The Correlates and Gender Differences of Sexual Behavior of Single Young Adults in Thailand
Using a nationally-representative sample of single young adults from the National Sexual Behavior Study of Thailand (N=1,852), we explore individual-, family-, peer-, and community-level factors related to premarital sex. Over 50% of single young males and about 20% of single young females aged 18-24 in Thailand report having engaged in sexual activity the past 12 months. Better education and frequent consumption of alcohol increases the likeliho…
Moderate Alcohol Consumption and the Risk of Mortality
There has been a growing consensus that moderate consumption of alcohol is associated with a lower risk of mortality and that this association is probably causal. However, a recent review article has raised a serious challenge to this consensus. In short, it determined that most prior research in this area committed serious misclassification errors; furthermore, among those studies that were free of these misclassification errors, no support for …
Relationship Status, Health, and Health Behavior
A large amount of literature on relationship status, health, and health behavior indicates that marriage conveys health benefits. This literature, however, devotes relatively little attention to two theoretically interesting groups: unmarried cohabiters and married people who do not live with their spouse ('commuters'). The author hypothesizes that the health and health behaviors of these two groups will be intermediate between those of married p…

Gender Differences in the Psychological Well-Being of Married Men and Women
Using a wide variety of measures of psychological well-being obtained from a representative sample of married men and women in Bangkok, Thailand, we examine gender differences in psychological well-being. We find that, in Bangkok, as in the United States, married men generally enjoy a higher level of psychological well-being than do married women. We find no support for role strain theory, but we do find support for role enhancement theory. We fi…
We Can't Teach What We Don't Know
We Can't Teach What We Don't Know: White Teachers, Multiracial Schools, by Gary R. Howard. New York: Teachers College Press, 1999, 160 pp. $20.95, paper. We Can't Teach What We Don't Know: White Teachers, Multiracial Schools is a powerful revelation of one man's journey from mainstream White values to a multicultural perspective. Gary R. Howard's voyage began in the 1960's in the inner city of New Haven, Connecticut, where he worked as a voluntee…

Gender and Health
In Thailand, like the U.S., women's higher rates of illness and health service use imply that they are "sicker." But, as in the U.S., females live longer than males. Based on a large representative sample of Bangkokians, we find that married women report more sickness, are more likely to utilize health services and, according to self-reports, have poorer health. Western literature suggests five prominent explanations for gender differences in hea…
Household Crowding and Family Relations in Bangkok
Cities in developing countries are growing ever larger and more dense, fostering congested household environments. Using data from Bangkok, this paper examines the effect of household crowding on multiple measures of family relations, looking at the possible ''social costs.'' The data show that objective household crowding does increase marital instability and arguments, and parent-child tensions. Subjective household crowding affects not only th…
Household crowding and reproductive behavior
Ethological studies suggest that animal populations that live in crowded conditions display a number of behaviors that tend to limit the size of the population, such as aberrant forms of sexual behavior, small litter sizes, a higher incidence of spontaneous abortion, ineffectual maternal care, and even cannibalism of their young. Studies of household crowding in North America cities have produced only modest and selective evidence that crowding h…

Urban Ties of Rural Thais
Urban Ties of Rural Thais
Sponsorship plays an important role in influencing migration decisions and shaping migration streams. Therefore, it is important to document the nature and extent of interpersonal linkages between villagers and urban dwellers. This article presents such an analysis for Thailand, in a context dominated by circular mobility. Using data from Northeast Thailand, it examines the prevalence of urban social contacts, selectivities involved in such linka…

Rural-urban mobility in Thailand
An individual behavioral model of the decision-making process for rural-urban mobility is applied to longitudinal data from an area of Northeast Thailand where circular rural-urban movement dominates. The individual-level variables included in the model are: recent mobility history, urban social contacts, information about urban areas, evaluations of various locations, migration plans, and actual movements in the period subsequent to an initial i…

Standardized Solutions Using Lisrel on Multiple Populations
This article argues that the procedure used to calculate standardized coefficients in LISREL 6.1 is inappropriate. An alternative approach is proposed. The two approaches are compared empirically
Design and Evaluation of A Migration Experiment in Thailand
In many less developed countries, planners are concerned about the concentration of population in one or two major cities. The authors implemented a small-scale experimental program in Northeast Thailand designed to alter patterns of outinigration from a rural area, specifically to redirect migration to urban centers within the same region rather than toward Bangkok. Using data from a baseline survey and a follow-up survey 12 months later, strong…

Urban Ties of Rural Thais
Migrant-Native Socioeconomic Differentials in Thailand
Recent research has suggested that the position of many urban migrants compares favorably with that of urban natives. This generalization is refined by referring to three key distinctions: migrants from rural versus urban origins, recent versus more experienced cityward migrants, and type of urban destination. In Thailand in the early 1970s, migrants to smaller urban centers, especially the more experienced migrants, are economically more success…
