A Replication of Dimaggio Et Al. (2020) in Phoenix, AZ
Beschreibung:
This research replicates the study of DiMaggio et al. (2020) which investigates the associations between positive COVID-19 tests and demographic, socioeconomic, and racial characteristics in New York City at the ZIP Code Tabulation Area level. This research directly replicates DiMaggio et al. (2020) in Phoenix, Arizona during that city’s first wave of COVID-19; May 31, 2020 to August 1, 2020. We extend that work and complete a conceptual replication by introducing covariates appropriate to the context of Phoenix, AZ. Our direct replication demonstrates that the framework used by DiMaggio et al. can be transferred across cities, but also identifies specification decisions from the original analysis that need careful consideration. Our conceptual replication identifies the proportion of Hispanic residents rather than that of Black/African American residents to be a key predictor of positive COVID-19 testing. This finding sheds light on the dynamixs of race during the pandemic
