Lifecourse socioeconomic status and cardiovascular illness in Latin America
Although socioeconomic status has been positively linked to health, little is known how socioeconomic disadvantage experienced in both childhood and adulthood influences cardiovascular illness in low- and middle-income countries. With particular emphasis on the elderly, this research uses Latin American data to test whether adult socioeconomic disadvantage, net of childhood socioeconomic disadvantage, is associated with being diagnosed with hyper…
Remittance Activity among Brazilians in the US and Canada
This comparative study uses data collected in 1990 and 1991 to examine the remittance behavior of Brazilians who had recently arrived in Canada and the United States. These data permit an examination of remittance activity among immigrants relatively soon after their arrival in a pair of host destinations. Prior to contrasting the remittance activity of these newly arrived immigrants, we first document the high degree of similarity between the tw…
Adolescents’ Educational Outcomes: Racial and Ethnic Variations in Peer Network Importance
English Acquisition and Japanese Language Maintenance Among Japanese‐American Youth
Despite the growing number of Japanese speaking immigrants in the United States and the pronounced linguistic dissimilarity between Japanese and English, few studies have examined English proficiency levels or Japanese language maintenance. We use 2000 data from the 5 per cent IPUMS file to examine English proficiency and language maintenance among first‐, second‐, and third‐or higher‐ generation Japanese immigrant youth in the United States. Bef…
Rural, Suburban and Urban Differences in the Self-Diagnosis of Coronary Heart Disease in the United States
This study explores rural, suburban and urban differences in coronary heart disease (CHD) using the 2005 Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance Survey conducted in the United States. Although areal context is not often considered in morbidity studies, this study evaluates the importance of place of residence given that areas offer differential access to health infrastructures and different contextual factors that could affect health. Also examined is …
Racial Differences in the Relationship Between Infant Mortality and Socioeconomic Status
This study presents an ecological analysis of the relationship between infant mortality and economic status by race in metropolitan Ohio, using census data on mother’s residence and economic status determined by the percentage of low-income families living in each area. The analysis updates previous studies as white–non-white comparisons for total infant mortality are examined for the US censuses of 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990 and 2000; and more detai…

The relationship between socioeconomic status and infant mortality in metropolitan Ohio, 1999-2001
Empirical evidence has consistently documented the direct relationship between infant mortality and socioeconomic inequality in the United States and numerous other countries. While the majority of these studies reveal an inverse relationship between socioeconomic level and infant mortality, not even this finding is free from disagreement. Furthermore, the specific nature and magnitude of this relationship has varied over time. This study will ex…
Unemployment Transitions among Brazilians in the United States and Canada
This study uses the job search framework to examine the unemployment experiences of Brazilian immigrants in the North American labour force. Primary data gathered in Canada and the United States is used in these analyses. The model generally used to monitor transitions among the native‐born was modified to make it more appropriate to the immigrant experience. To do this a composite model was constructed that incorporates variables unique to the i…
Brazilian Immigration to Ontario
Immigration to Canada from non‐traditional donor nations has increased in recent years and is likely to continue to increase in the long‐term. This article examines one flow of “new” immigrants: from Brazil to Toronto, Ontario. Their adaptation experiences are analysed from primary data collected from 205 Brazilians interviewed during 1991. A large proportion of the immigrants who arrived after 1987, the year a visa requirement was initiated for …
Infectious disease mortality among adults by race and socioeconomic status: Metropolitan Ohio, 1989-1991
The data presented here are part of an on-going longitudinal study of the relationship between socioeconomic status and mortality in the major metropolitan centers of Ohio. Using a Standardized Mortality Ratio, we find that mortality in the seven-city urban aggregate exceeds that of the rest of the state by 39 per cent for the nonwhite population and only 1 per cent for the white population. Further, for the nonwhite population, living in a high …
The Labor Process Among Temporary Workers in the São Paulo Sugar Industry
The role of circular labor migration in the São Paulo sugar industry's labor process is documented using origin and destination level data. Examination of origin-level data from the Jequitinhonha Valley of Minas Gerais and a review of the historical development of the São Paulo sugar industry demonstrate the special conditions that contribute to this seasonal and highly repetitive flow of manpower. These data also help explain the prevalence of p…

Infant Mortality and Economic Status in Metropolitan Ohio, Total and Cause-Specific: 1979–81 And 1989–91
This paper presents the results of an ecological analysis of the relationship between infant mortality and economic status in a metropolitan aggregate comprised of six of the larger cities in Ohio covering the years 1979-81 and 1989-91.... Results of the analysis revealed, first of all, that there continues to be a clear and pronounced inverse association between the aggregate economic status of an area and the probability that a newborn infant w…

This article begins with a discussion of the origins of this recent immigrant group and its rapid expansion. Next, it focuses on the labor forc…

Sudden infant death syndrome and the age-cause proxy relationship in infancy
Evidence from a longitudinal study of the relationship between socioeconomic status and infant mortality in metropolitan Ohio is presented in an effort to throw additional light on the continuing debate over the validity of the age-cause proxy relationship in infancy. The results indicate that while there is a fairly strong and consistent association between neonatal mortality and endogenous causes of death that is little affected by the classifi…
Brazilian frontier settlement: The case of Rondônia
Causes and Consequences of Migration in the Jequitinhonha Valley of Minas Gerais
This study documents the recent development and expansion of temporary inter-regional labor migration in central-west Brazil. Several explanations for the expansion of this movement are investigated, including the financial crises that have affected Brazil's recent social and economic development. Temporary and permanent movement typologies are also examined in an attempt to discern why this region is now characterized by temporary rather than pe…
