The World standard population is based on the populations of 46 countries and was developed in 1960. It is used to produce world standardised rates. It is a much ‘younger’ population compared to the population of Scotland (and other Western European countries). However, as the World standard population is a very ‘young’ population, it is generally less appropriate for Scottish data than the European standard population and is only be used for particular purposes.
