Temporal changes in HIV-related stigma and sexual behaviours
Despite non-trivial success against the HIV epidemic, health experts in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) remain concerned about new infections, stigma attitudes, and increasing rates of higher-risk sexual behaviours (HRSBs). Although this concern has produced voluminous scholarship on the behavioural consequences of belonging to stigmatised populations, scholars have only recently examined the behavioural consequences of holding stigmatising attitudes . …
The Great Separation
Earnings segregation at work is an understudied topic in social science, despite the workplace being an everyday nexus for social mixing, cohesion, contact, claims making, and resource exchange. It is all the more urgent to study as workplaces, in the last decades, have undergone profound reorganizations that could affect the magnitude and evolution of earnings segregation. Analyzing linked employer-employee panel administrative databases, the au…
HIV stigma beliefs and unprotected sex among teenagers and young adults in sub-Saharan Africa
Rising between-workplace inequalities in high-income countries
Significance Understanding the causes of rising inequality is of concern in many countries. Using administrative data, we find that the share of inequality that is between workplaces is growing in 12 of 14 countries examined, and in no country has it fallen. Countries with declining employment protections see growth in both between- and within-workplace inequalities, but this impact is stronger for between-workplace inequalities. These results su…
HIV stigma beliefs in context
Occupational status and organizations
A foundational claim in social stratification research is that occupational hierarchies are largely invariant across societies, a phenomenon known as the Treiman constant. However, recent research in social stratification has focused on the role of local social spaces in generating inequalities, casting doubt on the validity of the idea of a universally invariant occupational hierarchy. In this paper, we focus on organizations as a local space in…
Safety in stigmatizing? Instrumental stigma beliefs and protective sexual behavior in Sub-Saharan Africa
Residential hierarchy in Los Angeles
Spurred to Action or Retreat? The Effects of Reception Contexts on Naturalization Decisions in Los Angeles
Undocumented immigration has been linked to a wave of anti-immigrant legislation during the early 1990s. California led the way by passing Proposition 187, which many suspect led legal immigrants to naturalize. No research has confirmed this suspicion. I argue that the years before, during, and after the legislation's passage and the strength of the labor market represent two contexts of reception in which immigrants reside, which determine natur…
Reexamining the ethnic hierarchy of locational attainment
What happened to familial acculturation
While theoretical work focusing on immigrant language acculturation suggests that both parental and child's understanding of English are needed to measure acculturation, analysts have instead focused on child bilingualism. I develop a measure of familial acculturation and conceptually distinguish it from child bilingualism. I then determine whether several child and parental variables influence these measures differently, which would provide evid…
Bad Jobs, Good Jobs, No Jobs? The Employment Experience of the Mexican American Second Generation
Concern with the prospects and experience of the ‘new’ second generation now stands at the top of the immigration research agenda in the United States. In contrast to the past, many immigrant offspring appear to be rapidly heading upward, exemplified by the large number of Chinese, Korean, Indian and other Asian-origin students enrolled in the nation's leading universities, some the children of workers, others the descendants of immigrants who mo…
Welcoming new Americans
In a little noticed decision announced in mid-March, 2014, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to review two federal appellate decisions that struck down local immigration enforcement ordinances in Haz
