Covid-19-Related Discrimination and Mental Distress: Mediating Role of Loneliness, Resilience, and Financial Worries
This study examines the relationship between COVID-19-related discrimination and mental distress in the later stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also explores whether this relationship can be accounted for by loneliness, resilience, and financial worries. A random sample of 302 respondents from four Upstate South Carolina counties completed surveys between March and August 2022. Results from path analysis indicate a strong positive association b…
Proximity to Covid-19 vaccination sites and vaccine uptake: The role of gender and vaccine distrust

Class and ambition in the status attainment process: A Spanish replication
There are two principal theoretical schools that seek to explain status outcomes in early adulthood: those focusing on intergenerational transmission of class privilege and those emphasizing individual characteristics, particularly ambition. The first may be called the structuralist school and the second the psycho-social school, following the Wisconsin Model of Status Attainment. A second structuralist perspective, Segmented Assimilation, highli…
General trends and exceptions in the incorporation of immigrant youths to host societies

Divided Fates: The State, Race, and Korean Immigrants' Adaptation in Japan and the United States
Transnational Leisure Experience of Second-Generation Immigrants: The Case of Chinese-Americans
Technological advancements have enabled contemporary immigrants to live in two worlds and maintain virtual and physical contact with their country of origin through leisure and tourism. While the transnational practices of first-generation immigrants have been well established, the extent of transnational leisure in the native-born second generation has not been explored. The purpose of this study is to examine the transnational practices of seco…

Dreaming in Spain: Parental Determinants of Immigrant Children's Ambition
We examine determinants of educational and occupational aspirations and expectations among children of immigrants in Spain on the basis of a unique data set that includes statistically representative data for foreign-origin secondary students in Madrid and Barcelona plus a sample of one-fourth of their parents. Independently collected data for both generations allow us to establish effects of parental characteristics on children's orientations wi…
Dreams Fulfilled, Dreams Shattered: Determinants of Segmented Assimilation in the Second Generation
We summarize prior theories on the adaptation process of the contemporary immigrant second generation as a prelude to presenting additive and interactive models showing the impact of family variables, school contexts and academic outcomes on the process. For this purpose, we regress indicators of educational and occupational achievement in early adulthood on predictors measured three and six years earlier. The Children of Immigrants Longitudinal …
On the Dangers of Rosy Lenses: Reply to Alba, Kasinitz and Waters
On the Dangers of Rosy Lenses:Reply to Alba, Kasinitz and Waters William Haller, Alejandro Portes, and Scott M. Lynch We commend the measured tone and clearly stated arguments in Alba, Kasinitz and Waters' commentary on our article. It is particularly welcome because, in combination with our own conclusions, it lays out before the relevant audiences the substance of the debate in this field. Based on the commentary's opening statement, it would a…
Moving Ahead in Madrid: Aspirations and Expectations in the Spanish Second Generation
This paper examines determinants of aspirations and expectations among children of immigrants based on a statistically representative sample of 3,375 second generation youths interviewed in 101 public and private secondary schools in metropolitan Madrid. We review the past literature on status attainment in general and aspirations and expectations, in particular, and draw from it a set of six hypotheses to guide the analysis. Most theoretical sta…
The cosmopolitan-local continuum in cross-national perspective
This article examines whether the cosmopolitan-local continuum is present among advanced industrialized world regions. Strictly comparable factor analyses show that its nation-based and place-based variants are observable across world regions. Results indicate that, from 1995 to 2003 among the regions analyzed, place-based localism is declining everywhere. This finding suggests that globalization's effects on personal lives are consequential in t…
Fit to Miss, but Matched to Hatch: Success Factors among the Second Generation's Disadvantaged in South Florida
This article examines the elements of successful outcomes among disadvantaged members of the South Florida immigrant communities and assesses the utility of rational choice theory and the Wisconsin model. The findings are derived from ethnographic interviews and analysis of two of the most underprivileged South Florida districts, Little Haiti and Hialeah. The article builds upon the elements of success as identified in the lead article of this vo…

The transnational dimensions of identity formation: Adult children of immigrants in Miami
This article draws on the insights of research on transnational migration to reconsider the process of identity formation among children of immigrants and the patterns of acculturation associated with different trajectories of segmented assimilation. Extending the research on segmented assimilation and identity formation among children of immigrants in early adulthood, the article uses the third wave of the Miami CILS sample to examine the relati…
Segmented assimilation on the ground: The new second generation in early adulthood
We review the literature on segmented assimilation and alternative theoretical models on the adaptation of the second generation ; summarize the theoretical framework developed in the course of the Children of Immigrants Longitudinal Study [CILS]; and present evidence from its third survey in South Florida bearing on alternative hypotheses. We find that the majority of second-generation youths are moving ahead educationally and occupationally, bu…
Changes in the Structure of Status Systems: Employment Shifts in the Wake of Deindustrialization
Assimilation and Transnationalism: Determinants of Transnational Political Action among Contemporary Migrants
This article presents evidence of the scale, relative intensity, and social determinants of immigrants’ transnational political engagement. It demonstrates that a stable and significant transnational field of political action connecting immigrants with their polities of origin does indeed exist. The results help temper celebratory images of the extent and effects of transnational engagement provided by some scholars. The article shows that migran…
Transnational Entrepreneurs: An Alternative Form of Immigrant Economic Adaptation
The recent literature on immigrant transnationalism points to an alternative form of economic adaptation of foreign minorities in advanced societies that is based on the mobilization of their cross-country social networks. Case studies have noted the phenomenon's potential significance for immigrant integration into receiving countries and for the economic development in countries of origin. Despite their suggestive character, these studies consi…

The Word of God in the New Model Army
At the close of 1644 the Long Parliament and the Westminster Assembly found themselves in a difficult position. The preachers had declared that, if they all did the will of the Lord in the church, He would surely bless the efforts of their army in the war against the King. But the church was still unreformed and the King undefeated. They could have peace at the risk of allowing Charles to regain control of the church. They could go on with the wa…

The Word of God in the Westminster Assembly
In December 1641 the Puritan preachers petitioned Parliament to establish regular monthly fast days with prayer and preaching and to call a synod of divines in order to reconstitute the Church. Parliament approved the first proposal at once but delayed adopting the second until a year and a half later. By that time war had begun with the King but, contrary to the assurances put forth by the preachers, the Lord had so far withheld victory from his…

Milton and the Protestant Ethic
Mr. Frank's engaging argument is convincing up to a point. Milton was indeed a protestant of the protestants and in true protestant fashion kept pressing on in his thinking to ever more extreme conclusions which seemed to him of the very essence of rationality. Such a course pointed in one direction logically enough to the reduction of the many divagations of protestant doctrine to a religion of common sense free of dilemmas and miracles. But suc…
