Explaining the Effect of Parent-Child Coresidence on Marriage Formation: The Case of Japan
Duke University Press - Tập 53 - Trang 1283-1318 - 2016
Wei-hsin Yu, Janet Chen-Lan Kuo
Many single adult children in countries around the world live with their parents. Such coresidence has been thought to delay the transition to first marriage, although the exact reasons for the delay have not been sufficiently examined. Using panel data from Japan, we investigate whether changes in never-married adults’ residential status lead to alterations in their marital aspirations, courtship...... hiện toàn bộ
Race and ethnicity in housing: Turnover in New York City, 1978–1987
Duke University Press - - 1992
Emily Rosenbaum
Abstract This study examines the patterns and predictors of housing turnovers among non-Hispanic whites, non-Hispanic blacks, Puerto Ricans, and other Hispanics in New York City during 1978–1987 to assess whether access to housing is distributed differentially by race and ethnicity. The data are taken from the triennial New York City Housing and Vaca...... hiện toàn bộ
Metropolitan deconcentration: Subareal inmigration and central city to ring moiillty patterns among southern SMSAs
Duke University Press - Tập 15 - Trang 589-603 - 1978
Jeanne C. Bitgar, Francis C. Biasiolli
The analysis of in-migration streams and subareal residential mobility patterns for moves made between 1965 and 1970in SMSAs in the East South Central and South Atlantic census divisions indicates that, despite their historical contexts, these metropolitan areas now show spatial differentiation patterns similar to those of the great cities of the Northeast. The white population has increased in ri...... hiện toàn bộ
Effects Of Variation In Field Personnel On Census Results*
Duke University Press - Tập 2 - Trang 8-32 - 1965
Barbara A. Powell, Leon Pritzker
Como parte del Programa de Evaluaciónn e Investigación del Censo de Población de 1960, el Estudio de la Variancia de las Respuestas tenia por objeto medir la contribución de los entrevistadores y de sus superoisores inmediatos (crew leaders) en la variabilidad ajena al muestreo que presenian los datos censalee. La variancia de las reepuestas de una esiadisiica disminuye a medida que aumenta el num...... hiện toàn bộ
Disability Among Native-born and Foreign-born Blacks in the United States
Duke University Press - Tập 48 - Trang 241-265 - 2011
Irma T. Elo, Neil K. Mehta, Cheng Huang
Using the 5% Public Use Micro Data Sample (PUMS) from the 2000 U.S. census, we examine differences in disability among eight black subgroups distinguished by place of birth and Hispanic ethnicity. We found that all foreign-born subgroups reported lower levels of physical activity limitations and personal care limitations than native-born blacks. Immigrants from Africa reported lowest levels of dis...... hiện toàn bộ
Dynamics of some special populations with NRR = 1
Duke University Press - Tập 15 - Trang 559-569 - 1978
Young J. Kim, Zenas M. Sykes
We discuss two special cases of population dynamics with changing vital rates subject to the constraint NRR = I and consider the specifics of ergodicity and stationarity. By restricting the number of age groups to two, we can make explicit the way weak ergodicity works. When mortality is constant and the period NRR = I, a life-table stationary population eventually results; everything of demograph...... hiện toàn bộ
Geographic Variation in the Cumulative Risk of Imprisonment and Parental Imprisonment in the United States
Duke University Press - - 2016
Christopher Muller, Christopher Wildeman
Abstract This article reports estimates of the cumulative risk of imprisonment and parental imprisonment for demographic groups in four regions and four states. Regional and state-level cumulative risks were markedly higher for African Americans and Latinos than for whites. African Americans faced the highest cumulative risks of imprisonment in the M...... hiện toàn bộ
Estimation of contraceptive continuation functions
Duke University Press - Tập 8 - Trang 335-339 - 1971
William J. Kelly
Abstract-Evidence from Puerto Rico supports the hypothesis that the continuation rate has a decay form rather than a reciprocal form. As indicated in the literature, there was evidence that the continuation rate tends to vary not only with time but also with the age of the patient at acceptance. It was found that the fit of the continuation function could be improved substantially by making the ef...... hiện toàn bộ
Sampling variability of own-children fertility estimates
Duke University Press - - 1977
Robert D. Retherford, Neil G. Bennett
Abstract This paper develops methodology for estimating standard errors and confidence intervals for own-children estimates of age-specific birth rates and total fertility rates. The methodology applies to systematic samples of households, which are treated as simple random samples of women. The assumption of simple random selection, together with th...... hiện toàn bộ
Calculating life tables by estimating Chiang’s a from observed rates
Duke University Press - - 1978
Robert Schoen
Abstract A simple, accurate method of life table construction is advanced based upon a new way to estimate Chiang’s nax (the average number of years lived in the x to x + n age interval by those dying in the interval). The estimate for nax leads immediately to an expression for lx+n (the survivors to age x + n) in terms of lx and the known mortality ...... hiện toàn bộ
