The development, validation and application of the Swiss-SEP index consisted of the following five steps: (1) the definition of neighbourhoods, with moving boundaries, around each of the 1.27 million buildings recorded in the 2000 census; (2) the characterisation of the socioeconomic standing of these neighbourhoods based on median rent, education and occupation of household heads and household crowding; (3) the construction of the index by combining the loadings of the first component from principle component analysis (PCA); (4) the validation of the index using independent data on the financial situation of households and (5) the analysis of associations between the Swiss-SEP index and all-cause and cause-specific mortality in the adult population resident in Switzerland.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
