Population and inclusion
Only records eligible for the selected reporting period, quality rule and consent state enter aggregation. Deleted, withdrawn or structurally invalid records are excluded.
Annual report Method version 2026.08.03
How the annual report is built
The report describes consenting platform users; it is not a representative prevalence study of all children in Turkey.
Privacy suppression
Every published subgroup must contain at least 10 eligible people. Smaller cells are suppressed; they are not shown as zero.
Version and reproducibility
The method version, report period and variable definitions are pinned. A material rule change requires a new version and change note.
