Notes: Composite scores of dimensions are calculated as the mean values of standardized indicators. A positive score indicates that the average value is above the mean, and a negative score indicates below the mean. The minimum and maximum values in Table 2 are the lowest and highest scores recorded for each dimension. The range is the measure of the absolute difference between the minimum and maximum values
