Is Acculturation the Culprit? Acculturative Discordance and Immigrants’ Later-Life Health
Immigrants have similar or higher disability levels than the U.S.-born in later life, which is puzzling given they have a health advantage upon arrival. A popular explanation is that acculturation harms health, but existing evidence is mixed. This study constructs multidimensional acculturation measures (linguistic, residential, marital, civic) using the American Community Survey (N = 958,211) and examines their associations with disability. I fi…
U.S.-Born Older Asians’ Diminishing Health Advantage Relative to Other Racial Groups, 2005–2022
Objectives Previous studies have shown that Asian Americans have lower disability and mortality rates than other racial/ethnic groups, indicating a more favorable health profile. This phenomenon is often attributed to the large proportion of Asians being foreign-born and positively selected. However, the health status of U.S.-born older Asians and its trend over time remain unclear. Methods We used data from the American Community Survey to descr…
Heterogeneity in Asian Americans’ mortality trends, 2000–2022
We discuss differential trends between Whites and Asians, as well as variation within Asian ethnic and educational groups, in the context of socioeconomic conditions, labor market dynamics, racialization in the United States, and stages of nutrition transition in countries of origin
Suppressed Potential
Latent Cumulative Disadvantage
One of the most salient findings in research on immigration has been that immigrants experience substantial economic mobility as they accumulate more years in the host-society labor force and eventually approach earnings parity with their native-born counterparts. However, we do not know whether this progress is sustained in retirement. In this paper, I develop a framework of Latent Cumulative (Dis)advantage and hypothesize that even as immigrant…
U.S. Immigrants Have Highly Heterogeneous Perceptions of How Selected They Are on Health
Measuring immigrant health selection is crucial for understanding population health in immigrant-receiving countries. Recently, studies have measured health selection using respondents’ perceptions of their health in comparison with those in their home countries. Yet we do not know how well this measure captures health selection. Using the New Immigrant Survey, the authors visualize respondents’ self-reported levels of health selection stratified…
Immigrant status and the social returns to academic achievement in adolescence
Social scientists have long debated whether high-achieving students of color are socially sanctioned. This discussion has rarely focused on immigrant students, who are exceptionally diverse in their educational performance and face challenges in social integration at school. This article assesses whether the effect of academic achievement on U.S. adolescents' popularity among peers varies by immigrant status. Further, we investigate whether the s…
All Wealth Is Not Created Equal

Conwell a, Leafia Zi Ye b, All Wealth Is Not Created Equal: Race, Parental Net Worth, and Children’s Achievement, RSF: The Russell Sage Foundation Journal of the Social Sciences, Vol. 7, No. 3, Wealth Inequality and Child Development: Implications for Policy and Practice (August 2021), pp. 101-121
Mobility, Stagnation, or Attrition? Diverse Earning Trajectories in a Cohort of Foreign-born Men
Researchers and policymakers frequently debate about the integration of immigrants into the US economy. These debates are often based on limited data that do not capture the diversity of immigrants who arrived in the later twentieth century. Related research has also struggled to incorporate the experience of short-term immigrants or immigrants who move in and out of the labor force. Using records from the Social Security Administration, we track…
Uncovering themes in personalized learning
Using a natural language processing tool, this study examined participant discourse in personalized learning schools to better understand what personalized learning looks like in practice. Term frequency-inverse document frequency (tf-idf) was used to identify the significant words and potential emergent themes for 134 interview transcripts. This tool provided a way to swiftly explore the structure of the data, revealing distinctions in the vocab…
