  • Criminalizing homelessness

    Open Access•Jessie Chien, Benjamin F Henwood et al.•ARTICLE•Social Science & Medicine•2026

    Cities across the United States are relying more on criminalization policies—including laws targeting behaviors deemed disruptive to public order, such as sleeping or camping in public spaces—to remove visible homelessness. How the enforcement of these policies impacts the health of unhoused people is unclear. The present study leverages monthly survey data from a prospective cohort of unhoused individuals in Los Angeles County (n=731) to examine…

  • Sociodemographic trends associated with caesarean delivery in rural subdistricts of Bangladesh

    Open Access•Anisur Rahman, Kimberly Clair et al.•ARTICLE•BMJ Global Health•2025

    INTRODUCTION: Although an appropriate population range for caesarean section (CS) has been debated, the WHO recommends national CS rates be between 10% and 15%. Yet rates are much higher in many low-income and middle-income countries, including Bangladesh. These studies also reveal wide disparities in CS use by geographic location and sociodemographic conditions. Nevertheless, few studies have the sample size and temporal precision necessary to m…

  • Predicting hotspots of unsheltered homelessness using geospatial administrative data and volunteered geographic information

    Open Access•Jessie Chien, Benjamin F Henwood et al.•ARTICLE•Health & Place•2024•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 9

    Unsheltered homelessness is an increasingly prevalent phenomenon in major cities that is associated with adverse health and mortality outcomes. This creates a need for spatial estimates of population denominators for resource allocation and epidemiological studies. Gaps in the timeliness, coverage, and spatial specificity of official Point-in-Time Counts of unsheltered homelessness suggest a role for geospatial data from alternative sources to pr…

    PB can be advantageous for clients with higher levels of acuity, whereas SS could be more appropriate for clients who are more stable and independent. PB programs are seen to have practical and logistical advantages, but some providers prefer SS services. Clients and providers should be matched to PSH configurations that best match their needs and preferences, and providers should be aware that public health emergencies may impact PB and SS setti…

  • Latino-Hispanic Unsheltered Homelessness Before and After Covid-19

    Objectives. To identify sociodemographic shifts among unsheltered Latino people experiencing homelessness (PEH) between 2020–2022. Methods. We examined differences in characteristics reported in demographic surveys for Latino PEH older than 25 years from 2020 (n = 1215) and 2022 (n = 1395) in Los Angeles County, California, using weighted bivariate χ 2 tests. Results. From 2020 to 2022, there was a 25% increase in the number of unsheltered Latino…

  • Migration, Gender, and Families

    Open Access•Heidi West, Angubeen Khan et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2024•Referencias: 72

    Labor migration has a profound effect on families, but evidence documenting the impact of migration on women left behind is still lacking. Utilizing the Matlab Health and Socioeconomic Surveys, we examined the roles of migration and families in four domains of empowerment for women in Bangladesh. We found that women with international migrant spouses saw significant improvements in economic empowerment, mobility, and decision-making relative to w…

  • The relationship between political efficacy and self-rated health

    Open Access•Anna-Michelle Marie McSorley, Courtney S Thomas Tobin et al.•ARTICLE•SSM - Population Health•2023

    Latinx represent a growing population in the United States (US) that continue to experience a disproportionate burden of disease. However, health disparities vary across Latinx subgroups, including Mexican, Puerto Rican, and Cuban communities, particularly when assessing self-rated health. Given the nature of political exclusion in the US, these differences may be associated with underexplored political factors, or political determinants of healt…

    Objective: To assess the association between short maternal height and four types of mother–child nutritional status groupings within Mexican households. Design: We classified mother–child dyads into four groups: stunted child and a non-overweight/non-obese mother ( stunting-only ), non-stunted child and an overweight/obese mother ( overweight-only ), stunted child with an overweight/obese mother ( double-burden ) and households with neither chil…

  • No Place for Old Men”

    Open Access•Rebecca Galemba, R Kuhn•ARTICLE•International Migration Review•2021•Citada por: 1•Referencias: 29

    Day laborers are a highly vulnerable population, due to their contingent work arrangements, low socioeconomic position, and precarious immigration status. Earlier studies posited day labor as a temporary bridge for recent immigrants to achieve more stable employment, but recent studies have observed increasing duration of residence in the United States among foreign-born day laborers. This article draws on 170 qualitative interviews and a multi-v…

  • Challenges in Founding and Developing Medical School Student-Run Asylum Clinics

    Open Access•Fernando Riosmena, R Kuhn et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2017•Citada por: 55•Referencias: 63

    Despite being newcomers, immigrants often exhibit better health relative to native-born populations in industrialized societies. We extend prior efforts to identify whether self-selection and/or protection explain this advantage. We examine migrant height and smoking levels just prior to immigration to test for self-selection; and we analyze smoking behavior since immigration, controlling for self-selection, to assess protection. We study individ…

    Open Access•R Kuhn, Bethany G Everett et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2011•Citada por: 16•Referencias: 75

    Recent studies of migration and the left-behind have found that elders with migrant children actually experience better health outcomes than those with no migrant children, yet these studies raise many concerns about self-selection. Using three rounds of panel survey data from the Indonesian Family Life Survey, we employ the counterfactual framework developed by Rosenbaum and Rubin to examine the relationship between having a migrant child and th…

    Open Access•R Kuhn•ARTICLE•Population and Development Review•2012•Citada por: 17•Referencias: 80

    This essay traces the effects of human development on political change, focusing on the events of the Arab Spring.

These development gains penetrated most Arab states and subpopulations. The pathway from human development to political mobilization rests on three…

  • Consanguinity and Other Marriage Market Effects of a Wealth Shock in Bangladesh

    Open Access•Ahmed Mushfiq Mobarak, R Kuhn et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2013•Citada por: 4•Referencias: 38

    This paper uses a wealth shock from the construction of a flood protection embankment in rural Bangladesh coupled with data on the universe of all 52,000 marriage decisions between 1982 and 1996 to examine changes in marital prospects for households protected by the embankment relative to unprotected households living on the other side of the river. We use difference-in-difference specifications to document that brides from protected households c…

  • The Box Trumps the Net? Mediatising the 2012 Presidential Campaign

    R Kuhn•ARTICLE•Parliamentary Affairs•2013

    This article analyses and evaluates the role of the media in the 2012 presidential election. In particular, it focuses on campaign coverage by television and the internet from the perspective of both the main candidates' usage of the media (candidate communication) and the media's coverage of the campaign (political reportage and commentary). It argues that television, the dominant medium in the era of modern campaigning, was the main information…

  • France's Left Turn

    R Kuhn, R Murray et al.•ARTICLE•Parliamentary Affairs•2013•Citada por: 3•Referencias: 5

    In 2012 the Socialist Party (PS) presidential candidate, François Hollande, defeated the incumbent, Nicolas Sarkozy. The victory was convincing, though not overwhelming. Hollande thus became only the second Socialist president of the Fifth Republic after François Mitterrand. Hollande's success in the presidential contest was reinforced a few weeks later when the PS and immediate allies won an absolute majority of seats in the parliamentary electi…

  • Explaining the Immigrant Health Advantage

    Open Access•Fernando Riosmena, R Kuhn et al.•ARTICLE•Demography•2017•Citada por: 55•Referencias: 63

    Despite being newcomers, immigrants often exhibit better health relative to native-born populations in industrialized societies. We extend prior efforts to identify whether self-selection and/or protection explain this advantage. We examine migrant height and smoking levels just prior to immigration to test for self-selection; and we analyze smoking behavior since immigration, controlling for self-selection, to assess protection. We study individ…

  • Household structure vs. composition

    Open Access•Madhavan, Sangeetha Madhavan et al.•ARTICLE•Demographic Research•2017•Citada por: 9•Referencias: 56

    Despite the wealth of literature on household structure and children's educational outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa, the conceptual basis of these effects has not been well articulated. We have shown the value of unpacking household structure to better understand how gender norms and gendered resource allocations impact education

  • Challenges in Founding and Developing Medical School Student-Run Asylum Clinics

    Open Access•Fangning Gu, Emily Y Chu et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Immigrant and Minority…•2020

    In response to the rapidly rising number of asylum applications, student-run asylum clinics (SRACs) designed to provide pro bono forensic medical evaluations have emerged at medical schools across the United States. Distinct from traditional student-run clinics in the services they provide and in their operational models, SRACs face a unique set of challenges. This study aims to identify the common challenges in building SRACs and to collect insi…
