  • The Effects of Career Origins on Subsequent Socioeconomic Attainments

    Open AccessRonald D''Amico, Ronald Dʼamico et al.ARTICLEWork and Occupations1985References: 20

    The fundamental contention of this article is that the institutional environment encompassing a worker's career origins has important and long-lasting effects on subsequent career developments. Empirically, we demonstrate that industry of first job after school is a significant and strong predictor of earnings and occupational SEI for workers late in their careers. This finding holds despite controls for a number of relevant human capital and oth…

  • Industrial Feudalism Reconsidered: The Effects of Unionization on Labor Mobility

    Open AccessRonald D''Amico, Ronald Dʼamico et al.ARTICLEWork and Occupations1984Cited by: 1References: 16

    In recent years, sociologists have increasingly investigated the ways in which institutional or organizational features of the labor market constrain workers' mobility patterns throughout the economy. Building on this work, this article analyzes union effects on patterns of job mobility. It finds that the union effects vary by type of union and by type of job change, with industrial unions promoting the incidence of intrafirm occupation changes a…

  • Explaining the Effects of Capital Sector for Income Determination

    Open AccessRonald D''Amico, Ronald Dʼamico et al.ARTICLEWork and Occupations1982Cited by: 3References: 22

    This article endeavors to explicate some of the mechanisms whereby the dual sector distinction is relevant for earnings determination. We estimate both direct and indirect sectoral effects, disaggregate the dependent variable into hourly wage and annual hours worked components and explore the interplay between sector and occupational distributions. The final section attempts to evaluate dualism in a somewhat broader sense. In particular, we explo…

  • Collinearity, Ridge Regression, and Investigator Judgment

    Open AccessJames Fennessey, Ronald D''Amico et al.ARTICLESociological Methods & Research1980Cited by: 5References: 27

    Several recent articles have suggested that ridge regression may provide an 'optimal' procedure for dealing with the problems created by highly collinear regressors in linear models. In this article, we review the consequences of collinearity among the regressors in a well-specified structural equation model and the several variants of ridge regression that may be considered as possible responses to such collinearity. Based on thts review and on …
