    Open AccessRandall Akee, Maggie R JonesARTICLEInternational Migration Review2025Referencias: 15

    Using a novel panel dataset of recent immigrants to the United States, we identify return migration rates and earnings trajectories for two immigrant groups: those with foreign graduate degrees and those who immigrate and acquire a U.S. graduate degree. We focus on immigrants (of both genders) to the United States who arrive in the same entry cohort and from the same country of birth over the period 2005–2015. In linked demographic and administra…

  • Race and Economic Opportunity in the United States

    Open AccessRaj Chetty, Nathaniel Hendren et al.ARTICLEThe Quarterly Journal of Economics2019

    We study the sources of racial disparities in income using anonymized longitudinal data covering nearly the entire U.S. population from 1989 to 2015. We document three results. First, black Americans and American Indians have much lower rates of upward mobility and higher rates of downward mobility than whites, leading to persistent disparities across generations. Conditional on parent income, the black-white income gap is driven by differences i…

Our data encompass the universe of income tax filers in the United States for the period 2000–2014, matched with individual-level race and ethnicity information from multiple censuses and American Community Survey data. We document both income inequality and mobility trends over the period. We find significant stratification i…

  • Who Is the Residential Parent? Understanding Discrepancies in Unmarried Parents' Reports

    Open AccessMaureen R Waller, Maggie R JonesARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family2014Citada por: 8Referencias: 38

    Research examining parental reports of children's living arrangements has often relied on information about legally ordered custody agreements following divorce. This analysis used data from matched pairs of parents (N = 1,156) in the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study who live apart to compare mother and father reports of their child's residence 5 years after a nonmarital birth. The authors found that over one third of unmarried parents …
