Abstract
The U.S. population is increasingly diverse, with less than half of all children identifying as non-Hispanic White. It is imperative health care providers and researchers further their awareness of how race and structural racism contribute to pervasive, systemic health disparities among children and their families so that steps can be taken to alleviate health inequities. This paper examines data disaggregation, on the basis of race and ethnicity, as a research tool to examine the heterogeneity of the pediatric population, identifies strategies for conducting research with disaggregated data, and provides examples of research in which data disaggregation has increased knowledge of racial and ethnic inequities in pediatric health and health care delivery.
