Abstract

The original paper is a national scale study of the relationship between COVID-19 incidence and disability characteristics (by demographic) in the United States. The paper aims to determine whether COVID-19 incidence is more significant in counties with larger proportions of socio-demographically disadvantaged people with disabilities, based on race, ethnicity, poverty status, and biological sex.

This study is a replication of:

Chakraborty, J. 2021. Social inequities in the distribution of COVID-19: An intra-categorical analysis of people with disabilities in the U.S. Disability and Health Journal 14:1-5. DOI:10.1016/j.dhjo.2020.101007

Study Metadata

• Key words: Comma-separated list of keywords (tags) for searchability. Geographers often use one or two keywords each for: theory, geographic context, and methods.
• Subject: select from the BePress Taxonomy
• Date created: date when project was started
• Date modified: date of most recent revision
• Spatial Coverage: Specify the geographic extent of your study. This may be a place name and link to a feature in a gazetteer like GeoNames or OpenStreetMap, or a well known text (WKT) representation of a bounding box.
• Spatial Resolution: Specify the spatial resolution as a scale factor, description of the level of detail of each unit of observation (including administrative level of administrative areas), and/or or distance of a raster GRID size
• Spatial Reference System: Specify the geographic or projected coordinate system for the study
• Temporal Coverage: Specify the temporal extent of your study---i.e. the range of time represented by the data observations.
• Temporal Resolution: Specify the temporal resolution of your study---i.e. the duration of time for which each observation represents or the revisit period for repeated observations

Compendium structure and contents

This research compendium is structured with four main directories:

• data: contains subdirectories for raw data and derived data.
• docs: contains subdirectories for manuscript, presentation, and report
• procedure: contains subdirectories for code or software scripts, information about the computational environment in which the research was conducted, and non-code research protocols
• results: contains subdirectories for figures, formatted data tables, or other formats of research results.

The data, procedures, and results of this repository are outlined in three tables:

• Data: data/data_index.csv
• Procedures: procedure/procedure_index.csv
• Results: results/results_index.csv

Important local documents include:

• Pre-analysis plan: docs/report/preanalysis.pdf
