Triple Jeopardy: Complexities of Racism, Sexism, and Ageism on the Experiences of Mental Health Stigma Among Young Canadian Black Women of Caribbean Descent
This article explores how the intersection of race, gender, and age intertextually complicate and nuance the experience of mental health stigma among young Black women of Caribbean descent living in Canada. The Mental Health Commission of Canada acknowledged that mental health stigma continues to affect the help-seeking behavior of young adults. Some youth-serving agencies and many advocates within Black communities have become increasingly vocal…

Who's Registered and Who's Not: Targeting Voter Registration in Chicago
Racial minorities, the poor, the less educated and the young are the groups least likely to be registered and most likely to be under‐represented in voting. The potential payoff from participation in local elections is great: voting is their only real avenue of influence and municipal office holders are more directly responsive to voters than are federal officials. The success enjoyed by blacks in Chicago during the 1980s demonstrates what can be…

Pluralistic Ignorance and the Spiral of Silence: A Formal Analysis
This article is a formal analysis of the theory of the spiral of silence and the theory of pluralistic ignorance. The article develops a set of five hypotheses about the relationships among the variables in each theory of how individuals perceive public opinion. The hypotheses are tested and the points of success and failure for each theory are noted. Finally, a general argument is made linking the spiral of silence and theories of the perception…
Crime and Punishment--Changing Attitudes in America
Procedures for Evaluating Trends in Public Opinion
This article expresses a variety of theories of public opinion change in terms of a formal model for analyzing public opinion data. Statistical criteria are proposed whereby models of varying complexity can be accepted or rejected. The observation is made that certain substantive theories of change are more parsimonious than others in terms of their statistical predictions. The model for analyzing change presented here is based on the premise tha…
Housing, Neighborhoods, and Race Relations: Recent Survey Evidence
This essay looks at the various uses which have been made of public opinion data in explaining and predicting patterns of racial residential segregation. Public opinion is central to understanding the process of housing discrimination because housing market behavior is difficult to monitor and police in any official or bureaucratic fashion. Current poll results show that racial attitudes or preferences for segregated neighborhoods by whites (or b…
Salience of Crime and Support for Harsher Criminal Sanctions
This paper examines the relation between the salience of crime and support for harsher legal sanctions (capital punishment, harsher courts) in American public opinion. Many of the “simple theories” of effect are not supported. People who are more afraid or who have been victimized do not necessarily favor harsher sanctions. At the ecological level, in environments which are characterized by higher rates of crime and greater fear of crime, respond…

The Accuracy of Respondent-Coded Occupation
This study reports results from a methodological experiment conducted in a national survey to test the accuracy of respondent-coded occupation. For most uses, we conclude that such measures are sufficiently precise. There are, however, some systematic sources of error which the investigator should be aware of
A Social Indicator of Access to Medical Care
This study introduces a social indicator of access to medical care-the symptoms-response ratiothat reflects the difference between the number of visits in response to symptoms that actually occur and the number that a panel of physicians indicate is appropriatefor these same symptoms. Findings on the indexfor a national sample of the United States population affirm differentials in access that are generally thought to exist in terms of other acce…
