 | Yu, Zhou | Assimilation and Rising Taiwanese Identity: Taiwan-born Immigrants in the United States, 1990-2000 | This study examines why a growing percentage of Taiwan-born immigrants in the U.S. have identified themselves as Taiwanese rather than ethnic Chinese in the U.S. decennial censuses between 1990 and 2000. The trend appears inconsistent with the assimilation theory, which postulates that ethnic groups... | Taiwanese; immigration; identity; economic status; United States | 2009-06-01 |

 | Smith, Ken R. | The association between adult mortality risk and family history of longevity: the moderating effects of socioeconomic status | Studies consistently show that increasing levels of socioeconomic status (SES) and having a familial history of longevity reduce the risk of mortality. But do these two variables interact, such that individuals with lower levels of SES, for example, may experience an attenuated longevity penalty by ... | 2014-01-01 | |
