摘要

摘要本文使用一项观察性研究的基线数据来估计肥胖中种族和性别差异的决定因素。明尼阿波利斯和罗利的低收入工人样本显示，明尼阿波利斯的受访者体重指数（BMI）低于罗利的受访者。BMI估计中存在巨大的、统计上显著的种族和性别影响，这解释了这两个城市之间的大部分差异。考虑到交叉性——黑人和女性的共同影响——表明明尼阿波利斯和罗利黑人女性之间几乎所有的BMI差距都可以用年龄和教育差异来解释。

The determinants of racial disparities in obesity: baseline evidence from a natural experiment

Abstract This article uses baseline data from an observational study to estimate the determinants of racial and gender disparities in obesity. Samples of low-income workers in Minneapolis and Raleigh reveal that respondents in Minneapolis have lower body mass indices (BMIs) than respondents in Raleigh. There are large, statistically significant race and gender effects in estimates of BMI that explain most of the disparity between the two cities. Accounting for intersectionality—the joint impacts of being Black and a woman—reveals that almost all the BMI gaps between Black women in Minneapolis and Raleigh can be explained by age and education differences.
