... Average absolute difference: the sum over all counties of the absolute (unsigned) difference between the model estimate of poor school-age children and the 1990 census estimate for each county, divided by the number of counties (3,141)
From page 134...
... and (4) , the counties are grouped into categories of the following characteristics: census division; metropolitan status of county; population size in 1990; population growth from 1980 to 1990; percent poor school-age children in the 1980 census; percent Hispanic population in 1990; percent black population in 1990; persistent poverty from 1960 to 1990 for rural counties; economic type for rural counties; percent group quarters residents in 1990; whether the county had households in the CPS sample; and percent change from 1980 to 1990 in the proportion of poor school-age children.2 Tables D-1 and D2 show the number of counties in each category.
From page 135...
... The additional detail in Tables D-1 and D-2 is presented without commentary. 3The estimates from the four candidate models and the models considered in the first round of evaluations, listed below, are the final estimates for all counties, after the initial estimates from the county regression model are combined in a "shrinkage procedure" with direct CPS estimates for those counties with households in the CPS sample and raked for consistency with the estimates from the state model; see Chapter 2.

... For the first round of evaluations the census estimates were not ratio-adjusted to make the census national estimate of poor school-age children in 1989 equal to the corresponding CPS total for 1989, unlike the situation with the evaluations of the candidate models and other procedures described above. Thus, the results of the first round of evaluations given in Tables D-3 to D-5 cannot be directly compared with those for the later round.

... . The use of 1990 population estimates instead of 1990 census figures to convert estimated proportions from the three rate models to estimated numbers increases the average absolute difference in the estimated number of poor school-age children by 8-10 percent and increases the average proportional absolute difference by about 6 percent for the log rate and rate models and 12 percent for the hybrid log rate-number model.
From page 150...
... , indicating that the overprediction is more pronounced for smaller counties than larger counties in that geographic area.6 Further investigation is required to determine the reasons for the variations across divisions, which could include sampling variability in the CPS for 1989 or a specification problem in the state model (see Chapter 4~. Metropolitan Status The category differences and proportional category differences in the predicted number of poor school-age children vary somewhat for counties categorized by metropolitan status.
From page 151...
... The variations in the proportional category differences for counties characterized by percent Hispanic population are statistically significant for all models with this pattern that were tested. The differences in the patterns for the two measures may occur because the models behave differently for small counties with many Hispanics (primarily rural border counties)
From page 152...
... This pattern, which appears for both category difference measures, is statistically significant for the proportional category difference measure (Table D-5. Economic Type, Rural Counties The category differences and proportional category differences in the predicted number of poor school-age children vary for all models for rural counties categorized by their principal economic activity.
From page 153...
... Summary of Category Differences Three of the eleven characteristics examined show no pronounced patterns of overprediction or underprediction of the number of poor school-age children for any of the models: percent poor school-age children from the 1980 census; percent black population in 1990; and persistent rural poverty from 1960 to 1990. Four characteristics show patterns for all or all but one model in which some categories of counties are over~under~predicted relative to other counties: 1- · .
