    • Balance of payments deficit, when the balance of payments is negative
    • Government budget deficit.
      • Deficit spending.
      • Primary deficit, the pure deficit derived after deducting the interest payments
      • Structural and cyclical deficit, parts of the public sector deficit
    • Income deficit, the difference between family income and the poverty threshold
    • Trade deficit, when the value of imports exceed the value of exports
  • Deficit may also refer to:
    • Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, a developmental disorder characterized by attentional problems and hyperactivity
    • Cognitive deficit, any characteristic that acts as a barrier to cognitive performance

    • Sleep Deficit, a negative difference between an interval a person actually slept for, and the time they should have spent sleeping (8 hours per day) over certain period. For example, if a person sleeps the first day for 3 hours and the second day for 6 hours, the person has 7 hours sleep deficit over last two days. Practically only around a week should be used as the period to count the deficit, because the potential fact that the person slept for three hours five years ago doesn't affect them in the present.
