How to compare HDI over time
Steps for checking HDI changes without ignoring method and period.
Compare HDI for the same area and method, then check whether the publication records methodological changes or revisions. Small differences should be read with the component indicators.
What the measure covers
Rank and change in value answer different questions.
HDI is a composite index combining three dimensions of human development. State it as an index value, not a percentage.
How to compare it
Use the same year, method, and geography. Read a change in the total with its health, education, and living-standard components.
Limits on conclusions
A national value simplifies variation across regions and population groups. Consult the source publication for detail and the full method.
