此前对美国环境不平等的研究主要集中在空气污染物暴露方面的种族/民族差异。很少有人应用类别内框架，这使得能够通过检查亚组来确定组内差异。我们应用这个框架检查了美国五个种族/民族类别中26个祖先/民族血统群体之间的暴露差异。数据来自美国人口普查、美国社区调查和国家空气毒物评估。我们计算了居民暴露在有害空气污染物中的全国人口加权终身癌症风险(LCR)得分。结果显示，多米尼加裔、埃塞俄比亚裔和索马里裔美国人的总LCR得分最高，分别为每100万人53.1、49.2和48.3例估计的额外癌症病例。利用类别内框架，能够根据种族/族裔环境不平等符合广泛的同质类别这一传统假设，对不同的风险进行定性。类别内研究可以通过确定环境不利的社会人口群体，为干预措施提供信息。
Previous studies of US environmental inequalities have focused on racial/ethnic differences in air pollutant exposure. Few have applied an intracategorical framework, which enables the identification of within-group differences through the examination of subgroups. We applied this framework to examine exposure disparities between 26 ancestry/ethnic origin groups within five US racial/ethnic categories. Data come from the US Census, American Community Survey, and National Air Toxics Assessment. We calculated national population-weighted lifetime cancer risk (LCR) scores from residential exposure to hazardous air pollutants. Results showed that Americans of Dominican, Ethiopian, and Somalian descent have the highest total LCR scores at 53.1, 49.2, and 48.3 estimated excess cases of cancer per one million people, respectively. Use of the intracategorical framework enabled characterization of disparate risks that would be overlooked based on the conventional assumption that racial/ethnic environmental inequalities conform to broad, homogenous categories. Intracategorical studies can inform interventions by identifying environmentally-disadvantaged socio-demographic groups.
