Query Builder Page Options

  • Selecting Geography

    Select the geographic areas you want to include. Hold down the control (ctrl) key to make multiple selections.

    Select geographic area(s) (mother's residence). (Default is all New Mexico counties.)

  • What year grouping do you want to select? Default is the 5 most recent years.

  • Selecting years

    Select a range of years. Use Ctrl to make multiple selections.

    The year groupings you select here will be used to display your results if you choose "year" below in the display the results step. For instance, if you choose "Single years" here, and choose "Year/Year Groups" in the display the results step, your query results will be displayed for single years, for the range of years you selected. If you select "3-year groups", "5-year groups" or if you enter custom year groups, your query results will be aggregated within those year groups.

Jump to Submit

  • Would you like to include only males or only females in the results? Default includes both sexes.

Jump to Submit

  • Select other characteristics of the mother that you would like to include in your analysis. The default is all characteristics.

  • New Mexico Race/Ethnicity Coding

    Starting in 2000, the New Mexico Department of Health developed recommendations for standard categories for the presentation of data by race and Hispanic ethnicity.

    For purposes of presentation, race and ethnicity will be presented together using the following five major categories and labels:

    American Indian or Alaska Native

    Asian or Pacific Islander

    Black or African American

    Hispanic

    White

    The Hispanic category includes no other races but White. The White category may be interpreted as "White, non-Hispanic." And the non-White race categories include both Hispanic and non-Hispanic persons.

Primary group by field

Defines the data's primary grouping dimension. The primary grouping is required and also controls the ordering of the result's data rows. In MS-Excel and other graphing packages this is typically referred to as the the "dataset's category". If viewing in a 2-d table layout then this value/dimension is associated with table's "row" values. Others will refer to this value as the first "cross by" or the first dimension.

Optional secondary group by field

Defines the 2nd field (or dimension) to be used to group and aggregate values by. MS-Excel chart users will commonly refer to this as the dataset's "series" field. If viewing in a 2-d table layout then this field is associated with data table's value columns. Series group bys are optional. Maps and some charts, like the "Pie" chart, are currently not programmed to handle datasets that have more than one group by e.g. they only work with the primary category type group by being specified.

Optional chart graph

Defines the optional chart graphic to display.

NOTE: Maps and some charts, like the "Pie" chart, are currently not programmed to handle datasets that have more than one group by e.g. they only work with the primary category type group by being specified. All other charts will only work with a maximum of 2 group bys e.g. if the fixed group by exists then the series group by can NOT be used with charting or maps.

Optional Map Visualization

Defines the optional map graphic to display.

NOTE: Maps are only available when the category is set to a geographical area and does not have a series defined.
