nameDeprecated PhenX measure - ethnicity
descriptionQuestion asking the respondent to identify whether he/she is of Hispanic or Latino origin The United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB) standards for the classification of Federal data on race and ethnicity state that "race and ethnicity may be thought of in terms of social and cultural characteristics as well as ancestry." Ethnicity is used to stratify study populations and to associate those populations with physical, geographic, biological, social, and cultural characteristics (e.g., Dominican). Ethnicity is a social and epidemiological factor and individuals of some ethnicity are at greater risk for disease. By capturing the ethnicity of respondents the researcher will be able to identify those who are/aren't of Hispanic origin and will be able to stratify the study population accordingly.
