See data table S6.1. Notes: The reference group is people’. Significance testing compares each ‘non-disabled impairment type with the reference group, and is indicated as follows: * significant difference at 95% level; ** significant difference at 99% level. Figures indicate the proportion of adults who are very or fairly worried about being the victim of crime. Percentage findings (%) are weighted; bases (n) are unweighted. Analysis by ethnicity shows that, in most ethnic groups, disabled people were more likely than non-disabled people to be worried about being the victim of crime in the most recent three-year period (2011/12–2013/14). Specifically, this applied to people in the White ethnic group (44.4 per cent compared with 32.2 per cent), the Mixed group (74.3 per cent compared with 43.2 per cent) and the Asian British or ‘Asian, other’ group (73.6 per cent compared with 64.7 per cent); see Table 4.8.
