我们利用华盛顿州行为风险因素监测系统的数据，检查了对关于自我认同性取向的调查问题的不回答是否与种族和民族有关。调整后的多项Logistic回归结果显示，亚裔、西班牙裔和非裔美国人的无反应率高于非西班牙裔白人。需要开发衡量性取向的创新方法，以减少种族和族裔驱动的偏见，并将其纳入公共卫生调查。(我是J公共卫生。2013；103：67-69。DOI：10.2105/AJPH.2012.300835)
We examined whether nonresponse to the survey question on self-identified sexual orientation was associated with race and ethnicity, utilizing Washington State Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System data. The results of adjusted multinomial logistic regression indicated that the nonresponse rates of Asian Americans, Hispanics, and African Americans are higher than those of non-Hispanic Whites. Innovative ways of measuring sexual orientation to reduce racially and ethnically driven bias need to be developed and integrated into public health surveys.
