概括
许多菲律宾裔美国人并不认为自己是亚洲人,有些人更喜欢太平洋岛民 (PI) 或"其他"类别. 准确的调查方法对于了解菲律宾裔美国人的独特需求至关重要.
科学领域:
- 公共卫生 公共卫生
- 社会学 社会学 社会学
- 人口统计学 人口统计学
背景情况:
- 美国管理和预算办公室 (OMB) 正式将菲律宾裔美国人归类为更广泛的"亚洲"种族群体.
- 然而,很大一部分菲律宾裔美国人可能不认同这一类别,经常选择"太平洋岛民" (PI) 或"其他"分类.
- 这种差异凸显了人口统计数据收集中的潜在不准确性及其对了解社区需求的影响.
研究的目的:
- 调查加利福尼亚州的菲律宾裔美国人在多大程度上选择"太平洋岛民"或"其他"种族类别而不是"亚裔".
- 根据他们自己选择的种族类别分析菲律宾裔美国人的人口统计特征.
- 为不同的种族群体提供更准确的数据收集策略.
主要方法:
- 来自2019年,2020年和2021年的加州健康访谈调查 (CHIS) 数据的分析.
- 包括那些认为自己是太平洋岛民并用"菲律宾人"写的参与者,选择"亚洲人"并指定"菲律宾人",或选择"其他"并用"菲律宾人".
- 检查写入响应的详细种族和种族数据.
主要成果:
- 在1859名菲律宾受访者中,8.8%的受访者认为自己是太平洋岛民,85.2%的受访者认为自己是亚洲人,6.1%的受访者认为自己是"其他".
- 与那些认为自己是亚洲人相比,认为自己是PI的菲律宾受访者更有可能也认为自己是拉丁裔/西班牙裔,年龄较大,并且是美国公民.
- 这些发现强调了菲律宾裔美国人人口中的异质性.
结论:
- 在调查中将菲律宾裔美国人从"亚裔"类别分离出来,对于准确识别和解决他们的特定需求至关重要.

Stratified Sampling Method
11.7K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.

One-Way ANOVA: Equal Sample Sizes
3.1K
One-Way ANOVA can be performed on three or more samples with equal or unequal sample sizes. When one-way ANOVA is performed on two datasets with samples of equal sizes, it can be easily observed that the computed F statistic is highly sensitive to the sample mean.
Different sample means can result in different values for the variance estimate: variance between samples. This is because the variance between samples is calculated as the product of the sample size and the variance between the...

Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. Data are the result of sampling from a population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population.
Convenience sampling is a non-random method of sample selection; this method selects individuals that are easily accessible and may result in biased data. For example, a marketing...

Wilcoxon Signed-Ranks Test for Median of Single Population
74
The Wilcoxon signed-rank test for the median of a single population is a nonparametric test used to evaluate whether the median of a population differs from a specified value. Unlike parametric tests, it does not require data to follow a normal distribution, making it suitable for non-normal or small samples. The test begins by calculating the difference (d) between each observation and the hypothesized median. The absolute values of these differences are ranked in ascending order, with ties...

Cross-Sectional Research
11.1K
In cross-sectional research, a researcher compares multiple segments of the population at the same time. If they were interested in people's dietary habits, the researcher might directly compare different groups of people by age. Instead of following a group of people for 20 years to see how their dietary habits changed from decade to decade, the researcher would study a group of 20-year-old individuals and compare them to a group of 30-year-old individuals and a group of 40-year-old...

Sign Test for Median of Single Population
68
In general, the sign test serves as a nonparametric method to test hypotheses about the median of a single population when the data does not follow a known distribution. This simplicity makes it particularly useful for small sample sizes or when the assumptions of parametric tests cannot be met. The process begins with identifying a null hypothesis, typically stating that the population median equals a specific value. The alternative hypothesis could be that the median is either not equal to,...
