Gender Differences in the Occupational Status of Undocumented Immigrants in the United States: Experience before and after Legalization
This article examines the incorporation of a national sample of undocumented immigrants both before and after they applied to legalize their status under the provisions of the Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 (IRCA). Data from the 1989 and 1992 Legalized Population Surveys (LPS-1 and LPS-2) are used. These surveys provide labor force and occupational data for three critical reference periods: as newly arrived undocumented immigrants, as…

Occupational Status and Mobility among Undocumented Immigrants by Gender
This article addresses two issues concerning about the integration and mobility of undocumented immigrants in the United States: 1) whether undocumented men and women improve their earnings and occupational status over time and 2) the extent of variation in occupational status and mobility by gender and region. Data from the 1989 Legalized Population Survey indicate that both undocumented men and women, on average, improved their earnings and occ…

Fertility and Child Care Arrangements as Mechanisms of Status Articulation
Examines the way in which the employment preferences and the child care arrangements of mothers and young children are related to their fertility expectations. The findings indicate that the future fertility expectations of a large sample of mothers of young children who are not in the labor force were influenced by whether they wanted to be in the labor force given adequate child care and by whether they currently used regular child care arrange…

Occupational status scores: Changes introduced by the inclusion of women
This paper examines the impact of women’s labor force participation on occupational scores by comparing occupational status scores based on the characteristics of the 1970 male labor force with a set of occupational status scores based on the characteristics of the total 1970 labor force. Although the two sets of scores are highly correlated, important differences are found in the scores for specific occupations as well as for major occupational …

Mobility and the Fertility of Wives in an Urban Neighborhood: A Research Note
This paper examines the relationship between mobility and fertility among women in a low income urban neighborhood. It compares recent movers with long-term residents in one neighborhood with a view toward clarifying the relationship between fertility and intra-urban migration or mobility. Mobility and migration are most often studied on the basis of census data tabulated for the nation as a whole and for the various political subdivisions. Conse…

Labor Force Participation and Socioeconomic Status
This study examined the relationship between labor force participation by more than one family member and the socioeconomic status of the family, as measured by the Census SES score. The data were derived from a special tabulation of the 1960 Census five percent sample tape. In general, labor force participation by more than one family member was associated with higher SES scores in both white and Negro families. Multiple wage earners in white fa…

Los datos indican que los SES (status socio-economico) niveles para todos los grupos étnieos y para la población nativa son mas altos en las areas metropolitanas que en las areas no metropolitanas. La sola exepción parece ser la del 16 por ciento de todos los blancos nativos hijos de blancos nativos y la del 12 por ciento de todos los no blancos en pequeños ciudades o pueblos, localizadas fuera de las SMSA's (areas metropolitanas standards) pero …

Changes in the Relative Status Level of Workers in the United States, 1950-60
Analysis of socioeconomic scores of persons classified by detailed occupation in 1950 and 1960 shows general stability of occupational status over the decade but significantly-changing status for a minority of occupations. The latter are examined in terms of changing numbers of occupants and changing median age, as well as relative increases or decreases in average education and income of occupants. Slight declines in scores for persons in a high…
