Tablenote 1 Canadian Housing Statistics Program (CHSP) – Record linkage results per province and territory, 2023. Return to tablenote 1 referrer Tablenote 2 Linkage Rate: The linkage rate is calculated as the percentage of owner records with accepted links to the database shown. While it is not a data quality indicator alone, in addition to the FDR and the false negative error rate (FNR) it provides a complete picture of the overall linkage quality. Linkage rates increased in most provinces and territories in 2024 compared to the previous year due to the improvements in the methodology. Return to tablenote 2 referrer Tablenote 3 False Discovery Rate (FDR): The FDR is calculated as the percentage of records with false links among records with accepted links (i.e., a record with a false link is a record that was linked incorrectly). Return to tablenote 3 referrer Tablenote 4 False Negative error Rate (FNR): The FNR is calculated as the percentage of records with true links among those that were not found in the linkage process (i.e., records that were not linked when they should have been). Return to tablenote 4 referrer Tablenote 5 The FDR and FNR rates were derived based on quality assessments of previous reference years. Return to tablenote 5 referrer
