age grp x)
dₓ is number of deaths (age grp x)
eₓ is LE (age grp x)
-cannot use to compare across countries or years
-makes current cohort-LE into goal LE
-thus, death in rich country is valued more than death in poor country, since LEs are different
Years of Life Lost (YLL)
∑dₓe*ₓ

d is # deaths at age x
e* is standardized LE at age x
Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY)
YLL + YLD
Years Lost to Disability (YLD)
I ∗ DW ∗ L

I is number of incidents
DW is disability weight
L is years lived with disability
Mortality based indicators
-Crude death rate (CDR)
-Age standardized death rate
-infant mortality rate (IMR)
-under 5 mortality rate (U5MR)
-life expectancy at birth (LE0)
-case fatality rate by disease
Approaches to defining health status
1. Descriptivist; value-neutral, objective
2. Normativist; goal-oriented, evaluative, culturally relative
Realized Potential Life Years (RePLY)
Like PYLL, but
1. take out unavoidable deaths, and
2. find PYLL for each cause of death, sex group, and age group
Summary Measures of Population Health (SMPH)
SMPH consider Ⓐ health, Ⓑ morbidity, and Ⓒ mortality. Can draw survivorship curve showing these three group within age/sex cohorts.
Health Expectancy (SMPH 1)
Ⓐ + fⒷ
Or: healthy years expected + (a function of)unhealthy years expected
Health Gap (SMPH 2)
Ⓒ +gⒷ
Or: death years expected + (a different function of)unhealthy years expected
Discounting future outcomes
For each year "y" from now, divide life-years saved in that year by (1.03)ʸ
