Table A.5. Geographic Region Distribution: EQ-i 2.0 Normative Sample

The following table summarizes the geographic region distribution of the EQ-i 2.0 normative sample along with Census information. Ideally, the normative sample should show region proportions similar to the Census. The EQ-i 2.0 normative sample showed percentages within 2% for each region, suggesting it is very similar to the Census.
