Collaborative assessments in Mandarin conversation
The co-production of a sentence is a phenomenon that is widely observed in talk-in-interaction across languages. However, with a few notable exceptions, there is still much room for the investigation of how the co-production of sentences is put to the service of specific actions and activities in different language communities. This paper, using 10 hours of video-recorded data, examines the co-production of assessments (“collaborative assessments…
The association between food insecurity and mental health during the Covid-19 pandemic
Food insecurity caused by the pandemic was associated with increased risk of mental illness. The relative risk of mental illness from being food insecure is almost three-fold that of losing a job during the pandemic. Public health measures should focus on getting direct subsidies of food purchases to poor families, especially families with children. They should also reduce the stigma and shame that is associated with accepting charitable foods
Predicted Probabilities' Relationship to Inclusion Probabilities
It has been shown that under a general multiplicative intercept model for risk, case-control (retrospective) data can be analyzed by maximum likelihood as if they had arisen prospectively, up to an unknown multiplicative constant, which depends on the relative sampling fraction. 1 With suitable auxiliary information, retrospective data can also be used to estimate response probabilities. 2 In other words, predictive probabilities obtained without…
Geographic Mobility of the Foreign-Born Chinese in Large Metropolises, 1985–1990
The spatial assimilation and ethnic resources models, two major theoretical explanations of the adaptation of immigrants, provide different views on the mechanism of spatial mobility of immigrants. We used the 1990 census 5 percent Public Use Microdata Sample (PUMS) to analyze the migration of foreign-born Chinese in three large metropolises — New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. We tested the two explanations in this study and argue that ou…

Japan's Growing Economic Activities and the Attainment Patterns of Foreign- Born Japanese Workers in the United States, 1979 to 1989
Di Fang, Japan's Growing Economic Activities and the Attainment Patterns of Foreign- Born Japanese Workers in the United States, 1979 to 1989, The International Migration Review, Vol. 30, No. 2 (Summer, 1996), pp. 511-534
Japans Growing Economic Activities and the Attainment Patterns of Foreign-Born Japanese Workers in the United States, 1979 to 1989
This study examines the impact of the economic activities of Japan in the United States on the socioeconomic attainments of foreign-born Japanese male workers in 1979 and 1989. It demonstrates that working in wholesale trade, finance and manufacturing industries, three major sectors of Japanese investment in America, provided foreign-born male Japanese workers with the highest likelihood of assuming managerial positions. Moreover, the managerial …
The secular trend in the growth of southern Chinese girls in Hong Kong
The present investigation on the secular trend in the growth of stature, sittig height, and lower limb length of southern Chinese girls in Hong Kong was measured in 1961?63 and in 1977?79 on two different groups of girls, aged 9?20 years. The data suggests that the secular in crease in standing height is probably a secular change to an earlier pubertal spurt, and it is the result of a secular gain in both sitting height and lower limb length. How…
