Prevalence estimates for the school population are taken from national school surveys or the ESPAD project. Due to uncertainty of data collection procedures, Latvia data may not be comparable.
- Prevalence estimates for the general population refer to Flanders only. ↩
- Prevalence estimates for the general population refer to England and Wales only. ↩
- Age range for prevalence estimates in the general population: 18–64, 18–34. ↩
- Age range for prevalence estimates in the general population: 16–64, 16–34. ↩
- First-time and previously treated entrants are available only for two of the three data sources available in Sweden and, therefore, not comparable with data for all entrants. ↩
