2.4 Health and primary education. A healthy workforce is vital to a country’s competitiveness and productivity. Investment in the provision of health services is thus critical for clear economic, as well as moral, considerations (Sachs, 2001).
Health and primary education scores misalignment arose from the inhomogeneity and heterogeneity of the following fact: unavailability or the low quality of basic education, received by the population. Indeed, based on analysis of data of the Global Competitiveness Report 2009-2010 we obtain the following:
- mean is 5,22 score, and this corresponds the Kazakhstan (5,22) ranked 69th;
- mode is 6,22 score, and this corresponds Singapore ranked 3rd; Sweden ranked 4th; Netherlands ranked 10th and France ranked 17th;
- maximum is 6,46 score, and this corresponds Finland ranked 6th;
- minimum is 2,55 score, and this corresponds Chad ranked 131st. Then interval is 3,91 score, also note that Germany (24th) is 6,01; United States (35th) – 5,88; Turkey (74th) – 5,32 and Kazakhstan (80th) – 5,22 scores;
- skewness coefficient is -0,968, and this appropriate distribution of the health and primary education scores shift the mean significance to the left;
- kurtosis coefficient is 0,180, and this appropriate distribution relatively normal distribution is the small upright.
