Pathways to Suicide
Earnings Differences between Old and New U.S. Immigrants
Recent investigations have noted that immigrants to the United States from Asian and Latin American countries (the new national origin countries) are not faring as well economically as immigrants from European countries. This study sets forth possible reasons these patterns obtain, one of which is that immigrants from the new countries have less of the characteristics associated with higher economic attainment than immigrants from the European co…
Still Another Look at Status Integration and Suicide
In a recent paper Schalkwyk, Lazer, and Cumming used data on British Columbia in a critique of the theory of status integration and suicide (Gibbs and Martin, a). Their conclusions raise serious questions about the theory, one conclusion being: "the magnitude of the correlations derived from the predictions are neither consistently significant nor meaningful' (1078). They go beyond findings to characterize the postulates of the theory as ambiguou…
Converting Education into Income and Occupational Status
This article extends an earlier investigation of differences among European immigrant groups in the United States in the extent to which they convert educational attainment into income. The size of the sample has been significantly enlarged, making it possible to include more ethnic groups and to increase the number of factors taken into account. The present analysis examines the conversion of educational achievement into income and into occupati…

Differentials in the Ability to Convert Education into Income
This paper investigates the extent to which European immigrant groups to the United States differentially convert their educational attainment into income. Particular attention is given to variations among 1st generation immigrants and three types of second generation immigrants. We find that 2nd generation male immigrants with foreign-born fathers and native-born mothers are best able to convert their education into income. Empirical analyses re…

On Assessing the Theory of Status Integration and Suicide
SOCIOLOGICAL theories in general suffer from two defects. First, only rarely is a theory stated formally, i.e., in such a way that its logical structure is made explicit. Second, whether stated formally or not, most sociological theories defy systematic test. Consequently, in formulating the theory of status integration and suicide,' we attempted to state it formally and also to do what Durkheim did not do-create a theory that can be tested syste…

The students acquired a more informed image of war, and a greater concern with it as a problem. Moreover, some 85% showed an increase in scores on the nuclear knowledge scale, and over 90% showed an increase in scores on the pacifism scale. Clearly, under the circumstances of the pilot studies, knowledg…
A Theory of Status Integration and Its Relationship to Suicide
THIS paper explicates a theory that attempts to account for differences in suicide rates of societies and other population categories. While the theory is directly concerned with variability in suicide rates,1 it has implications of a broad theoretical nature and may prove to be of value in the analysis of behavior other than suicide. In a general sense, the theory represents an attempt to approach the problem of deviant behavior from a point of …
Urbanization and Natural Resources
Toward a Theoretical System of Human Ecology
There is no aspect of society that is in greater need of sociological study than is man's increasingly efficient organization for providing himself with a quantity and variety of material goods. In recent decades human ecology has been the most notable attempt by sociologists to develop an analytical framework encompassing this sector of collective human behavior. But so widely accepted has become the self evident truth that the early great expec…

Ecological Change in Satellite Rural Areas
Technological and organizational changes are apparently crucial in determining both numerical and distributional changes in population. The outward shift of residential population measured in recent studies can be viewed as one aspect of an important modification in the internal organization of the modern urban community. Under the impetus of technological advances in transportation and communication, the compact city is a thing of the past. Incr…
The Structuring of Social Relationships Engendered by Suburban Residence
T iS the major objective of this paper to examine the characteristics of suburban communities as they relate to the structuring of ' of the resident populations. This presumes that the form taken by these phenomena in suburban communities somehow differs from the form to be observed in other types of communities, and, furthermore, that this difference is engendered by the suburban situation. The writer knows of no published research which provide…

Status Integration and Suicide in Ceylon
The theory of status integration, a further development of Durkheim's work on social integration provides a quantitative measure which makes it possible to test the following theorem: The suicide rate of a population varies inversely with the degree of status integration. This was tested in ethnic groups and provinces in Ceylon. The support provided for the theorem raises questions about the utility of the concept of culture in explaining variati…

Continuing Urbanization on the Pacific Coast
In the Pacific Coast region, the third most urbanized section of the nation, urbanization continues at a rapid rate. It takes the form of continued massing of population in a few counties. Both urban and rural non-farm populations grow most rapidly in counties already most highly urbanized, while most counties lose rural farm population. The trend in distribution of urban population by size of place differ markedly among the individual states
