OBJECTIVE
To determine whether current job is a reasonable surrogate for usual job.
METHODS
Data from the 2010 National Health Interview Survey were utilized to determine concordance between current and usual jobs for workers employed within the past year. Concordance was quantitated by kappa values for both simple and detailed industry and occupational groups. Good agreement is considered to be present when kappa values exceed 60.
RESULTS
Overall kappa values ± standard errors were 74.5 ± 0.5 for simple industry, 72.4 ± 0.5 for detailed industry, 76.3 ± 0.4 for simple occupation, 73.7 ± 0.5 for detailed occupation, and 80.4 ± 0.6 for very broad occupational class. Sixty-five of 73 detailed industry groups and 78 of 81 detailed occupation groups evaluated had good agreement between current and usual jobs.
CONCLUSIONS
Current job can often serve as a reliable surrogate for usual job in epidemiologic studies.
目的
确定当前工作是否可以合理替代通常的工作。
方法
利用 2010 年全国健康访谈调查的数据，确定过去一年内在职员工的当前工作与通常工作之间的一致性。简单和详细的行业和职业群体的kappa 值用于定量一致性。kappa 值超过 60 时被认为是良好的一致性。
结果
总体kappa 值±标准误差分别为简单行业 74.5±0.5，详细行业 72.4±0.5，简单职业 76.3±0.4，详细职业 73.7±0.5，非常广泛的职业类别 80.4±0.6。评估的 73 个详细行业组中有 65 个和 81 个详细职业组中有良好的当前工作与通常工作之间的一致性。
结论
在流行病学研究中，当前工作通常可以作为通常工作的可靠替代。
