很少有实证分析评估了自我报告的西班牙裔种族与从西班牙姓氏编码程序获得的种族之间的一致性。作者使用 4,918 名 12-74 岁西班牙裔和非西班牙裔个人的数据,这些人参与了 1979-1980 年和 1989-1990 年在北加州进行的横断面调查,对自我报告种族和姓氏编码种族之间的一致性进行了检验。在自我报告的西班牙裔人中,84. 1% 被编码为西班牙姓氏,而通过姓氏程序识别的人中有 77.9% 是自我报告的西班牙裔人。英语群体的错误分类率高于西班牙语群体,女性的错误分类率高于男性。讲英语的已婚和已婚女性在自我报告的种族和姓氏编码之间表现出最高的不一致。结果表明,西班牙语姓氏程序可以成为分析种族标识符不足的数据集的宝贵工具,特别是在西班牙语受访者比例较高的样本中。
Few empirical analyses have assessed the concordance between self-reported Hispanic ethnicity and ethnicity obtained from Spanish surname coding programs. Using data from 4,918 Hispanic and non-Hispanic individuals, aged 12-74, who participated in cross-sectional surveys conducted in Northern California during 1979-1980 and 1989-1990, The authors e-xamined agreement between self-reported and surname-coded ethnicity. Of self-reportedHispanics, 84. 1% were coded as Spanish surnamed and 77.9% ofthose identified by the surnameprogram were self-reportedHispanics. Misclassification was higher for English-speaking groups than for Spanish-speaking groups, and higher for females than for males. English-speaking married and previously married women showed the highest discordance between self-reported ethnicity and surname coding. Results suggest that Spanish surname programs can be a valuable tool for analyzing data sets with inadequate ethnic identifiers, especially in samples having a high proportion of Spanish-speaking respondents.
