StatsNZ review of the standards for the gender question

At 91 we get a lot of questions about this question! StatsNZ have developed a flowchart that recognises best practice for questionaire design, regarding posing survey questions and collecting data about sex and gender. See the and the full report and findings.

The review was driven by unmet information needs, known issues with existing statistical standards, and significant community interest. Other New Zealand government agencies, including 91, are also seeking guidance on how to best collect such information across broader survey and administrative settings.

StatsNZ were already aware of some issues with the existing statistical standards, particularly limitations in adequately reflecting gender minorities and intersex people. These issues relate to limited options available for respondents to describe who they are and limitations on our ability to meet information needs for different populations by ensuring the data reported can be disaggregated where appropriate. The review of the sex and gender identity statistical standards seeks to address these issues, with a view to providing appropriate guidance for different contexts and information needs.

Statistical offices around the world are facing similar challenges regarding how best to collect information on these concepts, with fast-evolving societal and cultural understandings and languages. It is critical that StatsNZ ensure the statistical standards for sex and gender identity are contemporary, flexible and enduring, and able to meet information relevant to the New Zealand context.

This App developed in New Zealand, focuses on the CPI, working with price indices, change of base, time series in connection with the CPI, moving averages, trends, seasonality, and policy uses. The CPI is a measure used to adjust a timeseries for inflation. Price indices measure therateof price change of goods and services over time, usually published as either monthly or quarterly change. They are official statistics published by National Statistics Offices.The history of price indices varies from country to country and there are a number of factors that can affect prices.

This app explains and has questions about using CPI. The black tabs on the left (information) and right (uses and calculations) would be useful for teaching economic based timeseries analysis.

Eight monthly and quarterly time series datasets have been collected from Statistics New Zealand and have been customised in “Infoshare” to CSV files appropriate/adequate for iNZight. Seven are multiplicative and one is additive.

For each dataset the total data for the variables being analysed have been added. Model paragraphs as to how a professional statistician would describe the trend, seasonal, and remainder of the variables being compared have been added. There is also a paragraph that highlights comparisons and differences between the variables being analysed and the total data.

At the beginning of each time series resource the “Total” data for the variables that are being analysed have been included with no commentary. It has been used to see whether the variables that have been analysed have had an effect on the total. In addition, this enables users to provide their own commentaries about the “Total” data to test their knowledge.

At the end of each time series resource a set of notes on how to obtain the particular dataset from the Statistics New Zealand website as well as how to import and analyse the data in iNZight has been added. Also, for some of the time series datasets, a “useful links” section in the metadata is included whereby references have been used that have been used in model answers.

Census information helps determine how billions of dollars are spent in the community. It is needed for planning vital public services such as education, health, housing, and transport. Census data also provides information for community service funding. Businesses, councils, community groups, and iwi also use census information to plan for the future.

Statistics NZ are making big changes to the 2018 Census, to modernise how and what we collect. We hope you take the time to have a look at our products and look forward to working with you in the future to promote the importance of the census.

Dear Educator,

The census is the official count of people and dwellings in New Zealand. At Statistics NZ we are committed to working with community groups and service providers like you to make sure everyone can take part in the census and benefit from the information we produce. Students’ families will be involved in completing the next Census. Your role in educating students about what,how and why statistics are collected, and the integral part they play indecisionmaking cannot be overlooked.

The census data aims to inform and broaden our audience base and tell New Zealand’s statistical stories. Products from the latest are due to be released starting in May 2024.

Other products on our website that may be of interest include:

  • – which tell New Zealand’s statistical stories visually
  • – a tool that lets you create tables of the data from large datasets

Census information helps determine how billions of dollars are spent in the community. It is needed for planning vital public services such as education, health, housing, and transport. Census data also provides information for community service funding. Businesses, councils, community groups, and iwi also use census information to plan for the future.

Find statistics from the , and information about how we produce it. We have modernised how and what we collect. For example, in 2018, most people in New Zealand provided their information online. Your knowledge about the census and why it is important to New Zealand, plays an important part in helping us reach a range of audiences, particularly younger people who may not have heard about the census.

We hope you take the time to look at our and how communities use these. We look forward to working with you in the future to promote the importance of the census.
