The document evaluates the comparability of reporting between birth certificates and the National Natality Survey questionnaires, focusing on various demographic and health-related items such as parental age, education, number of children, fetal deaths, birth weight, length of pregnancy, and prenatal care. It highlights significant variations in reporting accuracy across different items, with some showing high agreement (e.g., age of mother) while others exhibit lower reliability (e.g., prenatal visits). The findings are based on data collected from a sample of births in 1972 and aim to assess the quality of birth certificate data for public health research.
