Detail Natality, 1979-1988
Natality 79-88 Dataset Names Detail Natality Public-Use Tape Files 1979 - 1988 Introduction The natality data file is maintained by calendar year. Beginning with 1985, the file contains data on a 100 percent basis from all reporting areas. As a result the weight field (tape location 208) contains a one for all records for years 1985-87. For States that submit 100 percent of their data, each record contains a one (1) in the weight field. For states that submit 50 percent of their data, each record contains a two (2) in the weight field. Natality tabulations, published by the National Center for Health Statistics/Division of Vital Statistics (NCHS/DVS), are by place of residence unless otherwise specified in the tables. Births to nonresidents of the United States (Foreign Residents) are excluded from these tabulations. However, tables by place of occurrence include births to foreign residents of the United States and totals differ from resident tables. If your totals differ from NCHS published figures, different handling of foreign residents may be the reason. Foreign residents can be identified by code 52 through 57 and 59 in tape locations 13-14. 1LIST OF DATA ELEMENTS AND TAPE LOCATIONS Tape Data Items Locations 1. General a. Data year 1 b.

Detail Marital Status Tape Field Location Size Item and Code Outline ________ _____ _____________________ 107 1 Detail Marital Status (Beginning with '80 data, National estimates of births to unmarried women are derived from two sources. For 41 states and the District of Columbia, marital status of mother is reported directly on the birth certificate; for the remaining 9 states which lack such as item, marital status is inferred from a comparison of the child's and parents' surnames. This procedure represents a substantial departure from the method used in previous years to prepare national estimates of births to unmarried women. The previous method assumed that the incidence of births to unmarried women in states with no direct question on marital status was the same as the incidence in reporting states in the same geographic division. Ratios of births to unmarried women were computed by race for the reporting states in each geographic division, applied to all births in the division, and then summed to obtain national estimates by race. The figures by race were summed to yield the totals for the US.) _____________________ 1 ... Married 2 ... Unmarried 9 ... Not stated 108.

Wyoming TECHNICAL APPENDIX Definition of Live Birth Every product of conception that gives a sign of life after birth, regardless of the length of the pregnancy, is considered a live birth. This concept is included in the definition set forth by the World Health Organization (1950, pp. 16-17) as follows: Live birth is the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception, irrespective of the duration of pregnancy, which, after such separation, breathes or shows any other evidence of life, such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the unbilical cord, or definite movement of voluntary muscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached; each product of such a birth is considered liveborn. This definition distinguishes in precise terms a live birth from a fetal death (see section on fetal deaths in the Technical Appendix of Volume II of Statistical Commission of the United Nations and the National Center for Health Statistics have adopted this definition (National Office of Vital Statistics, 1950, p.6; Statistical Office of the United Nations, 1953, p.6). History of Birth-Registration Area The national birth-registration area was proposed in 1850 and established in 1915. By 1933 all 48 States and the District of Columbia were participating in the registration system. The organized territories of Hawaii and Alaska were admitted in 1929 and 1950, respectively; data from these areas were prepared separately until they became States--Alaska in 1959 and Hawaii in 1960.At present the birth-registration system of the United States covers the 50 States, the District of Columbia, the independent registration area of New York City, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa,and the Trust Territory of the Pacific Islands. However, in the statistical tabulations, "United States" refers only to the aggregate of the 50 States (including New York City) and the District of Columbia.Tabulations for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam are shown separately in section 3 of this volume. The original birth-registration area of 1915 consisted of 10 States and the District of Columbia. The growth of this area is indicated in table 4-1. This table also presents for each year through 1932 the estimated midyear population of the United States and of those States included in the registra- tion system. Because of the growth of the area for which data have been collected and tabulated, a national series of geographically comparable data before 1933 can be obtained only by estimation. Annual estimates of births have been prepared by P. K. Whelpton (National Office of Vital Statistics, 1954) for the period 1909-34 (table 1-1). These estimates include adjustments both for under- registration and for States that were not part of the birth-registration area before 1933. Sources of Data Natality Statistics Natality statistics for 1979-1984 are based on information from two sources. Statistics for 45 States are based on the total file of records received on computer data tapes coded by the States and provided to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) through the Vital Statistics cooperative Program. Statistics for the remaining States (Arizona, California, Delaware, Georgia, and North Dakota) and the District of Columbia are based on information obtained from a 50-percent sample of microfilm copies of all live-birth certificates filed in these States. NCHS receives these tapes and microfilm copies from the registration offices of each State, the District of Columbia, and New York City. Records from the Virgin Islands are received in the form of microfilm copies of birth certificates; those from Guam are received as photocopies of original birth certificates; and those from Puerto Rico are received as computer tapes through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. Natality data for 1979-1984 for these areas are based on the total file of records. before 1977 Puerto Rican records were sampled on a 50-percent basis. information for previous years for these three areas is published in the annual vital statistics reports of the Department of Health of the Common- dealth of Puerto Rico, the Department of Public Health of the Virgin Islands, the Department of Public Health and Social Services of the Government of Guam, and in selected Vital Statistics of the United States annual reports. When the microfilmed data are received from the various registration offices, the information on the sampled microfilm records is coded onto magnetic tape for the computer, which then edits all the taped records and produces tabulations of natality statistics adjusted for sampling factors. U.S. natality data are limited to births occuring within the United States, including those occuring the U.S. residents and nonresidents. Births to nonresidents of the United States are excluded from all tabulations by place of residence beginning in 1970. (See "Classification by occurence and residence" for further discussion.) Births occuring to U.S. citzens outside the United States are not included in any tabulations in this report. Similarly the data for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam are limited to births registered in these areas. Beginning in 1985 natality statistics for all States and the District of Columbia are based on information from the total file of records for these areas. The information is received on computer data tapes coded by the States and provided to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. NCHS receives these tapes from the registration offices of the States, the District of Columbia, and New York City. Data for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam for 1985 are also based on information from the total file of records. Information from the Virgin Islands and Guam is received on microfilm copies of original birth certificates; information from Puerto Rico is received on computer tapes through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. Birth statistics presented in this report for years before 1951 and for 1955 are based on the total file of birth records. Statistics for 1951-54, 1956-66, and 1968-71 are based on 50-percent samples with the exception of data for Guam and the Virgin Islands, which are based on all records filed. During the processing of the 1967 data, the sampling rate was reduced from 50 percent to 20 percent. For details of this procedure and its consequences for the 1967 data, see Vital Statistics of the United States, 1967, Volume I, pages 3-9 to 3-11. From 1972 to 1984, statistics are based on all records filed in the States submitting computer tapes and on a 50-percent sample of records in all other States. For Puerto Rico beginning in 1977, statistics are based on all records filed. Information for years prior to 1970 for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam is published in the annual vital statistics' reports of the Depart- ment of Health of the Commonwealth of Puerto,the Department of Public Health of the Virgin Islands, the Department of Public Health and Social Services of the Government of Guam, and in selected Vital Statistics of the United States annual reports. U.S. natality data are limited to birth occurring within the United States, including those occurring to U.S. residents and nonresidents. Births to nonresidents of the United States have been excluded from all tabulations by place of residence beginning in 1970. (See "Classification by occurrence and residence" for further discussion.) Births occurring to U.S. citizens outside the United States are not included in any tabulations in this report. Similarly the data for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam are limited to births registered in these areas. Natality statistics for 1981 are based on information from two sources. Statistics for 44 States are based on the total file of records received on Computer data tapes coded by the States and provided to the National Center or Health Statistics (NCHS) through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. Statistics for the remaining States (Arizona, California, Delaware, Georgia, New Mexico, and North Dakota) and the District of Columbia are based on information obtained from a 50-percent sample of microfilm copies of all live-birth certificates filed in these States. The Center receives these copies and microfilm copies from the registration offices of each State, the District of Columbia, and New York City. Records from the Virgin Islands are received in the form of microfilm copies of birth certificates;those from Guam are received as photocopies of original birth certificates; and those from Puerto Rico are received as computer tapes through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. Natality data for 1981 for these areas are based on the total file of records. Before 1977 Puerto Rican records were sampled on a 50-percent basis.Information for previous years for these three areas is published in the annual vital statis- tics reports of the Department of Health of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Department of Health of the Virgin Islands, the Department of Public Health and Social Services of the Government of Guam, and in selected Vital Statistics of the United States annual reports. When the microfilmed data are received from the various registration offices, the information on the sampled microfilm records is coded onto magnetic tape for input into the computer, which when edits all the taped records and produces tabulations of natality statistics adjusted for sampling factors. U.S. natality data are limited to births occurring within the United States, including those occurring to U.S. residents and nonresidents. Births to nonresidents of the United States are excluded from all tabulations by place of residence beginning in 1970. (See section on Classification by occurrence and residence for further discussion.) Births occurring to U.S. citizens outside the United States are not included in any tabulations in this report.Similarly the data for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam are limited to births registered in these areas. Standard Certificate of Live Birth The U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth, issued by the Public Health Service, has served for many years as the principal means of attaining uniformity in the content of the documents used to collect information on births in the United States. It has been modified in each State to the extent required by the particular State's needs or by special provisions of the State's vital statistics law.However, most State certificates conform closely in content to the standard certificate. The first standard certificate of birth was developed in 1900. Since then it has been revised periodically by the national vital statistics agency through consultation with State health officers and registrars; Federal agencies concerned with vital statistics; national, State, and county medical societies; and others working in the fields of public health, social welfare, demography, and insurance. This procedure has assured careful evaluation of each item for its current and future usefulness for legal, medical, demographic, and research purposes. New items have been added when necessary, and old items have been modified to ensure better reporting or, in some cases, dropped when their usefulness appeared to be limited. 1978 revision--Effective January 1, 1978, a revised U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth replaced the 1968 revision. Changes on the 1978 standard certificate include a new item on 1- and 5-minute Apgar scores, the deletion of the item on birth injuries, and revisions of the items on legitimacy status and previous pregnancies. The item on legitimacy status was changed to read "Is mother married?" This is now a factual piece of information about the mother rather than an attribute ascribed to the child, and the person completing the record does not have the responsibility for making what may be a legal determination. The item on previous deliveries was changed to pregnancy history and expanded to include two categories of fetal loss,before and after 20 completed weeks of gestation.This change provides information on two groups that are of interest in medical research and emphasizes the fact that all previous fetal losses should be included, both spontaneous and induced, regardless of length of gestation. For further discussion see individual sections for each item. Classification of Data General Information One of the principal values of vital statistics data is realized through the presentation of rates that are computed by relating the vital events of a class to the population of a similarly defined class. Vital statistics and population statistics must therefore be classified according to similarly defined systems and tabulated in comparable groups. Even when the variables common to both, such as geographic area, age, race, and sex, have been similarly classified and tabulated,differences between the enumeration method of obtaining population data and the registration method of obtaining vital statistics data may result in significant discrepancies. The general rules used to classify geographic and personal items for live births are set forth in "Vital Statistics Classification and Coding Instructions for Live Birth Records, 1985," NCHS Instruction Manual, Part 3a. The classification of certain important items is discussed in the following pages. Classification by Occurrence and Residence All but three tabulations for States and other areas within the United States are by place of mother's residence. These three tabulations (1-49, 1-50, and 2-1) show births by place of occurrence. Births to U.S. residents occurring outside this country are not reallocated to the United States. In tabulations by place of residence, births occurring within the United States to U.S. citizens and to resident aliens are allocated to the usual place of residence of the mother in the United States as reported on the birth certificate. Beginning in 1970, births to nonresidents of the United States occurring in the United States have been excluded from these tabulations.From 1966 to 1969, births occurring in the United States to mothers who were nonresidents of the United States were considered as births to residents of the exact place of occurrence;in 1964 and 1965 all such births were allocated to "balance of county" of occurrence even if the birth had occurred in a city. The change in coding beginning in 1970 to exclude births to nonresidents of the United States from residence data significantly affects the compara- bility of data with years before 1970 only for Texas. In 1986 births to resi- dents of Mexico constituted 83.0 percent of the 4,148 nonresident births in the United States.No evaluation of the effect of the change in procedure between 1965 and 1966 has been made. For the total United States the tabulations by place of residence and by place of occurrence are not identical. Births to nonresidents of the United States are included in data by place of occurrence but excluded from data by place of residence, as previously indicated. Residence error--A nationwide test of birth-registration completeness in 1950 provided measures of residence error for natality statistics. According to this test,errors in residence reporting for the country as a whole tend to overstate the number of births to residents of urban areas and to understate the number of births to residents of other areas. This tendency has assumed special importance because of a concommitant development--the increased utilization of hospitals in cities by residents of nearby places--with the result that a number of births are erroneously reported as having occurred to residents of urban areas. Another factor that contributes to this overstatement of urban births is the customary procedure of using "city" addresses for persons living outside the city limits. Incomplete residence--Beginning in 1973 where only the State of residence is reported with no city or county specified, and the State named is different from the State of occurrence, the birth has been allocated to the largest city of the State of residence.Before 1973 such births were allocated to the exact place of occurrence. Geographic Classification The rules followed in the classification of geographic areas for live births are contained in the instruction manual mentioned previously. The geographic code structure for 1985 is given in another manual, "Vital Records Geographic Classification, 1982." United States--In the statistical tabulations, "United States" refers only to the aggregate of the 50 States and the District of Columbia. Alaska has been included in the U.S. tabulations since 1959 and Hawaii since 1960. Standard metropolitan statistical areas--The standard metropolitan statistical areas (SMSA's) used in this report are those established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (1981a, pp. 1-20) from final 1980 census population counts and used by the U.S. Bureau of the Census except in the New England States. Except in the New England States, an SMSA is a county or a group of contiguous counties containing either a city of 50,000 inhabitants or more or an urbanized area of 50,000 with a total metropolitan population of at least 100,000. In addition to the county or counties containing such a city or urbanized area, contiguous counties are included in an SMSA if, according to specified criteria, they are essentially metropolitan in character and are socially and economically integrated with the central city or urbanized area (U.S. Office of Management and Budget, 1981b, p. 420). In the New England States, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget uses towns and cities rather than counties as geographic components of SMSA's. The National Center for Health Statistics cannot, however, use the SMSA classification for these States because its data are not coded to identify all towns. Instead, the New England County Metropolitan Areas (NECMA's) are used. These areas are established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (1975, pp. 89-90; 1981b, p. 420) and are made up of county units. Metropolitan and nonmetropolitan counties--Independent cities and counties included in SMSA's or NECMA's are included in data for metropolitan counties; all other counties are classified as nonmetropolitan. Population-size groups--Beginning in 1982 vital statistics data for cities and certain other urban places have been classified according to the popula- tion enumerated in the 1980 Census of Population. Data are available for indi- vidual cities and other urban places of 10,000 or more population. Data for the remaining areas not separately identified are shown in the tables under the heading "Balance of area" or "Balance of county." Classification of areas for the years 1970-81 was determined by the population enumerated in the 1970 Census of Population. As a result of changes in the enumerated population in previous reports are no longer included, and a number of other urban places have been added. Urban places other than incorporated cities for which vital statistics data are shown in this report include the following: o Each town in New England, New York, and Wisconsin and each township in Michigan, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania that had no incorporated municipality as a subdivision and had either 25,000 inhabitants or more or a population of 10,000 to 25,000 and a density of 1,000 persons or more per square mile. o Each county in States other than those indicated above that had no incorporated municipality within its boundary and had a density of 1,000 persons or more per square mile. (Arlington County, Virginia, is the only county classified as urban under this rule.) o Each place in Hawaii with 10,000 or more population, as there are no incorporated cities in the State. Race or National Origin The race or national origin shown in a tabulation is that of the newborn child. Classification of the child's race or national origin for statistical purposes is based on the race or national origin of the parents. The categories are "White," "Black," "American Indian," "Chinese," "Japanese," "Hawaiian," "Filipino," "Other Asian or Pacific Islander," and "Other." Before 1978 the category "Other Asian or Pacific Islander" was not identified separately but included with "Other" races. The separation of this category allows identification of the category "Asian or Pacific Islander" by combining the new category "Other Asian or Pacific Islander" with Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian, and Filipino. If the parents are of different races or national origins, the following rules are used to assign race or national origin to the newborn child. When only one parent is white, the child is assigned the other parent's race or national origin. When neither parent is white, the child is assigned the father's race or national origin with one exception; if the mother is Hawaiian or part-Hawaiian, the child is assigned to Hawaiian. If race is missing for one parent, the child is assigned the race of the parent for whom race is given. When information on race is missing for both parents, the race of the child is considered not stated and the birth is allocated according to rules discussed in the section "Race or national origin not stated." The terms "race" and "specified race or national origin" indicate the detail of classification of this variable. For 11 tabulations for which information is not available separately for the black population, the racial categories shown are "White" and "All other." All other tabulations by race" show data separately for the black population. Tabulations by specified race or national origin" are the most detailed, showing all categories of the classification. In most tables the less detailed classifi- cation of "race" is used. White--The category "White" comprises births reported as white, and births where race is reported as Hispanic. Before 1964, all births for which race or national origin was not stated were classified as white. Beginning in 1964, changes in the procedures for allocating race when race or national origin is not stated have changed the composition of this category. (See discussion on "Race or national origin not stated.") All other--The category "All Other" comprises black, American Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian and part-Hawaiian, Filipino, other Asian or Paci- fic Islander including Asian Indian, and "Other." Aleuts and Eskimos are included in "American Indian." If the race or national origin of an Asian parent is ill-defined or not clearly identifiable with one of the categories used in the classification (for example, if "Oriental" is entered), an attempt is made to determine the specific race from the entry for place of birth. If the birthplace is China, Japan, or the Philippines, the parent's race is assigned to that category. When race cannot be determined from the birthplace, it is assigned to the category "Other Asian or Pacific Islander." Race or national origin not stated--The race of a child is considered not stated in those cases in which information for both parents is missing.Before 1964 all such cases were tabulated as white. From 1964 through 1968 the race of the child was allocated by the computer as follows. If the race on the preceding record were white the assignment was to white; otherwise the assignment was to black. Beginning in 1969 the race of the child has been allocated electronically according to the specific race of the child on the preceding record. Consequently, some of the not-stated frequencies that had previously been assigned to the black category may now be assigned to one of the other race or national origin categories. Nearly all statistics by race or national origin for the United States as a whole in 1962 are affected by a lack of information for New Jersey,which did not report parents' race in those years. Birth rates by race for those years are computed on a population base that excludes New Jersey.(For the method of estimating the U.S. population by age, sex, and race excluding New Jersey in 1962 and 1963, see Vital Statistics of the United States, 1963, Volume I, page 4-8.) Estimates of births to unmarried mothers by race for the United States, which include special estimates for New Jersey for 1962 and 1963, have been prepared and are shown in table 1-31. Interracial parentage--Because of interracial parentage, the number of births for each racial or national origin group classified according to the child's race by the preceding rules differs from the number of births classified according to the mother's race. For white and black births, the differences are relatively small. In 1986, there were 1.6 percent more white mothers than there were births classified as white and 4.5 percent fewer black mothers than births classified as black. The number of mothers of other racial and national origin groups was considerably lower than the number of births classified according to the child's race: American Indian, 19.9 percent; Chinese, 8.3 percent; Japanese, 17.8 percent; Hawaiian, 30.8 percent; Filipino, 5.6 percent; Other Asian and Pacific Islander, 7.7 percent; and Other, 16.3 percent. Completeness of registration by race-The quality of birth data by race a variable in that birth registration is higher for the white group than for he all other group. In 1981 birth-registration completeness was estimated to e 99.4 percent for white births and 98.6 percent for all other births. The ost recent figures for specified racial or national origin groups are from he 1950 birth-registration completeness test. In that year the registration ndians, 85.1 percent; and for others, including Chinese and Japanese, 97.4 ercent. These figures are probably higher for 1981, but more precise stimates are unavailable. Age of Mother The birth certificate asks for "Age (at time of this birth)." The age of the mother is edited for upper and lower limits. When mothers are reported to be under 10 years of age or 50 years and over, the age of the mother is considered not stated and is assigned as described below. Age-specific birth rates shown in this report are based on populations of women by age, which are prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. In census years the decennial census counts are used. In intercensal years, estimates of the population of women by age are published by the U.S. Bureau of the Census in Current Population Reports. The 1980 Census of Population derived age in completed years as of April 1, 1980, from the responses to questions on age at last birthday and month and year of birth, with the latter given preference. In the 1960 and the 1970 Census of Population, age was also derived from month and year of birth. "Age in completed years" was asked in censuses before 1960. This was nearly the equivalent of the birth certificate question, which the 1950 test of matched birth and census records confirms by showing a high degree of consistency in the reporting of age in these two sources (National Vital Statistics Division, 1962). Median age of mother--Median age is the value that divides an age distribution into two equal parts, one-half of the values being less and one-half being greater. Median ages of mothers for 1960 to the present have been computed from birth rates for 5-year age groups rather than from birth frequencies. This method eliminates the effects of changes in the age composition of the childbearing population over time. Changes in the median ages from year to year can thus be attributed solely to changes in the age-specific birth rates. No stated age of mother--Beginning in 1964 birth records with age of mother not stated have been allocated according to the age appearing on the record previously processed for a mother of identical race and having the same total-birth order (total of fetal deaths and live births). In 1963 birth records with age not stated were allocated according to the age appearing on the record previously processed for a mother of identifical race and parity (number of live births). For 1960-62, not stated and unknown ages were distributed in proportion to the known ages for each racial group.Before 1960 this was done for age-specific birth rates but not for the birth frequency tables, which showed a separate category for age not stated. Age of Father Age of father is coded as stated on the birth certificate. If the age is under 10 years, it is considered not stated and grouped with those cases for which age is not stated on the certificate. Information on father's age is often missing on birth certificates of children born to unwed mothers, greatly inflating the number of "not stated" in all tabulations by age of father. In computing birth rates by age of father, births tabulated as age of father not stated are distributed in the same proportions as births with known age within each 5-year age classification of the mother. This procedure is done separately by race. The resulting distributions are summed to form a compo- site frequency distribution which is the basis for computing birth rates by age of father.This procedure avoids the distortion in rates that would result if the relationship between age of mother and age of father were disregarded. Live-Birth Order and Parity Birth order and parity classifications shown in this volume refer to the total number of live births the mother has had including the 1986 birth. Fetal deaths are excluded. Birth order indicates what number the present birth represents; for example, a baby born to a mother who has had two previous live births (even if one or both are not now living) has a birth order of three. Parity indicated how many live births a mother has had. Before delivery a mother having her first baby has a parity of zero and a mother having her third baby has a parity of two. After delivery, the mother of a baby who is a first live birth has a parity of one and the mother of a baby who is a third live birth has a parity of three. Birth order and parity are determined from two items on the birth certificate, "Live births--now living" and "Live births--now dead." Not stated birth order--Before 1969 if both of these items were blank,the birth was considered a first birth. Beginning in 1969, births for which the pregnancy history items were not completed have been tabulated as birth order not stated. As a result of this revised procedure, 22,686 births in 1969 that would have been assigned to the "First birth order" category under the old rules were assigned to the "Not stated" category. All births tabulated in the "Not stated birth order" category are excluded from the computation of percents. In computing birth rates by live-birth order, births tabulated as birth order not stated are distributed in the same proportion as births of known live-birth order. Dates of Last Live Birth and Last Fetal Death Date of last live birth and date of last fetal death were added to the U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth in 1968 for the purpose of providing information on child spacing and pregnancy intervals. Tabulations of these items were presented for the first time in 1969. In 1978 the item "Date of last fetal death" was reworded to "Date of last other termination" to ensure inclusion of both spontaneous fetal deaths and induced terminations of pregnancy.In 1986 this information was obtained from all States except Texas. Intervals since last live birth and last other termination--These data are computed from the date of birth, date of last live birth, and date of last other termination. The interval since last live birth is the difference between the date of last live birth and the date of present birth;the interval since last other termination is the difference between the date of last other termination and the date of present birth. For an interval to be computed, both the month and year of the last live birth or the last other termination must be valid. These intervals are computed only for events to mothers who have had at least one previous delivery. Births for which the interval since last live birth or last other termination is not stated are excluded from the computation of percents and means. Interval since last pregnancy and outcome of last pregnancy--These data are derived from the computed intervals since the last live birth and the last other termination. Before 1982,the outcome of the last pregnancy was considered not stated if the interval since either the last live birth or the last fetal death was not computed because only the year of the event was recorded. Beginning in 1982, the outcome of the last pregnancy has been derived for such records if the year of the last live birth and the year of the last fetal death were not the same. The effect of this revised procedure is to reduce substantially the number of records with outcome of last pregnancy not stated. In addition, for such records, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy is determined if both the month and year were reported for the event immediately preceding the current live birth. Before 1982, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was considered not stated for such births. Births for which the interval since last pregnancy is not stated are excluded from the computation of percents and means. Zero interval--An interval of zero months since the last live birth or fetal death indicates the second born of a set of twins, the second or third born of a set of triplets, and so forth. Births with an interval of zero months are excluded from the computation of mean intervals. Educational Attainment Data on the educational attainment of both parents were collected beginning in 1968 and tabulated for publication in 1969 for the first time. In 1986, data on education were obtained from 47 States and the District of Columbia,as indicated in table A. The educational attainment of either parent is defined as "the number of years of school completed." Only those years completed in "regular" schools, that is, a formal educational system of public schools or the equivalent in accredited private or parochial schools, are counted. Business or trade schools, such as beauty and barber schools, are not considered "regular" schools for the purposes of this item. No attempt has been made to convert years of school completed in foreign school systems, ungraded school systems and so forth, to equivalent grades in the American school system.Such entries are included in the category "Not stated." Persons who have completed only a partial year in high school or college are tabulated as having completed the highest preceding grade. For those certificates on which a specific degree is stated, years of school completed is coded to the level at which the degree is most commonly attained; for example,persons reporting B.A., A.B., or B.S. degrees are considered to have completed 16 years of school. Education not stated--The category "Not stated" includes all records in reporting areas for which there is no information on years of school completed as well as all records for which the information provided is not compatible with coding specifications. Births tabulated as education not stated are excluded from the computations of percents. Marital Status Beginning with 1980 data, national estimates of births to unmarried women have been derived from two sources. For 41 states and the District of Columbia, marital status of the mother was reported directly on the birth certificate in 1986 (see table A); for the remaining 9 States that lack this item,marital status was inferred from a comparison of the child's and parents' surnames.This procedure represents a substantial departure from the previous method used to prepare national estimates, which assumed that the incidence of births to unmarried women in States with no direct question on marital status was the same as the incidence in reporting States in the same geographic division. Ratios of births to unmarried women were computed by race for the reporting States in each geographic division, applied to all births in the division, and then summed to obtain national estimates by race.The figures by race were summed to yield the totals for the United States. The new method attempts to use related information on the birth certificate to improve the quality of national data on this topic, as well as to provide data for the individual nonreporting States. Beginning in 1980, a birth in a nonreporting State has been classified as occurring to a married woman if the parents' surnames are the same or if the child's and father's surnames are the same and the mother's current surname cannot be obtained from the informant item of the birth certificate. A birth is classified as occurring to an unmarried woman if the father's name is missing, if the parents' surnames are different, or if the father's and child's surnames are different and the mother's current surname is missing. Because of the continued increase in all measures of nonmarital childbearing in 1986, the intensive evaluation of the national data which was performed in 1985 was repeated in 1986. There has been continuing concern that the new method,incorporating data based on a comparison of surnames, might overstate the number of births to unmarried women, particularly among women who retained their maiden surname as their legal surname after marriage.The evaluation included comparisons of trends in all measures of births to unmarried mothers between 1980, when the new method was first put into use, and 1986. Trends in States with a marital status item on the birth certificate were compared with trends in those States providing inferential data based on a comparison of surnames.Comparisons were made for white and black births separately and by age of mother. The results were remarkably similar for both data sets. Nonmarital births increased at virtually the same rate in each set of States.The findings were similar for white and black women and for the various age-of-mother groups. No adjustments are made during the data processing for errors in the reporting of marital status on the birth records of the 41 reporting States and the District of Columbia because the extent of this reporting problem is unknown. When marital status is not stated on the birth certificate of a reporting area, the mother is considered married. When out-of-wedlock births are reported as second or higher order births, it is not known whether the mother's previous deliveries occurred out of wedlock, because her marital status at the time of these earlier births is not available from the birth record. Rates for 1940 and 1950 are based on decennial census counts. In this volume, rates for 1955-86 are based on a smoothed series of population estimates (NCHS, 1980). Because of sampling error, the original U.S. Bureau of the Census population estimates fluctuate erratically from year to year; therefore, they have been smoothed so that the rates do not show similar variations. The rates shown in this volume differ from those published in issues of Vital Statistics of the United States before 1969, which were based on the original estimates provided annually by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Birth rates by marital status for 1971-79 have been revised and differ from rates published before 1980 in issues of Vital Statistics of the United States (see "Computation of Rates and Other Measures").

Washington U.S. Government Printing Office, Apr 1986. Place of Delivery and Attendant at Birth Births occurring in hospitals, institutions, clinics, centers, or homes are included in the category "In hospital." In this context the word "homes" does not refer to the mother's residence but to an institution such as a home for unwed mothers. Beginning in 1975, the attendant at birth and place of delivery items have been coded independently,primarily to permit the identifi- cation of the person in attendance at hospital deliveries.Tables 1-37 and 1-38 of this report present this more detailed information for the years 1975-86. Data shown in this volume for the "In hospital" category for the years 1975-86 include all births in clinics or maternity centers, regardless of the attendant. Data for 1975-77 published before 1980 included clinic and center births in the category "In hospital" only when the attendant was a physician. Data shown for 1975-77 in tables 1-37 and 1-38 therefore differ from data published before 1980. As a result of this change, for 1975 an additional 12,352 births are now classified as occurring in hospitals, raising the per- cent of births occurring in hospitals from 98.7 to 99.1. Similarly, for 1976 the number of births occurring in hospitals is increased by 14,133 and the percent in hospitals raised from 98.6 to 99.1; for 1977, the increase is 15,937 and the percent in hospitals raised from 98.5 to 99.0. For 1974 and earlier, the "In hospital" category includes all births in hospitals or insti- tutions and births in clinics, centers, or maternity homes only when attended by physicians. For births occurring outside of hospitals, separate classifications are shown for physicians, midwives, and "Other" attendants. The "Out-of-hospital" category also includes births for which no information is reported on place of birth. Before 1975, the category "In hospital" included births for which the stated place of birth was a "doctor's office" and delivery was by a physician. Beginning in 1975, births that were delivered by physicians in a "doctor's office" have been tabulated as "Not in hospital" and included with births delivered by physicians in this category. Although the actual number of such births is unknown, the effect of the change is minimal. In 1974, 0.3 percent of all births were delivered by physicians outside of hospitals; in 1975 this proportion was 0.4 percent. Babies born on the way to or on arrival at the hospital are classified as having been born in the hospital. This may account for some of the hospital births not delivered by physicians or midwives. The percent distributions by attendant at birth for 1975-81 shown in table 1-38 have been revised to exclude births for which the attendant was unspecified. In recent years, the number of births with unspecified attendant has fluctuated substantially. Excluding these births from the percent distributions allows for a more meaningful year-to-year comparison in the proportion of births for each specified attendant. Birth Weight Birth weight is reported in some areas in pounds and ounces rather than in grams. However, the metric system has been used in tabulating and presenting the statistics to facilitate comparison with data published by other groups. The categories for birth weight were changed in 1979 to be consistent with the recommendations in the Ninth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9). The revised categories in gram intervals and their equivalents in pounds and ounces are as follows: Less than 500 grams = 1 lb 1 oz or less 500 - 999 grams = 1 lb 2 oz- 2 lb 3 oz 1,000 - 1,499 grams = 2 lb 4 oz- 3 lb 4 oz 1,500 - 1,999 grams = 3 lb 5 oz- 4 lb 6 oz 2,000 - 2,499 grams = 4 lb 7 oz- 5 lb 8 oz 2,500 - 2,999 grams = 5 lb 9 oz- 6 lb 9 oz 3,000 - 3,499 grams = 6 lb 10 oz- 7 lb 11 oz 3,500 - 3,999 grams = 7 lb 12 oz- 8 lb 13 oz 4,000 - 4,499 grams = 8 lb 14 oz- 9 lb 14 oz 4,500 - 4,999 grams = 9 lb 15 oz-ll lb 0 oz 5,000 grams or more = 11 lb 1 oz or more The ICD-9 defines low birth weight as less than 2,500 grams. This is a shift of 1 gram from the previous criterion of 2,500 grams or less, which was recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics in 1935 and adopted by the World Health Organization in the Sixth Revision of the International Lists of Diseases and Causes of Death (1948). After data classified by pounds and ounces are converted to grams, median weights are computed and rounded before publication. To establish the continuity of class intervals needed to convert pounds and ounces to grams,the end points of these intervals are assumed to be half an ounce less at the lower end and half an ounce more at the upper end. For example, 2 lb 4 oz-3 lb 4 oz is interpreted as 2 lb 3 1/2 oz-3 lb 4 1/2 oz. Births for which birth weight is not reported are excluded from the computation of percents and medians. Period of Gestation The period of gestation is defined as beginning with the first day of the last normal menstrual period (LMP) and ending with the day of the birth. The LMP is used as the initial date as it can be more accurately determined than the date of conception, which usually occurs 2 weeks after the LMP. Births occurring before 37 weeks of gestation are considered to be "preterm" or "premature" for purposes of classification. At 37-41 weeks gestation, births are considered to be "term," and at 42 weeks and over, "post term." These distinctions are according to the ICD-9 definitions. Before 1981, the period of gestation was computed only when there was a valid month, day, and year of LMP. However, length of gestation could not be determined from a substantial number of live birth certificates each year because the day of LMP was missing. Beginning in 1981 weeks of gestation have been imputed for records with missing day of LMP when there is a valid month and year. Each such record is assigned the gestational period in weeks of the preceding record that has a complete LMP date with the same computed months of gestation and the same 500-gram birth weight interval. The effect of the imputation procedure is to increase slightly the proportion of premature births and to lower the proportion of births at 39, 40, 41, and 42 weeks of gestation. A more complete discussion of this procedure and its implications is presented in a previous report (NCHS, 1982). The calculated period of gestation in completed weeks is edited for upper and lower limits. If the interval between date of last normal menstrual period and date of birth is 16 weeks or less, or 53 weeks or more,the period of gestation is considered not stated. Because of post-conception bleeding or menstrual irregularities, the presumed date of LMP may be in error. In these instances the computed gestational period may be longer or shorter than the true gestational period, but the extent of such errors is unknown. Month of Pregnancy Prenatal Care Began For those records in which the name of the month is entered for this item, instead of first, second, third, and so forth, the month of pregnancy in which prenatal care began is determined from the month named and the month last normal menses began. For these births, if the item "Date last normal menses began" is not on the certificate or is not stated, the month of pregnancy in which prenatal care began is tabulated as not stated. Number of Prenatal Visits Tabulations of the number of prenatal visits were presented for the first time in 1972.In 1986 these data were collected from the birth certificates of all States except California. Apgar Score One- and 5-minute Apgar scores were added to the U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth in 1978 to evaluate the condition of the newborn infant at 1 and 5 minutes after birth. The Apgar score is a useful measure of the need for resuscitation and a predictor of the infant's chances of surviving the first year of life. It is a summary measure of the infant's condition based on heart rate, respiratory effort, muscle tone, reflex irritability, and color. Each of these factors is given a score of 0, 1, or 2; the sum of these 5 values is the Apgar score, which ranges from 0 to 10. A score of 10 is optimun, and a low score raises some doubts about the survival and subsequent health of the infant. In 1986 the 1- and 5- Apgar scores were included on the birth certifiates of 46 States and the District of Columbia. See table A for a listing of reporting areas. Hispanic Parentage Concurrent with the 1978 revision of the U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth, NCHS recommended that States add items to identify the Hispanic or ethnic origin of the newborn's parents. Two formats were used: An open-ended item to obtain the specific origin or descent of each parent, for example, Italian, Mexican, or English; and an item directed toward the Hispanic population, requesting only the specific Hispanic origin (Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, and so forth). In 1986 items requesting Hispanic or ethnic origin were included on the birth certificates of 23 States and the District of Columbia (see table A). Quality of Data General Information Although vital statistics data are useful for a variety of administrative and scientific purposes, they cannot be correctly interpreted unless various qualifying factors and methods of classification are taken into account. The factors to be considered depend on the specific purposes for which the data are to be used.It is not feasible to discuss all the pertinent factors in the use of vital statistics tabulations, but some of the more important ones should be mentioned. Most of the factors limiting the use of data arise from imperfections in the original records or from the impracticability of tabulating these data in very detailed categories. These limitations should not be ignored, but their existence does not vitiate the value of the data for most general purposes. Completeness of Registration An estimated 99.3 percent of all births occurring in the United States in 1986 were registered; for white births registration was 99.4 percent complete and for all other births, 98.6 percent complete. These estimates are based on the results of the 1964-68 test of birth-registration completeness according to place of delivery (in or out of hospital) and race and on the 1986 propor- tions of births in these categories. The primary purpose of the test was to obtain current measures of registration completeness for births in and out of hospital by race on a national basis.Data for States were not available as they had been from the previous birth-registration tests in 1940 and 1950. A detailed discussion of the method and results of the 1964-68 birth-registra- tion test is available (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1973). The 1964-68 test has provided an opportunity to revise the estimates of birth-registration completeness for the years since the previous test in 1950 to reflect the improvement in registration. This has been done using registration completeness figures from the two tests by place of delivery and race. Estimates of registration completeness for four groups (based on place of delivery and race) for 1951-65 were computed by interpolation between the test results. (It was assumed that the data from the more recent test are for 1966, the midpoint of the test period.) The results of the 1964-68 test are assumed to prevail for 1966 and later years. These estimates were used with the proportions of births registered in these categories to obtain revised numbers of births adjusted for underregistration for each year. The overall percent of birth-registration completeness by race was then computed. The figures for 1951-68 shown in table 1-21 differ slightly from those shown in annual reports for years prior to 1969. Data adjusted for underregistration for 1951-59 shown in tables 1-1, 1-3, 1-4, 1-6, and 1-8 have been revised to be consistent with the 1964-68 test results and differ slightly from data shown in annual reports for years before 1969. For these years the published number of births and birth rates for both racial groups have been revised slightly downward because the 1964-68 test indicated that previous adjustments to registered births were slightly inflated. Because registration completeness figures by age of mother and by live-birth order are not available from the 1964-68 test, it must be assumed that the relationships among these variables have not changed since 1950. Discontinuation of adjustment for underregistration, 1960--Adjustment for underregistration of births was discontinued in 1960, when birth registration for the United States was estimated to be 99.1 percent complete.This removed a bias introduced into age-specific rates when adjusted births classified by age were used.Age-specific rates are calculated by dividing the number of births to an age group of mothers by the population of women in that age group. Tests have shown that population figures are likely to be understated through census undercounts; these errors compensate for underregistration of births. Adjustment for underregistration of births, therefore,removes the compensating effect of underenumeration, biasing the age-specific rates more than when uncorrected birth and population data are used.(For further details see Vital Statistics of the United States, 1963, Volume I, page 4-11.) The age-specific rates used in the cohort fertility tables (tables 1-12 through 1-19) are an exception to the above statement. These rates are computed from births corrected for underregistration and population estimates adjusted for underenumeration and misstatement of age. Adjusted births and population estimates are used for the cohort rates because they are an integral part of a series of rates, estimated with a consistent methodology. It was considered desirable to maintain consistency with respect to the cohort rates, even though it means that they will not be precisely comparable with other rates shown for 5-year age groups. Quality Control Procedures States in the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program are required to have an error rate of less than 2.0 percent for each item for 3 consecutive data months during the initial qualifying period. Once a State is qualified, NCHS monitors the quality of data received through independent verification of a sample of records to ensure that the item error rate is not more than approxi- mately 4 percent.In addition, there is verification at the State level before NCHS is sent the data. After completion of coding, counts of the taped records are balanced against control totals for each shipment of records from a registration area. Impossible codes are eliminated during the editing processes on the computer and corrected on the basis of reference to the source record or adjusted by arbitrary code assignment. All subsequent operations involved in tabulation and table preparation are verified during the computer processing or by statistical clerks. Small Frequencies The numbers of births reported for an area represent complete counts. As such, they are not subject to sampling error, although they are subject to errors in the registration process. However, when the figures are used for analytical purposes, such as the comparison of rates over a time period or for different areas, the number of events that actually occurred may be considered as one of a large series of possible results that could have arisen under the same circumstances. The probable range of values may be estimated from the actual figures according to certain statistical assumptions. In general, distributions of vital events may be assumed to follow the binomial distribution.Estimates of standard errors and tests of significance under this assumption are described in most standard statistics texts. When the number of events is large, the standard error, expressed as a percent of the number or rate, is usually small. When the number of events is small (perhaps less than 100) and the probability of such an event is small, considerable caution must be observed in interpreting the conditions described by the figures.Events of rare nature may be assumed to follow a Poisson probability distribution. For this distribution, a simple approximation may be used to estimate the error as follows: If N is the number of births and R is the corresponding rate, the changes are 19 in 20 that: 1. The "true" number of events lies between N + or - 2 (SQRT N) 2. The "true" rate lies between R + or - 2 (R/SQRT N) If the rate R corresponding to N events is compared with the rate S corresponding to M events, the difference between the two rates may be regarded as statistically significant if it exceeds 2 {SQRT{((R**2)/N) + ((S**2)/M)}} For example,suppose that the observed birth rate for area A was 15.0 per 1,000 population and that this rate was based on 50 recorded births. Given prevailing conditions,the chances are 19 in 20 that the "true" or underlying birth rate for that area lied between 10.8 and 19.2 per 1,000 population.Let it be further supposed that the birth rate for area A of 15.0 per 1,000 population is being compared with a rate of 20.0 per 1,000 population for area B, which is based on 40 recorded births. Although the difference between the rates for the two areas if 5.0, this difference is less than twice the stand- ard error of the difference 2 {SQRT{((15**2)/50) + ((20**2)/40)}} of the two rates that is computed to be 7.6. From this, it is concluded that the difference between the rates for the two areas is not statistically significant. Sampling of Birth Records Birth statistics presented in this report for years before 1951 and for 1955 are based on the total file of birth records. Statistics for 1951-54, 1956-66, and 1968-71 are based on 50-percent samples with the exception of data for Guam and the Virgin Islands, which are based on all the records filed. During the course of processing the 1967 data, the sampling rate was reduced from 50 percent to 20 percent. For details of this procedure and its consequences for the 1967 data, see Vital Statistics of the United States, 1967, Volume I, pages 3-9 to 3-11. Beginning in 1972 statistics are based on all records filed in the States submitting computer tapes and on a 50-percent sample of records in all other States. In 1982 the total file of birth records was used for 45 States (see "Sources of Data"), which accounted for 83 percent of all births in the country. The total file of records was also used for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam. In the five States (Arizona, California, Delaware, Georgia, and North Dakota) and the District of Columbia where a sample was used, the sampling design is essentially a stratified random sample. The sampling frame consists of births that occur in the State during a calendar year and that are recorded by State registrars of vital statistics. Each month the birth certificates hat have been filed during the month are sent by local registrats to the State registrats, where the records are numbered sequentially as they are received. Therefore the records for each local registration area, usually a county, are numbered sequentially, and births in the total file for each State are grouped by month of filing and county of occurrence. Microfilm copies of the birth records filed in the State are fowarded to the National Center for Health Statistics, where even-numbered records are selected for the 50-percent sampling rate. Reliability of Estimates There is no sampling error in the total number of births occurring in a State, whether the total file or a 50-percent sample is used. Characteristics such as race and month of birth when shown by place of occurrence are subject to sampling error only for the sampled States. All data by place of residence, for all States, are subject to sampling error. Sampling error is the difference between an estimate based on a sample and the true value (assuming there is no measurement error). As calculated for this report the standard error reflects this error as well as random measure- ments errors that may have been made in data collection and processing. However, it does not include any systematic biases in the data. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that the difference between the estimate and the value that would have been obtained from all births is less than 1 standard error. The chances are about 19 out of 20 that the difference is less than twice the standard error and about 99 out of 100 that it is less than 2 1/2 times as large. The approximate standard errors for 1982 for total births in an area and for numbers of births with a specific characteristic can be obtained using table B in conjunction with table C. To use table B, both the total number of births in the area and the estimated number of births with a specific characteristic must be known. For estimated births with a specified characteristic other than geographic area, the appropriate "Total births in the area" in table B is the number in the relevant area-for example, city, county, State, or United States. When the specified characteristic is a sub- state geographic area, the number of births in the State is used as the "Total births in the area." Linear interpolation may be used to obtain standard errors for estimated numbers of births not shown in table B. After the standard error is determined from table B, it is multiplied by the appropriate factor from table C. If the multiplier is zero ("-"), there is no standard error. For substate geographic areas, the multiplier shown for the State should be used. For example, consider an estimate of 10,000 births to women with a particular characteristic residing in Oregon, which has a total of 41,040 births to residents. Table B shows that the standard error for an estimate of 10,000 births is 70.7 for an area having 20,000 total births and 89.4 for an area having 50,000 total births. Linear interpolation yields a value of 83.8 for the appropriate standard error for an area having 41,040 births. According to table C, the multiplier for resident births for Oregon is 0.27. Hence, the standard error for the estimate of 10,000 births to women with a particular characteristic residing in Oregon is approximately 22.6=(83.8)(0.27). The multiplier in table C for a nonsampled State is based on the estimated proportion of births to that State's residents occurring in adjacent sampled States. When the multiplier is zero ("-"), there are no adjacent sampled States. The proportion of births to that State's residents occurring in nonadjacent sampled States is small, with only a negligible affect on the standard error. Table B.

This is because the denominators are estimates that are considered to be without sampling errors (for example, populations by age, race, and sex or by month for the United States; or populations for States or for SMSA's). The standard error for estimates of the difference between two estimates X1 and X2 may be calculated using SE(d)={SQRT{SE**2(X*1) + SE**2(X*2)}} This formula represents the standard error quite accurately for the difference between separate and uncorrelated characteristics. When the characteristics are correlated, however, this formula overstates the standard error. The standard error for an estimate of the ratio R = X/Y may be approxi- mated if the sample sizes are large enough for the ratio's variance to be valid. As a working rule, the variance formula may be used if Y exceeds 60 and is also large enough that the relative standard errors (RSE's) for both X and Y are less than 0.10 12 or if RSE(Y) is less than 0.05 13. The RSE of an estimate (X or Y) is approximated by dividing the standard error by the estimate itself. In the following it is assumed that Y exceeds 60 and that at least one of the two conditions of the RSE's is satisfied. The standard error for percent estimates where X is a subclass of the denominator Y may be calculated using SE(R) = R{SQRT{RSE**2(X) - RSE**2(Y)}} The standard error for estimates of means and other ratios where the numerator X is not a subclass of the denomintor Y may be calculated using SE(R) = R{SQRT{RSE**2(X) + RSE**2(Y)}} Computation of Rates and Other Measures Population Bases The rates shown in this report were computed on the basis of population statistics prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Rates for 1940,1950, 1960, 1970, and 1980 are based on the population enumerated as of April 1, in the censuses of those years. Rates for all other years are based on the estimated midyear (July 1) population for the respective years. Birth rates for the United States, individual States, and SMSA's are based on the total resident populations of the respective areas. Except as noted these populations exclude the Armed Forces abroad but include the Armed Forces stationed in each area. The resident population of the birth- and death-registration States for 1900-1932 and for the United States for 1900=1985 is shown in table 4-1. In addition, the population including Armed Forces abroad is shown for the United States. Table B shows the sources for these populations. Population estimates for 1981-86--The population of the United States by age, race, and sex for 1986 is shown in table 4-2. The population for each State is shown in table 4-3 and the monthly population figures were published in Current Population Reports,Series P-25,Number 1021.Comparable data for 1981 1982, 1983, 1984, and 1985 were shown in tables 4-2 and 4-3 of Vital Statis- tics of the United States, Volume I, for those years and in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Numbers 931, 949, 961, 980 and 1001. Population data by race are consistent with the modified 1980 populations by race. Populations for 1980--The population of the United States by age, race, and sex, and the population for each State are shown in tables 4-2 and 4-3 of Vital Statistics of the United States, 1980, Volume I.The figures by race have been modified as described below.Monthly population figures were published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 899.

The racial counts in their 1980 census are affected by changes in racial reporting practices, particularly by the Hispanic population, and in coding and classifying racial groups in the 1980 census. One particular change has created a major inconsistency between the 1980 census data and historical data series including censuses and vital statistics. About 40 percent of the Hispanic population counted in 1980, over 5.8 million persons, did not mark one of the specified races listed on the census questionnaire but instead marked the "Other" category. In the 1980 census, coding procedures were modified for persons who marked "Other" race and wrote in a national origin designation of a Latin American country or a specific Hispanic origin group in response to the racial question. These persons remained in the "Other" racial category in 1980 census data; in previous census and in vital statistics such responses were almost always coded into the "White" category. In order to maintain comparability, the "Other" racial category in the 1980 census was reallocated to be consistent with previous procedures.Persons who marked the "Other" racial category and reported any Spanish origin on the Spanish origin question (5,840,648 persons) were distributed to white and black races in proportion to the distribution of persons of Hispanic origin who reported their race to be white or black. This was done for each age-sex group. As a result of this procedure, 5,705,155 persons were added to the white population and 135,493 persons to the black population. Persons who marked the "Other" racial category and reported that they were not of Spanish origin (916,338) persons) were distributed as follows: 20 percent in each age-sex group were added to the "Asian and Pacific Islander" category (183,268 persons), and 80 percent were added to the "White" category (733,070 persons). The count of American Indians, Eskimos, and Aleuts was not affected by these procedures. Unpublished tabulations of these modified census counts were obtained from the U.S. Bureau of the Census and used to compute the 1980 rates for this report, except for tables 1-12 through 1-19. Population estimates for 1971-79--Birth rates for 1971-79 (except those for cohorts of women in tables 1-12 through 1-19) have been revised, based on revised population estimates that are consistent with the 1980 census levels. The 1980 census counted approximately 5.5 million more persons than had earl- ier been estimated for April 1, 1980 (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1982). The revised estimates for the United States by age, race, and sex were published by the U.S. Bureau of the Census in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 917. Population estimates by month are based on data published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 899. Unpublished revised estimates for States were obtained from the U.S. Bureau of the Census. Population estimates for 1961-69--Birth rates in this volume for 1961-69 (except for those shown in tables 1-4 and 1-5) are based on revised estimates of the population and thus may differ slightly from rates published before 1976. The revised estimates used in computing these rates were published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 519.The rates shown in tables 1-4 and 1-5 for 1961-64 are based on revised estimates of the population published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Numbers 321 and 324 and may differ slightly from rates published in those years. Population estimates for 1951-59--Final intercensal estimates of the population by age, race, and sex and total population by State for 1951-59 are shown in tables 4-4 and 4-5 of Vital Statistics of the United States, 1966, Volume I. Beginning with 1963 these final estimates have been used to compute birth rates for 1951-59 in all issues of Vital Statistics of the United States. Net Census Undercounts and Overcounts The U.S. Bureau of the Census has conducted extensive research to evaluate the coverage of the U.S. population (including undercount and overcount and misstatement of age, race, and sex) in the last four decennial censuses--1950, 1960, 1970, and 1980. These studies provide estimates of the national population that was not enumerated or overenumerated in the respective censuses, by age, race, and sex (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1974, 1977, and 1986). The report for 1980 (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1986) includes estimates of net underenumeration and overenumeration for age, sex, and racial subgroups of the national population, modified for race consistency with previous population counts as described in the section "Populations for 1980." These studies indicate that there is differential coverage in the censuses among the population subgroups; that is, some age, race, and sex groups are more completely enumerated than others. To the extent that these estimates of overcounts or undercounts are valid, that they are substantial, and that they vary among subgroups and geographic areas, census miscounts can have consequences for vital statistics measures (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1974). However, the effects of undercounts in the census are reduced to the extent that there is underregistration of births. If these two factors are of equal magnitude, rates based on the unadjusted populations are more accurate than those based on adjusted populations because the births have not been adjusted for underregistration. The impact of net census miscounts on vital statistics measures includes the effects on level of the rates and effects on differentials among groups. If adjustments were made for persons who were not counted in the census of population,the size of the denominators would generally increase and the rates would be smaller than without an adjustment. Adjusted rates for 1980 can be computed by multiplying the reported rates by ratios of the 1980 census-level population adjusted for the estimated net census miscounts, which are shown in table C. A ratio of less than 1.0 indicates a net census undercount and would result in a corresponding decrease in the rate. A ratio in excess of 1.0 indicates a net census overcount and would result in a corresponding increase in the rate. Enumeration of white females in the childbearing ages was at least 99 percent complete for all ages. Among women of races other than white, the undercount ranged up to 4 percent. Generally, females in the childbearing ages were more completely enumerated than males for similar race-age groups. If vital statistics measures were calculated with adjustments for net census miscounts for each of these subgroups, the resulting rates would have been differentially changed from their original levels; that is, rates for those groups with the greatest estimated overcounts or undercounts would show the greatest relative changes due to these adjustments. Thus, the racial differential in fertility between the white and the all other population can be affected by such adjustments. Table C.

Washington, U.S. Government Printing Office, Apr. 1986 Cohort Fertility Tables The various fertility measures shown for cohorts of women in tables 1-12 through 1-19 are computed from births adjusted for underregistration and population estimates corrected for underenumeration and misstatement of age. The data shown in this volume are not consistent with data published in annual reports before 1974. These data use revised population estimates prepared by the U.S. Bureau of the Census and have been expanded to include data for the two major racial groups. Heuser (NCHS, 1976) has prepared a detailed description of the methods used in deriving these measures as well as more detailed data for earlier years. Age-Sex-Adjusted Birth Rates The age-sex-adjusted birth rates shown in table 1-3 are computed by the direct method. The age distribution of women aged 10-49 years as enumerated in 1940 and the total population of the United States for that year are used as the standard populations.The birth rates by age of mother and race that are used to compute these adjusted rates are shown in table 1-6. The age-sex-adjusted birth rates show differences in the level of fertility independent of differences in the age and sex composition of the population. It is important not to confuse these adjusted rates with the crude rates shown in other tables. Total Fertility Rate The total fertility rate is the sum of the birth rates by age of mother (in 5-year age groups) multiplied by 5. It is an age-adjusted rate because it is based on the assumption that there are the same number of women in each age group. In table 1-6 the rate of 1,836 in 1986, for example, means that if a hypothetical group of 1,000 women were to have the same birth rates in each age group that were observed in the actual childbearing population in 1986, they would have a total of 1,836 children by the time they reached the end of the reproductive period (taken here as age 50), assuming that all of the women survived to that age. Intrinsic Vital Rates The intrinsic vital rates shown in table 1-5 are calculated from a stable population. A stable population is that hypothetical population, closed to external migration, which would become fixed in age-sex structure after repeated applications of a constant set of age-sex specific birth and death rates. For the mathematical derivation of intrinsic vital rates, see Vital Statistics of the United States, 1962, Volume I, pages 4-13 and 4-14. The technique of calculating intrinsic vital rates is described by Barclay (1958, pp. 216-222). Parity Distribution The percent distribution of women by parity (number of children ever born alive to mother) shown in tables 1-13 and 1-17 is derived from cumulative birth rates by order of birth, which are shown in tables 1-15 and 1-19. The percent of zero-parity women is found by subtracting the cumulative first birth rate from 1,000 and dividing by 10. The proportions of women at parities one through six are found from the following formula: Percent at N parity = (cum rate, order N) - (cum. rate, order N + 1) ______________________________________________ 10 The percent of women at seventh and higher parities is found by dividing the cumulative rate for seventh-order births by 10. Seasonal Adjustment of Rates The seasonally adjusted birth and fertility rates shown in table 1-23 are computed from the X-11 variant of Census Method II (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1965). This method of seasonal adjustment used since 1964 differs slightly from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Seasonal Factor Method,which was used for Vital Statistics of the United States, 1964. The fundamental technique is the same in that it is an adaptation of the ratio-to-moving- average method. Before 1964 the method of seasonal adjustment was based on the X-9 variant and other variants of Census Method II. A comparison of the Census Method II with the BLS Seasonal Factor Method shows the differences in the seasonal patterns of births to be negligible. Computation of Percents, Medians, and Means Percent distributions, medians, and means are computed using only events for which the characteristic is reported. The "Not stated" category is subtracted from the total before computation of these measures.

Statistics for Arizona, Arkansas, California, Delaware, District of Columbia, Georgia, New Mexico, North Dakota, and South Dakota are based on information obtained from a 50-percent sample of microfilm copies of all certificate; of live birth filed in these States. Statistics for the remainder of the United States are based on information derived from computer tapes of the data coded by these States and provided to the National Center for Health Statistics through the vital statistics cooperative program. Race or National Origin Births in the United States in 1979 are classified for statistical purposes according to the race or national orgin of the parents. The categories are "White,""Black","American Indian,""Chinese,""Japanese," "Hawaiian,""Filipino,""Other Asian or Pacific Islander," and "Other." The category "All other" comprises Black, American Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Hawaiian, Filipino, other Asian or Pacific Islanders, and "Other." 1980 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data Natality statistics Natality statistics for 1980 are based on information obtained from two sources. Statistics for Arizona, California, Delaware, the District of Columbia, Georgia, New Mexico, and North Dakota are based on information obtained from a 50-percent sample of microfilm copies of all certificates of live births filed in these areas. Statistics for the remaining States, except Arkansas and South Dakota, are based on information derived from computer tapes of data coded by these States and provided to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) through the Vital Statistics Cooperative Program. Although not program participants, Arkansas and South Dakota also provide computer tapes to NCHS based on the total file of birth records. Classification of Data Geographic Classification Standard metropolitan statistics areas. --Beginning in 1980 all standard metropolitan statistical areas (SMSA's) are those established for 1980 by the U.S. Office of Management and budget and used by the U.S. Bureau of the Census except in the New England States. In these States, New England County Metropolitan Areas (NECMA's) are used. These areas are established by the Office of Management and Budget and are made up of county units. Standard consolidated areas, combination of SMSA's, are no longer identified. Marital Status Beginning with 1980 data, national estimates of births to unmarried women are derived from two sources. For 41 States and the District of Columbia, marital status of mother is reported directly on the birth certificate (see table A); for the remaining 9 States which lack such an item, marital status is inferred from a comparison of the child's and parents' surnames. This procedure represents a substantial departure from the method used in previous years to prepare national estimates of births to unmarried women.The previous method assumed that the incidence of births to unmarried women in States with no direct question on marital status was the same as the incidence in reporting States in the same geographic division. Ratios of births to unmarried women were computed by race for the reporting States in each geographic division, applied to all births in the division, and then summed to obtain national estimates by race. The figures by race were summed to yield the totals for the Ualted States. The new method represents an attempt to utilize related information on the birth certificate in order to improve the quality of national data on this topic as well as to provide data for the individual nonreporting States. A birth is classified as occurring to a married woman if the parents' surnames are the same or if the child's and father's surnames are the same and the mother's current surname is not obtainable from the informant item of the birth certificate. A birth is classified as occurring to an unmarried woman if the father's name is missing, if the parents' surnames are different, or if the father's and child's surnames are different and the mother's current surname is missing. No adjustments are made during processing of the data for errors in the reporting of marital status on the birth records of the 41 reporting States and District of Columbia, or for failure to register births to unmarried women, because the extent of these reporting problems is unknown. When marital status is not stated on the birth certificate of a reporting area, the mother is considered to be married. When out-of-wedlock births are reported as second or higher order births, it is not known whether previous deliveries to the mother occurred out of wedlock since the marital status of the mother at the time of these earlier births is not available from the birth record; More detailed data on births to unmarried women are given in a previous report. A complete tabulation of the number of births to died women by age of mother and race for 1979 ani 1980 is shown in table B. Two sets of figures are given for 1980, those derived from the new method utilizing reported and inferred data and those derived from the geographic ratio estimation procedure. It is evident that the methodological change had significantly greater impact on the figures for white births to mothers aged 25 years and older than on the figures for other racial or age groups. In this volume, two sets of birth rates by age of mother and race for unmarried and married women are shown for 1980, those derived from the new method as described and those derived from the geographic estimation Procedure (tables 1-32 and 1-33). Nearly half of the increase in rates for unmarried women between 1979 and 1980 is attributable to the change in method of deriving the number of births to unmarried women. Rates for 1940 and 1950 are based on decennial census counts. In this report, rates for 1955-80 are based on a smoothed series of population estimates. Since the original Bureau of the Census population estimates fluctuate erratically from year to year because of sampling error, they have been smoothed so that the rates do not show similar variations. The rates shown in this report differ from those published in issues of Vital Statistics of the United States before 1969, which were based on the original estimates provided annually by the Bureau of the Census. Birth rates for 1971-79 have been revised to reflect the higher levels of population indicated by the 1980 Census of population, and therefore differ from rates published in previous years (see Computation of Rates and Other Measures). Birth Weight Beginning in 1979 the categories for birth weight have been changed to be consistent with the recommendations in the Ninth Revision of the International Classification Of Diseases (ICD-9).The revised categories in gram intervals and their equivalents in pounds and ounces are as follows: less than 500 grams = 1 lb 1 oz - or less 500 - 999 grams = 1 lb 2 oz - 2 lb 3 oz 1,000 - 1,499 grams = 2 lb 4 oz - 3 lb 4 oz 1,500 - 1,999 grams = 3 lb 5 oz - 4 lb 6 oz 2,000 - 2,499 grams = 4 lb 7 oz - 5 lb 8 oz 2,500 - 2,999 grams = 5 lb 9 oz - 6 lb 9 oz 3,000 - 3,499 grams = 6 lb 10 oz - 7 lb 11 oz 3,500 - 3,999 grams = 7 lb 12 oz - 8 lb 13 oz 4,000 - 4,499 grams = 8 lb 14 oz - 9 lb 14 oz 4,500 - 4,999 grams = 9 lb 15 oz - 11 lb 0 oz 5,000 grams or more = lb 1 oz or more The ICD-9 defines low birth weight as less than 2,500 grams. This is a shift of one gram from the previous criterion of 2,500 grams or less which was recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics in 1935 and adopted by the World Health Organization in the Sixth Revision of the International Lists of Diseases and Causes of Death (1948). Period of Gestation Births occurring prior to 37 weeks of gestation are considered to be "preterm" or "premature" for uses of classification. At 37-41 weeks of gestation, births are considered to be "term" and at 42 weeks and over, "post-term". These distinctions are in accordance with the definitions of of ICD-9. Computation of Rates and Other Measures Population Bases Population estimates for 1980. --The population of the United States by age, race, and sex for the United States is shown in table 4-2; the figures by race have been modified as described below. The population for each State is shown in table 4-3 and the populations by month are published in Crrrent Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 899. The figures by race in the 1980 census are affected by changes in the practice of reporting race, particularly on the part of the Hispanic population, and in coding and classifying racial groups in the 1980 census. One particular change has created a major inconsistency between the 1980 census data and historical data series, including censuses and vital statistics. About 40 percent of the Hispanic population counted in 1980, over 5.8 million persons, did not mark one of the specified races listed on the census questionnaire but marked the "Other" category instead In the 1980 census coding procedures were modified for persons who marked "Other" race and wrote in a national origin designation of a Latin American country or a specific Hispanic origin group in response to the race question. These persons remained in the "Other races" category in 1980 census data; in previous censuses and in vital statistics such responses were almost always coded into the "White" category. In order to maintain comparability, the "Other races" category in the 1980 census has been reallocated to be consistent both previous procedures. Persons who marked the "Other" racial category and who reported any Spanish origin on the Spanish origin question (5,840,648 persons) were distributed to white and black races in proportion to the distribution of persons of Hispanic origin who reported their race to be white or black. This procedure was done for each age-sex group. As a result of this procedure, 5,705,155 persons were added to the white population and 135,493 persons were added to the black population. Persons who marked the "Other" racial category and who reported that they were not of Spanish origin (916,338 persons) were distributed as follows: 20 percent in each age-sex group were added to the "Asian and Pacific Islander" category (183,268 persons) and 80 percent were added to the "White" category (733,070 persons). The count of American Indians, Eskimos, and Aleuts was not affected by these procedures. Unpublished tabulations of these modified census counts were obtained from the Bureau of the Census and were used to compute the rates for this report, except for tables 1-12 through 1-19. Population estimates for 1971-79. --Birth rates for 1971-79 (except those for cohorts of women in tables 1-12 through 1-19) have been revised. The revised rates are based on revised population estimates for these years which are consistent with the 1980 Census levels. The 1980 Census counted approximately 5.5 million more persons than had earlier been estimated for April 1, 1980. The revised estimates for the United States by age, race, and sex are published by the Bureau of the Census in the Crrrent Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 917. Population estimates by month are based on data published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Nmber 899. Unpublished revised estimates for States were obtained from the Bureau of the Census. 1981 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data The sources of natality data in 1981 are the same as in 1980. Classification of Data Period of Gestation Prior to 1981, the period of gestation was computed only when there was a valid month, day, and year of LMP.However, length of gestation could not be ascertained on a substantial number of live birth certificates each year because day of LMP alone was missing. Beginning in 1981 weeks of gestation are imputed for records with missing day of LMP when there is a valid month and year.Each such record is assigned the gestational period in weeks of the preceding record with a complete LMP date having the same computed months of gestation and the same 500-gram birth weight interval. The effect of the imputation procedure is to increase slightly the proportion of premature births and to lower the proportion of births at 39, 40, 41, and 42 weeks of gestation. For a more complete discussion of this imputation procedure and its implications, see National Center for Health Statistics, "A Method of Imputing Length of Gestation on Birth Certificates,"by S. Taffel, D. Johnson, and R. Heuser, Vital and Health Statistics, Series 2 - No. 93, DHHS Pub. No. (PHS) 82-1367, Public Health Service, Wash.,U. S. Government Printing Office, Aug. 1981. Hispanic Parentage Concurrent with the 1978 revision of the U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth,the NCHS recommended that States add items to identify the Hispanic or ethnic origin of the newborn's parents. Two formats were used: 1) an open- ended item to obtain the specific origin or descent of each parent, for example, Italian, Mexican, or English; and 2) an item directed toward the Hispanic population,requesting only the specific Hispanic origin (Mexican, Puerto Rican, Cuban, etc.). In 1981, items requesting Hispanic or ethnic origin were incleded on the birth certificates of 22 States (see table A). For a detailed analysis of births of Hispanic Parentage, see National Center for Health Statistics "Births of Hispanic Parentage, 1980," by S. J. Ventura, Monthly Vital Statistics Report, Vol. 32, No. 6, Supplement, DHHS Publication No. (PHS) 83-1120, Sept. 23, 1983. Sampling of Birth Records In 1981 the total file of birth records was used for 44 States(see Sources of data) which accounted for 83 percent of all births in the country. The total file of records was also used for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam. Reliability of Estimates There is no sampling error in the total number of births occurring in a State, whether the total file or a 50-percent sample is used. Characteristics such as race and month of birth when shown by place of occurrence are subject to sampling error only for the sampled States. All data by place of residence, for all States, are subject to sampling error. The approximate standard errors for 1981 are presented in table B for selected birth totals and numbers of births with a specified characteristic in areas with a 50-percent sample. Linear interpolation may be used to obtain the standard errors for other estimated numbers of births. For States with all records tabulated, the standard errors for specific characteristics are approximated by multiplying the errors shown in table B by the appropriate factors from Table C. To determine the standard error of an estimated number of births, both the total number of births in the area and the estimated number of births with a specified characteristic must be known.For estimated births with a specified characteristic by place of occurrence, the appropriate "Total births in the area" in table B is the number occurring in the area, e.g., city, county, or State.For the estimated total number of births and the number of births with a specified characteristic by place of residence, the number of births to residents of the State is used as the total births in the area. For example, consider an estimate of 25,000 births to women 20-25 years of age residing in a State which has an estimated total of 60,000 births to residents and for which all birth records are used in the data base. Table B shows that the standard errors for an estimate of 25,000 births is 111.8 and 154.1 for areas having 50,000 and 500,000 total births, respectively. Linear interpolation yields a value of 112.7 for the approximate standard error for an area having 60,000 total births when the estimate is based on a 50-percent sample. According to table C, the multiplier for resident births for States where records are not sampled is 0.41. Hence, the standard error for the estimate of 25,000 births to women 20-25 years of age residing in the State is approximately 46.2= (112.7) (0.41). For estimated numbers of births with specific characteristics by place of occurrence or residence, the standard errors derived from table B are accurate for those areas where 50-percent samples are used, but the errors are likely to be overstatements for areas which include,but are not restricted to, areas using a 50-percent sample for example, certain SMSA's. For estimated numbers of births by place of residence (both totals and by specific characteristics), the standard errors derived using tables B and C are overstatements for most non-sampled areas. The amount of overstatement in the error estimates is likely to be greater for areas which are not adjacent to States where 50- percent samples are used. The approximate relative standard error for rates is equivalent to the relative standard error of the numerator obtained using tables B and C. This is because the denominators are estimates which are considered to be without sampling errors (for example for the U.S., the populations of age-race-sex groups, States, SMSA's, or by month). The standard error for estimates of the difference between two estimates X*1 and X**2 may be calculated using SE(d) = SE**2(x*1) + SE**2(X**2) This formula represents the standard error quite accurately for the difference between separate and uncorrelated characteristics. When the characteristics are correlated, however, this formula overstates the standard error. The standard error for an estimate of the ratio R = X/Y may be approximated if the sample sizes are large enough for the ratio's variance to be valid. As a working rule, the variance formula may be used if Y exceeds 60 and is also large enough so that the relative standard errors (RSE's) for both X and Y are less than 0.10 or if RSE(Y) is less than 0.05. The RSE of an estimate (X or Y) is approximated by dividing the standard error by the estimate itself. In the following it is assumed that Y exceeds 60 and at least one of the two conditions of the RSE's is satisfied. The standard error for percent estimates where X is a subclass of the denominator Y may be calculated using: SE(R) = R RSE**2(X) -RES**2(Y) The standard error for estimates of means and other ratios where the numerator X is not a subclass of the denominator Y may be calculated using SE(R)= R RSE**2(X) + RSE**2(Y) Computation of Rates and Other Measures Population Bases Population estimates for 1981. --The population of the United States by age, race, and sex is published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 929, by State in Number 930, and by month in Number 931. 1982 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data Statistics for 45 States are based on the total file of records received on computer data tapes. Statistics for the remaining States (Arizona, California, Delaware, Georgia, and North Dakota) and the District of Columbia are based on a 50-percent sample of birth certificates. Classification of Data Geographic Classification Vital statistics data for cities and certain other urban places in 1982 are classified according to the population enumerated in the 1980 Census of Population. Classification of such areas for 1970-81 was determined by the population enumerated in the 1970 Census of Population. As a result of changes in the enumerated population between 1970 and 1980, some urban places identified in previous years are no longer included, while a number of other places have been added. Urban places other than incorporated cities for which vital statistics data are available include the following: * Each town in New England, New York, and Uisconsin and each township in Michigan, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania that had no incorporated municipality as a subdivision and had either 25,000 inhabitants or more, or a population of 10,000 to 25,000 and a density of 1,000 persons or more per square mile. * Each county in States other than those indicated above that had no incorporated municlpality within its boundaries and had a density of 1,500 persons or more per square mile. (Arlington County, Virginia, is the only county classified as urban under this rule.) * Each place in Hawaii with 10,000 or more population, as there are no incorporated cities in the State. Dates of Last Live Birth and Last Fetal Death Interval since last pregnancy and outcome of last pregnancy--Prior to 1982, the outcome of the last pregnancy was considered as not stated if either the interval since the last live birth or the last fetal death was not computed because only the year of the event was recorded. Beginning in 1982, outcome of last pregnancy was derived for such records if the year of the last live birth and the year of the last fetal death were not the same. The effect of this revised procedure is to reduce substantially the number of records with outcome of last pregnancy not stated. In addition, for these records, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was determined if both the month and year were reported for the event immediately preceding the current live birth. Prior to 1982, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was considered not stated for such births. Computation of Rates and Other Measures Population Bases Population estimates for 1982-The population of the United States by age, race, and sex is published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 949; by State in Number 951; and by month in Number 931. 1983 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data Statistics for 46 States are based on the total file of records received on computer data tapes. Statistics for the remaining States (Arizona, California, Delaware, and Georgia, and the District of Columbia are based on a 50-percent sample of birth certificates. Classification of Data Geographic Classification Beginning in 1982, vital statistics data for cities and certain other urban places are classified according to the population enumerated in the 1980 Census of Population. Classification of such areas for 1970-81 was determined by the population enumerated in the 1970 Census of Population. As a result of changes in the enumerated population between 1970 and 1980, some urban places identified in previous years are no longer included, while a number of other places have been added. Urban places other than incorporated cities for which vital statistics data are available include the following: * Each town in New England, New York, and Wisconsin and each township in Michigan, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania that had no incorporated municipality as a subdivision and had either 25,000 inhabitants or more, 1,500 persons or more per square mile. (Arlington County, Virginia, is the only county classified as urban under this rule.) * Each place in Hawaii with 10,000 or more population, as there are no incorporated cities in the State. Dates of Last Live Birth and Last Fetal Death Interval since last pregnancy and outcome of last pregnancy--Prior to 1982, the outcome of the last pregnancy was considered as not stated if either the interval since the last live birth or the last fetal death was not computed because only the year of the event was recorded. Beginning in 1982, outcome of last pregnancy was derived for such records if the year of the last live birth and the year of the last fetal death were not the same. The effect of this revised procedure is to reduce substantially the number of records with outcome of last pregnancy not stated. In addition, for these records, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was determined if both the month and year were reported for the event immediately preceding the current live birth. Prior to 1982, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was considered not stated for such births. Computer of Rates and Other Measures Population Bases Population estimates for 1982-The population of the United States by age, race, and sex is published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 949; by State in Number 951; and by month in Number 931. 1984 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data Statistics for 46 States are based on the total file of records received on cotter data tapes. Statistics for the raining States (Arizona, California, Delaware, and Georgia) and the District of Columbia are based on a 50-percent sale of birth certificates. Computation of Rates of Other Measures Population Bases Population estimates for 1983-The population of the United States by age, race, and sex is published in Current Population Reports, Series P-25, Number 965; by State in Number 970; and by month in Number 961. or a population of 10,000 to 25,000 and a density of 1,000 persons or more per square mile. * Each county in States other than those indicated above that had no incorporated municipality within its boundaries and had a density of 1,500 persons or more per square mile. (Arlington County, Virginia, is the only county classified as urban under this rule.) * Each place in Hawaii with 10,000 or more population, as there are no incorporated cities in the State. Dates of Last Live Birth and Last Fetal Death Interval since last pregnancy and outcome of last pregnancy--Prior to 1982, the outcome of the last pregnancy was considered as not stated if either the interval since the last live birth or the last fetal death was not computed because only the year of the event was recorded. Beginning in 1982, outcome of last pregnancy was derived for such records if the year of the last live birth and the year of the last fetal death were not the same. The effect of this revised procedure is to reduce substantially the number of records with outcome of last pregnancy not stated. In addition, for these records, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was determined if both the month and year were reported for the event immediately preceding the current live birth. Prior to 1982, the interval since the termination of the last pregnancy was considered not stated for such births. 1985 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Sources of Data Statistics for all States and the District of Columbia are based on the total file of records received on computer data tapes; no States are sampled at 50-percent rate. Therefore, the sections on sampling of birth records and reliability of estimates are not applicable to 1985 data. Classification of Data Marital Status Because of the substantial increase in all measures of nonmarital childbearing in 1985, an intensive evaluation of the national data was made. There has been continuing concern that the net method, incorporating data based on a comparison of surnames, might overstate the number of births to unmarried women, particularly among those women who have retained their maiden surname as their legal surname after marriage. The evaluation included comparisons of trends in all measures of births to unmarried mothers between 1980, when the new method was first put into use, and 1985. Trends in States with a marital status item on the birth certificate were compared with trends in those States providing inferential data based on a comparison of surnames, The comparisons were made for white and black births separately and by age of mother. The results were remarkably similar for both data sets. Nonmarital births increased at virtually the same rate in each set of States. The findings were similar for white and black women and for the various age-of-mother groups. Period of Gestation Beginning in 1985 gestation is computed from the first day of the last normal menstrual period for all States and the District of Columbia. 1986 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Classification of Data In 1986 there were no changes in the areas reporting educational attainment of parents, dates of last live birth and last other termination, number of prenatal visits, marital status of mother, 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores, ethnic origin, or Hispanic origin. Marital Status Because of the continued increase in all measures of nonmarital childbearing in 1986, the intensive evaluation of the national data which was performed in 1985 was repeated in 1986. There has been continuing concern that the new method, incorporating data based on a comparison of surnames, might overstate the number of births to unmarried women, particularly among those women who have retained their maiden surname as their legal surname after marriage. The evaluation included comparisons of trends in all measures of births to unmarried mothers between 1980, when the new method was first put into use, and 1986. Trends in States with a marital status item on the birth certificate were compared with trends in those States providing inferential data based on a comparison of surnames The comparisons were made for white and black births separately and by age of mother. The results were remarkably similar for both data sets. Nonmarital births increased at virtually the same rate in each set of States, The findings were similar for white and black women and for the various age-of-mother groups. 1987 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Classification of Data In 1987 there were no changes in the areas reporting educational attainment of parents, dates of last live birth and last other termination, number of prenatal visits, marital status of mother, 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores, ethnic origin, or Hispanic origin. The evaluation of the national marital status data per- formed in 1985 and 1986 was repeated in 1987. For a detailed description of the evaluation see the technical appendix. 1988 ADDENDUM TO TECHNICAL APPENDIX Classification of Data In 1988, there were no changes in the areas reporting dates of last live birth and last other termination, number of prenatal visits, and 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores. New York State (exclusive of New York City) became a nonreporting area with regard to educational attainment of parents. Montana added marital status of mother to its certificate so this item will no longer be inferred for that State. Seven additional States became reporting areas with regard to Hispanic origin. These States include Alabama, Connecticut, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Montana, North Carolina, and Washington. The evaluation of the national marital status data performed in 1985-87 was repeated in 1988. For a detailed description of the evaluation see the technical appendix. APPENDIX 1 - GEOGRAPHIC CODE OUTLINE EFFECTIVE WITH 1982 DATA General Information The following pages show in detail the geographic codes used by the Division of Vital Statistics in the processing of vital event data occurring in the United States. When an event occurs to a nonresident of the United States, residence data are coded only to the "State" level; several western hemisphere countries or the remainder of the world are uniquely identified. Along with the Division of Vital Statistics codes, the Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) codes are shown for several items. Both sets of codes are shown for several items. Both sets of codes appear on the vital event public-use files. Except for the Standard metropolitan Statistical Area (SMSA) codes, the vital statistics codes are effective with the 1982 data year and are based on results of the 1980 Census. Thes SMSA codes are effective with the 1980 data year and are also based on the 1980 Census . To aid the user in interpreting the geographic codes, a brief explanation of the codes and of the column headings/abbreviations shown on the following pages are: State (St):Each State and the District of Columbia are numbered alphabetically In addition, several unique codes are used to identify nonresidents of the U.S. County (Cnty): Counties and county equivalents (independent and coextensive cities) are numbered alphabetically within each State. SMSA:Standard metropolitan statistical areas are those established by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget(OMB)using final 1980 Census population counts. For New England, the New England County Metropolitan Areas (NECMA) are used. M/NM:Metropolitan counties (code 1) are component counties of SMSA's. Nonmetropolitan counties (code 2) are not part of any SMSA. City: Cities are numbered alphabetically within each State and identify each city with a population of 10,000 or more in 1980. P/S:Population size code for city of residence based on the 1980 Census. Refer to the code outline given earlier in this document for specific codes and meanings. Name:Each State, county, and city name is listed along with its respective code. In addition, places used to identify nonresidents of the U.S. are also listed along with their codes. FIPS:For an explanation of FIPS codes, reference should be made to various National Bureau of Standards (NBS) publications. So! How do I find Yavapai county, Arizona; or Tupelo city, Mississippi? Since counties and cities are numbered within State, the State and county or the State and city codes must be used to select these areas. It is most help ful if the county is known when looking for a particular city since areas are shown by State, county, and city. Yavapai county, Arizona - State and county codes 03 013. Tupelo,Mississippi - State and city codes 25 025 or State, county, city codes 25 041 025.
