1980 年，美国人口普查首次包含有关种族认同的主观问题。自然增长、通婚和主观认同促成了每个民族目前的规模。对英国、爱尔兰、德国和意大利裔人口的模拟显示了到达时间、总体生育率和死亡率趋势以及决定自然增长的差异生育率之间的相互作用。对某些族裔群体（特别是爱尔兰人和德国人）的主观认同超过了自然增长所暗示的程度，而对其他族裔群体的认同则低于人口过程所暗示的程度。民族宗教通婚的对数线性模型表明，宗教多样性是爱尔兰和德国身份传播的重要因素，而英国和意大利人的相对宗教同质性限制了这些身份的传播。主观成分是该分析中的残差。
In 1980, for the first time, the U.S. Census contained a subjective question about ethnic identity. Natural increase, intermarriage, and subjective identification contribute to the current size of each ethnic group. Simulations for the British-, Irish-, German-, and Italian-origin populations show the interaction among time of arrival, overall fertility and mortality trends, and differential fertility in determining natural increase. The subjective identification with some ethnic groups, notably the Irish and Germans, exceeds what natural increase would imply, while identification with other ethnic groups falls short of what demographic processes would imply. Loglinear models of ethno-religious intermarriage show that religious diversity is an important factor in the diffusion of Irish and German identities, while the relative religious homogeneity of the British and Italians limits the diffusion of those identities. The subjective component is a residual in this analysis.
