Commentary
Secondary students were asked what type of hat they most often wore on a sunny day in summer.
In 2017, the most preferred type of hat worn in summer by secondary students surveyed were baseball caps (49.1%), wide brimmed hats (21.3%) and bucket hats (16.3%).
Please note that this indicator was updated in 2022 and replaces all previous versions.
The following estimates have a relative standard error between 25% and 50% and should be used with caution:
- 2017 persons who wear a legionnaire hat
- 2014 and 2017 persons who wear a sun-visor
- 2011, 2014 and 2017 females who wear a sun-visor.
The following estimates have not been published due to a relative standard error greater than 50% or small numbers:
- 2011 and 2014 persons who wear a legionnaire hat
- 2011, 2014 and 2017 males who wear a legionnaire hat
- 2011, 2014 and 2017 females who wear a legionnaire hat
- 2011, 2014 and 2017 males who wear a sun-visor.
For the purpose of reporting the Australian Secondary Students' Alcohol and Drug survey data on HealthStats, if the 95% confidence intervals of the estimates do not overlap, they are considered to be significantly different.
