Generational Differences and Demand Preferences for Elder Care Services
The evolving landscape of societal values, living habits, cognitive frameworks, and behavioral patterns across different generations shapes preferences for elder care services. This study explores generational diversities in elder care preferences among Chinese older adults. By utilizing Latent Class Analysis, four distinct types of elder care service demands were identified: Low Demand, Daily Convenience Service Demand, Social and Mental Health …
The Grandparent–Grandchild Relationship and Grandchildren's Developmental Outcomes
The grandparent–grandchild relationship has been found to influence grandchildren's development in various domains. However, there is a lack of a systematic review with quantitative synthesis about how relationships with grandparents were related to grandchildren's development. We conducted a systematic review with meta‐analysis for existing studies on the association between grandparent–grandchild relationship strength and grandchildren's psycho…
Neighborhood Transitions and Local Racial/Ethnic Diversity, 1980 to 2020
Since the 1980s, several studies have documented rising racial/ethnic diversity in neighborhoods in U.S. metropolitan areas, and others have reported a parallel decline in predominantly white neighborhoods and a rising number of multiethnic “global” neighborhoods. The authors examine three questions about these trends. First, do these trends represent a change in the pattern of segregation that has historically divided urban areas, or are they ma…
Continuity and Change in Neighborhood Racial/Ethnic Transitions
Since the 1980s, several studies have reported a decline in all-White neighborhoods and a rising number of racially mixed neighborhoods, including what have been called multiethnic “global” neighborhoods. Previous research has shown that these changes between 1980 and 2010 partly reflected the rapidly rising shares of Hispanics and Asians in urban areas. However, they also showed that there had been a substantial change in the pattern of settleme…
Using Public Data to Improve Population Estimates Within Consistent Boundaries
Studies of neighborhood change rely on interpolated data to cope with inconsistent boundaries of geographic units over time. The standard approach introduces error by assuming, counterfactually, that all kinds of people are distributed in the same manner within tracts as the whole population. This study evaluates estimates of 2000 neighborhood characteristics using 2010 boundaries in the Longitudinal Tract Data Base (LTDB) that uses the standard …

Income Segregation
Reports of rising income segregation in the United States have been brought into question by the observation that post-2000 estimates are upwardly biased because of a reduction in the sample sizes on which they are based. Recent studies have offered estimates of this sample-count bias using public data. We show here that there are two substantial sources of systematic bias in estimating segregation levels: bias associated with sample size and bia…
Blackcoated Worker
Blackcoated worker refers to workers who engage in non‐manual work, in which people exercise their brain instead of brawn . These workers form an important occupational group that comprises different levels of professionals, clerks, managerial, and administrative staff in a wide variety of office settings spread across many sectors of society, such as civil service, commercial, and industrial. Also known as “white‐collar proletariat,” “pencil pus…
Colorism
Colorism refers to the prejudicial treatment of people based on their skin color (cutaneo‐chroma). Other phenotypic characteristics, such as eye color and hair texture, may also serve as the basis of similar kinds of prejudicial treatment. However, skin color is by far the most important and frequently used criterion. Notwithstanding exceptions, colorism predominantly privileges lighter skin tone over darker. It manifests its effects in many area…
Evaluation of the anti-inflammatory effects of volatile oils from processed products of Angelica sinensis radix by GC–MS-based metabolomics
Global Neighborhoods
Neighborhoods where blacks and whites live in integrated settings alongside Hispanics and Asians represent a new phenomenon in the United States. These “global neighborhoods” have previously been identified in the nation’s most diverse metropolitan centers. This study examines the full range of metropolitan areas to ask whether similar processes are occurring in other parts of the country. Is there evidence of stable racial integration in places …
Immigrant Enclaves and Ethnic Communities in New York and Los Angeles
The predominant post-1965 immigrant groups have established distinctive settlement areas in many American cities and suburbs. These areas are generally understood in terms of an "immigrant enclave" model in which ethnic neighborhoods in central cities serve relatively impoverished new arrivals as a potential base for eventual spatial assimilation with the white majority. This model, and the "ethnic community " model, are evaluated here. In the et…
Immigrant Groups in the Suburbs
For a number of contemporary immigrant groups, suburbanization is occurring at high levels, and either increased or remained stable during the 1980s, a decade of high immigration. We investigate whether these settlement patterns are consistent with spatial-assimilation theory. Using Public Use Microdata from the 1980 and 1990 U.S. censuses, we examine the link between suburban residence and life-cycle, socioeconomic, and assimilation characterist…
