What percentage of Jamaicans have any kind of mixed ancestry?

I know most Jamaicans are of African descent but what percentage of those people have any kind of European ancestry. (For example, 1/4 white or 1/8 white)

I am asking this question because Jamaica and Haiti both are predominately black nations but it is still possible to tell the difference between them.
Jamaica has a higher frequency of brown and light skinned people than Haiti, even though most people in both nations are darker skinned black people.

    Hey. I’m Jamaican….

    I would say that about 25% of Jamaicans have about 1/4 white in them…and probably like 1/8 native…

    but im not sure about the other 75%…the other half is probably a lot less..

    me personally I have like 1/8 to 1/4 native..and about 1/8 to 1/4 Scottish
