The relative index of inequality (RII) is a regression-based index which summarizes the magnitude of socio-economic status (SES) as a source of inequalities in health. RII is useful because it takes into account the size of the population and the relative disadvantage experienced by different groups. The disease outcome is regressed on the proportion of the population that has a higher position in the hierarchy. The RII is particularly valuable when comparing risk factors (independent variables) that are on very different scales (e.g. low SES, low IQ, cigarette smoking). The RII is calculated in the following way: 1. * Rank cases on each of the variables 2. * For tied ranks and for categorical variables, assign the mean rank 3. * Divide the ranks by the sample size, creating a value ranging from 0 to 1 (Wikipedia).
Solving an absolute value inequality using an and compound inequality
