IMMIGRATION, ETHNICITY AND THE FAMILY--1900-1920

描述(摘自申请者的摘要)：这项研究考察了家庭 行为--族际通婚与其父母的生活安排 1900至1920年间芝加哥人的成年子女。它使用两种排序 数据。第一个是IPUMS公共使用普查样本系列， 1900-1910-1920，横截面分析。第二个是6500人的样本 和妇女从1920年的IPUMS，并链接回她们的记录在 1910年和1900年人口普查，使用标准的家谱方法。这些数据将是 分析为三波面板。 要解决的主要问题来自于 移民适应。这个模型假设了一个增长的过程。 与东道主社会的家庭模式相似。证据： 这一过程体现在新老移民之间的差异上。 群体，个人之间的差异，按年份或世代在美国(或， 对于北方的黑人来说)，以及其他关键同化指标的影响 例如职业和居住位置、入籍和说话 这项研究区分了种族和民族(基于种族、国家 或出生国和母语)按代(对于黑人， 这是第一代和第二代及以后的北方人之间的比较； 白人，它是在第一代、第二代和以后的美国人之间)。 异族通婚和异居横断面模型的主要创新 安排是包括在一个民族居住的信息 社区和在劳动力的种族利基中工作，这两个都是 被解释为种族关系强弱的指标(或相反， 文化适应)。使用面板数据来研究这些相同的主题对于 历史研究，并允许一些固有的限制横截面 需要克服的分析。

DESCRIPTION (Adapted from applicant's abstract): This study examines the family behaviors- ethnic intermarriage and living arrangements of parents of their grown children - of people in Chicago between 1900 and 1920. It uses two sorts of data. The first is the series of IPUMS public use samples of the census, 1900-1910-1920, analyzed cross-sectionally. The second is a sample of 6500 men and women drawn from the 1920 IPUMS and linked back to their records in the 1910 and 1900 census, using standard genealogical methods. These data will be analyzed as a three-wave panel. The principal questions to be addressed arise from the assimilation model of immigrant migrant adaptation. This model posits a process of increasing similarity to the family patterns characterizing the host society. Evidence of such a process would be found in differences between older and newer immigrant groups, differences among individuals by years or generations in the U.S. (or, for blacks, in the North), and effects of other key indicators of assimilation such as occupational and residential location, naturalization, and speaking English the study distinguishes racial and ethnic groups (based on race, state or country of birth, and mother tongue) according to generation (for blacks, the comparison is between 1st and 2nd and later generation Northerners; for whites, it is between 1st, 2nd, and later generation Americans). The principal innovation in cross-sectional models of intermarriage and living arrangements is the inclusion of information on residence in an ethnic neighborhood and work in an ethnic niche of the labor force, both of which are interpreted as indicators of the strength of ethnic ties (or, inversely, of acculturation). The use of panel data to study these same topics is unique for historical studies, and allows some inherent limitations of a cross-sectional analysis to be overcome.
