Description topics
- Functional limitations
- Functional limitations
Functional limitations (physical) are observed by means of 3 groups of questions:
a. The OECD indicator for persons in the age category of 12 years or older.
b. The ADL (Activities of Daily Living) indicator for persons in the age category of 55 years or older.
c. Temporary activity limitations and bed-days for persons of all ages.- Persons with a GALI limitation
- Percentage of persons that for at least the past 6 months are limited because of a health problem in activities people/children usually do. This internationally used and adjusted indicator for health limitations is called the GALI, which stands for Global Activity Limitation Indicator. This indicator is calculated for all persons 4 years and older.
In 2014, this indicator was calculated by use of 2 questions, in 2015 both questions are combined in 1 question. This had no effect on the outcome.
- Limitations OECD, 12 years or older
- The OECD indicator (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) in this table is based on 7 questions on abilities that people normally can perform, if necessary with glasses or a hearing aid. It does not deal with temporary problems.
1. Can you follow a conversation in a group of three or more persons? (with hearing aid, if needed)
2. Can you have a conversation with one other person? (with hearing aid, if needed)
3. Can you read the small print in the newspaper? (with glasses or contact lenses, if needed)
4. Can you recognise somebody's face at a distance of 4 metres? (with glasses or contact lenses, if needed)
5. Can you carry an object of 5 kilogrammes, for instance a shopping bag, over a distance of 10 metres?
6. Can you bend down from an upright position and pick up something from the floor?
7. Can you walk 400 metres without stopping? (with stick, if needed)
Answer categories to these questions are: 'without difficulty', 'with some difficulty', 'with a lot of difficulty', 'impossible'. The indicator scores 'yes' if the answer to at least 1 of the 7 questions is: 'with a lot of difficulty' or 'impossible'. The respondents are persons in the age category 12 years or older.- Persons with at least 1 limitation
- Percentage of persons with at least 1 OECD limitation. A respondent has a limitation if he or she answers ꞌwith a lot of difficultyꞌ or ꞌimpossibeꞌ to at least 1 of the 7 OECD questions.
- Limitations per person
- The average number of OECD limitations per person in the population of 12 years or older, measured by the OECD indicator.
- Limitations per person with limitation
- The average number of OECD limitations per person of 12 years or older with at least 1 limitation, measured by the OECD indicator.
- Persons with hearing limitation
- Percentage of persons of 12 years or older who answered ꞌyes, with a lot of difficultyꞌ or ꞌno, impossibleꞌ to at least 1 of the 2 questions on hearing (according to the OECD indicator).
- Persons with visual limitation
- Percentage of persons of 12 years or older who answered ꞌyes, with a lot of difficultyꞌ or ꞌno, impossibleꞌ to at least 1 of the 2 questions on eyesight (according to the OECD indicator).
- Persons with mobility limitation
- Percentage of persons of 12 years or older who answered ꞌyes, with a lot of difficultyꞌ or ꞌno, impossibleꞌ to at least 1 of the 3 questions on mobility limitation (according to the OECD indicator).

The 4 possible answers to these questions are: 'without difficulty', 'with some difficulty', 'with a lot of difficulty’, 'only with the help of others'. The first 3 questions have a fifth answer: 'not even with the help of others'. The indicator scores 'yes' if at least one of the answers to the above 10 questions is: 'with a lot of difficulty' or 'only with the help of others'. The questions were put to persons aged 55 years or older.- Persons with at least 1 limitation
- Percentage of persons of 55 years or older with at least 1 ADL limitation. A respondent is considered to have a limitation if he or she answers at least one of the 11 questions with 'impossible', 'with great difficulty' or 'not even with the help of others.
