"This matters because it has the added implication that poverty rates have been misestimated due to misreporting in surveys, and that misestimation has contributed to the appearance of poverty among Blacks and Hispanics relative to Asians and Whites." Important correction.
"measurement error is greater for Blacks and Hispanics than for Asians and Whites."
In absolute terms, sure, but in relative terms we have 43.8%, 39.3%, 46.5%, and 41.8% under-estimates respectively in Study 2. So, if anything, it seems more accurate to say that measurement error in Study 2 is greater for Asians and Blacks than for Hispanics and Whites. It seems like the groups under-report at more similar rates, and the disparities in absolute errors mostly reflects large differences in receipt rate.
"Whites averaged a reported receipt of $3,324 ($3,409) versus a true average of $3,660 ($3,607). For Blacks, these figures were $3,648 ($3,825) and $4,080 ($4,172); for Hispanics, they were $3,576 ($3,528) and $4,092 ($3,638); and for Asians, they were $3,708 ($2,803) and $3,912 ($3,286)."
Is this average out of everyone in each racial group, or only out of everyone in each racial group who receives SNAP benefits? And is this the same for TANF and UI?
"Another that I find interesting is that more extreme response styles are related to lower intelligence ...." That is my rule-of-thumb impression on X

Average among recipients.
Anyone have a copy of the Dutton and Kierkegaard article?
