ERRATA In: Subramanian SV, Chen JT, Rehkopf DH, Waterman PD, Krieger N. Racial disparities in context: a multilevel analysis of neighborhood variations in poverty and excess mortality among Black populations in Massachusetts. Am J Public Health. 2005;95:260–265. doi:10.2105/AJPH.2003.034132.

Two tables were formatted in a potentially misleading manner. The stub heads for 2 sections of TABLE 2—Odds Ratios and 95% Confidence Intervals for Fixed Parameters From Models 1, 2, and 3 Analyzing Neighborhood Heterogeneity in Associations Between Mortality, Race/Ethnicity, and Area Poverty: Massachusetts, 1989–1991 (p263) should have been formatted as follows (presenting only the heads, as the data do not change):


Individual-level predictors
Interaction effect
    Male x 15–24 y
    Black x 15–24 y
    Other x 15–24 y
    Male x 25–44 y
    Black x 25–44 y
    Other x 25–44 y
    Male x 45–64 y
    Black x 45–64 y
    Other x 45–64 y
    Male x ≥ 65 y
    Black x ≥ 65 y
    Other x ≥ 65 y
    Male x Black
    Male x Other
Cross-level interaction effect (individual race and CT poverty)
Black x 5%–9.9% poverty
Black x 10%–19.9% poverty
Black x 20%–100% poverty
Other x 5%–9.9% poverty
Other x 10%–19.9% poverty
Other x 20%–100% poverty

Note that the reference row for White x 0%–4.9% poverty should have been deleted.

The stub heads in TABLE 3—Random Parameters at the Census Tract (CT) and Bl\ ock Group (BG) Levels From Models 1, 2, and 3 Analyzing Neighborhood Heterogeneity in Associations Between Mortality, Race/Ethnicity, and Area Poverty: Massachusetts, 1989–1991 (p264) should have been formatted as follows:


Estimate (SE)
Model 1 Model 2 Model 3
Between-CT variation
    Constant/constant ({sigma}2{nu}0) 0.095 (0.005) 0.085 (0.005) 0.066 (0.004)
    Constant/Black ({sigma}2{nu}0{nu}1) . . . 0.050 (0.015) –0.017a (0.012)
    Black/Black ({sigma}2{nu}1) . . . 0.337 (0.053) 0.158 (0.034)
    Constant/other ({sigma}2{nu}0{nu}2) . . . 0.054 (0.016) –0.034 (0.013)
    Black/other ({sigma}2{nu}1{nu}2) . . . 0.136 (0.047) 0.028a (0.030)
    Other/other ({sigma}2{nu}2) . . . 0.325 (0.064) 0.120 (0.040)
Between-BG variation constant/constant ({sigma}2u0) 0.111 (0.004) 0.111 (0.004) 0.1083 (0.004)
Cell-level dispersion 1.399 (0.007) 1.405 (0.007) 1.442 (0.007)
Please see the original tables for table notes.
