Effect of Racial/Ethnic Misclassification of American Indians and Alaskan Natives on Washington State Death Certificates, 1989–1997
Objectives. This study examined effects of racial/ethnic misclassification of American Indians and Alaskan natives on Washington State death certificates. Methods. Probabilistic record linkage were used to match the 1989–1997 state death files to the Northwest Tribal Registry. Results. We identified matches for 2819 decedents, including 414 (14.7%) who had been misclassified as non–American Indians and Alaskan natives on the death certificates. T…
Improving Cancer Incidence Estimates for American Indians and Alaska Natives in the Pacific Northwest
In many disease registries, including cancer registries, misclassification of American Indian and Alaska Native (AI/AN) race is common. This type of misclassification threatens the validity of existing estimates of disease occurrence in this population.1–9 From a public health perspective, the underestimation of cancer incidence has a potentially great effect, as appropriate cancer control measures are less likely to be implemented in light of sp…
