This report will describe approaches for collecting, analyzing, and reporting race and ethnicity information in nutrition education and behavior research, practice, and policy to advance health equity. Race and ethnicity information is used to describe study participants and compare nutrition and health-related outcomes. Depending on the study design, race and ethnicity categories are often defined by the research question or other standardized approaches. Participant self-reported data are more acceptable than researcher adjudicated identification data, which can add bias and/or error. Valid methods to collect, use, and report race and ethnicity information are foundational to publication quality, findings of value, contribution to the knowledge base, and health equity.
本报告将描述在营养教育、行为研究、实践及政策中收集、分析和报告种族与族裔信息以促进健康公平的方法。种族与族裔信息用于描述研究参与者，并比较营养及与健康相关的结果。根据研究设计，种族与族裔类别通常由研究问题或其他标准化方法定义。参与者自我报告的数据比研究者判定的识别数据更可接受，后者可能会增加偏差和/或误差。收集、使用和报告种族与族裔信息的有效方法是出版物质量、有价值的研究结果、对知识库的贡献以及健康公平的基础。
