Histoire des populations et histoire des savoirs demographiques
That Which Is “Not
This article adopts a poststructural perspective to challenge the legitimization given to the exclusionary study of “the apparent” in memory. It is our contention that this approach neglects the development of a necessary and concurrent understanding of the contribution provided by the “less-apparent”—forgetting. It is argued that our preoccupation with the apparent obscures the relationship between memory and forgetting, resulting in a misguided…
Skin Color and Intelligence in African Americans
Skin Color and the Perception of Attractiveness among African Americans
Using data from the National Survey of Black Americans (NSBA), this study develops and tests a theory of gendered colorism among African Americans. The NSBA was collected by black interviewers and includes data on survey respondents' skin color and interviewers' subjective assessment of respondents' physical attractiveness. These data allow for a unique investigation of how skin color consciously or unconsciously influences assessment of physical…
Race of the Interviewer and Perception of Skin Color
The influence of interviewers' race on skin color classification for white and African American survey respondents is explored using data from the Multi-City Study of Urban inequality (conducted 1992 to 1994). As hypothesized, bivariate and multivariate results reveal a compelling race-of-the-interviewer effect for both black and white respondents: White interviewers reported the skin tones of black respondents as substantially darker than did bl…
Age reporting among white Americans aged 85
This study investigates age reporting on the death certificates of older white Americans. We link a sample of death certificates for native-born whites aged 85+ in 1985 to Social Security Administration records and to records of the U.S. censuses of 1900, 1910, and 1920. When ages in these sources are compared, inconsistencies are found to be minimal, even beyond age 95. Results show little distortion and no systematic biases in the reported age …
Color Differences in the Socioeconomic Status of African American Men
Using a longitudinal design that links a sample of southern-reared African American men to their childhood census records (collected in 1920), this study attempts to replicate recent findings documenting the influence of skin color on the socioeconomic attainment of African Americans. The childhood census records used in this study classify African Americans as either black or mulatto, allowing for a unique investigation of color stratification i…
Multivariate survivorship analysis using two cross-sectional samples
As an alternative to survival analysis with longitudinal data, I introduce a method that can be applied when one observes the same cohort in two cross-sectional samples collected at different points in time. The method allows for the estimation of log-probability survivorship models that estimate the influence of multiple time-invariant factors on survival over a time interval separating two samples. This approach can be used whenever the surviva…
Casual dress is more than clothing in the workplace
With the broadening acceptability of casual dress in the workplace for many organizations in the United States, there is presently a window of opportunity to learn more about the cultures of these organizations undergoing such changes and the implications of relaxing the dress code. This research highlights the importance of the maneuvering within the medium of multiplicity of meanings associated with changes in workplace dress by way of a social…

Childhood conditions that predict survival to advanced ages among African-Americans
This paper investigates the social and economic circumstances of childhood that predict the probability of survival to age 85 among African-Americans. It uses a unique study design in which survivors are linked to their records in U.S. Censuses of 1900 and 1910. A control group of age and race-matched children is drawn from Public Use Samples for these censuses. It concludes that the factors most predictive of survival are farm background, having…
