Notes:

Data for objectives 6-1, 6-7a and b, 6-9, and 6-13a through h are unavailable or not applicable.

Years in parentheses represent the baseline data year and the most recent data year (if available).

Disparity from the best group rate is defined as the percent difference between the best group rate and each of the other group rates for a characteristic (for example, race and ethnicity). The summary index is the average of these percent differences for a characteristic. Change in disparity is estimated by subtracting the disparity at baseline from the disparity at the most recent data point. Change in the summary index is estimated by subtracting the summary index at baseline from the summary index at the most recent data point. See Technical Appendix for more information.


The best group rate at the most recent data point. The group with the best rate for specified characteristic. The group with

Less than 10 percent difference from the best group rate or not statistically significant Less than 10 percent or not statistically significant 10-49 percent difference from the best group rate 10-49 percent 50-99 percent difference from the best group rate 50-99 percent 100 percent or more percent difference from the best group rate 100 percent or more
   
Increase in disparity (percentage points)
Changes in disparity over time are shown when the change is greater than or equal to 10 percentage points and statistically significant, or when the change is greater than or equal to 10 percentage points and estimates of variability were not available. Increase in disparity: 10-49 percentage points 10-49 Increase in disparity: 50-99 percentage points 50-99 Increase in disparity: 100 or more percentage points 100 or more

* The variability of best group rates was assessed, and disparities of ≥ 10% are statistically significant at the 0.05 level. Changes in disparity over time, noted with arrows, are statistically significant at the 0.05 level. See Technical Appendix.
1 Baseline data are for ages 4-11 years.
2 Baseline data by race and ethnicity are for 1999.
