IMMIGRATION, ETHNICITY AND THE FAMILY--1900-1920

描述（改编自申请人的摘要）：本研究检查了家庭 行为-民族通婚和父母的生活安排 1900年到1920年间芝加哥人的成年子女。它使用两种类型 的数据.第一个是人口普查公共使用样本系列， 1900-1910-1920，横截面分析。第二个是6500名男性的样本 和妇女从1920年IPUMS和链接回他们的记录在 1910年和1900年人口普查，使用标准的家谱方法。这些数据将 分析为三波面板。 要解决的主要问题来自同化模型， 移民适应。这个模型假设了一个不断增长的过程 与东道国社会特有的家庭模式相似。的证据 这一过程可以在新老移民之间差异中找到 在美国，群体、个体之间的差异是按年或世代划分的（或者， （北方黑人），以及同化的其他关键指标的影响 例如职业和居住地点、入籍和语言 该研究区分了种族和民族群体（基于种族，州 或出生国，和母语）根据世代（对于黑人， 比较是在第一代、第二代和以后的一代北方人之间;对于 白人，这是第一，第二，和后代美国人之间）。 异族通婚和生活的横截面模型的主要创新 关于种族隔离安排的一个重要问题是， 邻里和工作在一个民族利基的劳动力，这两者都是 被解释为种族关系强度的指标（或者，相反， 文化适应）。使用面板数据来研究这些相同的主题是独一无二的， 历史研究，并允许一些固有的限制，一个横截面 分析要克服。

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.
