Attributes of growing and shrinking places within socioeconomic clusters in the United States
Testing Hypotheses When You Have More Than a Few
A common issue faced by spatial analysts is that of multiple testing. When hypotheses are tested at multiple points in time or space, care must often be taken to avoid results containing too many false positives. There are many ways to address this outcome, and these are reviewed in this article. We begin with a review of some of the basic, longstanding approaches to multiple testing. This is followed by a summary of the more recent objective of …
The Effects of Weight Choices on the Power of the Getis–Ord Statistic
When local spatial clustering exists, local statistics are most likely to be significant when their associated weights match the spatial form and extent of the actual clustering. This paper focuses upon the cost of misspecifying the weights of the Getis–Ord statistic. In particular, it is more difficult to reject false null hypotheses when the weights are poorly chosen. I also examine the likelihood of finding spatial clusters when a range of spa…
The average effectiveness of local migration exchanges
We develop a measure of the average effectiveness of migration exchanges with destinations, for local origins. We also decompose this new measure into components summarising the average effectiveness of a region's exchanges with places for which it has net out‐migration, and places for which it has net in‐migration. This makes it possible to define regions that are effective exchangers, balanced exchangers, effective gainers, or effective losers,…
Not all shrinking places are similar
Scan Statistics Adjusted for Global Spatial Autocorrelation
Failure to account for global spatial autocorrelation when using scan statistics to find clusters generated by local processes will result in P ‐values that are too low, and consequently, spurious findings of statistical significance are not uncommon. The presence of global spatial autocorrelation also decreases the ability to reject false null hypotheses and it is therefore more difficult to find local clusters when they exist. By estimating the…
The Impacts of the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (Maup) on Omission Error
An omission error occurs when independent variables are missing from a regression model. When individual observations are not available, the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) appears with spatially aggregated data sets. Both omission error and the MAUP can occur simultaneously in regression analyses. In particular, the MAUP causes the bias due to an omission error to be less predictable for linear regression models, and it distorts bias differ…

The Effects of Months, Holidays, and the Birthdays of Presidents on Choice of Baby Names
The propensity to name babies after US presidents is well known. Less well known is the magnitude of the increased propensity to name babies after presidents when those babies are born on the president’s birthday. In this article that propensity is evaluated and, in addition, the increased propensity to name children after various holidays and months is also assessed. The analysis makes use of the Social Security Death Index, which contains recor…
Analysis of Pollution Hazard Intensity
Heavy industrialization has resulted in the contamination of soil by metals from anthropogenic sources in Anniston, Alabama. This situation calls for increased public awareness of the soil contamination issue and better knowledge of the main factors contributing to the potential sources contaminating residential soil. The purpose of this spatial epidemiology research is to describe the effects of physical factors on the concentration of lead (Pb)…
On Tracking and Disaggregating Center Points of Population
In this article we explore methods for tracking and disaggregating five alternately defined mean and median center points of population, measures that can help in interpreting the forces underlying shifting settlement patterns. We argue that the point that minimizes the sum of squared great circle distances is more conceptually appealing than the center point located via the method currently employed by the U.S. Census Bureau. We also suggest tha…

Geographic Clustering of Adult Asthma Hospitalization and Residential Exposure to Pollution at a United States–Canada Border Crossing
Objectives. We conducted a case–control study of adulthood asthma and point-source respirable particulate air pollution with asthma-diagnosed case patients (n = 3717) and gastroenteritis-diagnosed control patients (n = 4129) to determine effects of particulate air pollution on public health. Methods. We used hospitalization data from Buffalo, NY, neighborhoods for a 5-year period (1996 through 2000), geographic information systems techniques, the…

The Effects of Spatial Population Distributions and Political Districting on Minority Representation
In this article, the authors explore the relationships between the geographical distribution of population, potential political redistricting schemes, and the resulting level of minority representation. The maximal fraction of districts that are minority districts is twice the fraction of minorities in the total population. The authors show how this maximum declines with increasing residential segregation. Finally, they provide some simulation re…

The Dynamics of Neighborhood Age Composition
In this paper we investigate the changing demography of neighborhoods. We focus upon the dynamics of the age structure of neighborhoods, paying particular attention to the roles of (a) the magnitude of mobility and (b) the age composition of in-migrants and out-migrants. A model for studying the changing age composition of neighborhoods is developed, and alternative scenarios characterized by the nature of in-movement and out-movement are examine…
Changes in geographic proximity between parents and their adult children
We examine how characteristics of both parents and their adult children condition the changes in intergenerational geographic proximity. Using panel data from the US National Survey of Families and Households, we employ multinomial logistic regression techniques to examine the impact of the joint effects of each generation's structural characteristics on the likelihood of changes in distance between the target persons. Our results show that an in…
The Spatial Separation of Parents and Their Adult Children
In this paper, we examine the distribution of distances between adult children and their parents in the U.S. We make use of the 1987 National Survey of Families and Households to first describe the distance distribution. We then suggest that the spatial separation between parents and their adult children varies with location and with demographic and socioeconomic characteristics. The results of multiple regression analyses indicate that adult chi…

Migration Analysis Using Data With Time Intervals of Differing Widths
Dynamic flow modeling with interregional dependency effects
Causative matrix methods can be used to project levels of population change, to monitor changing migration trends, and to aid in forecasting movement during periods of consolidation and dissipation. They are appealing because they provide measures of the changing strengths of all interregional dependency effects. Separate competing destinations and competing origins perspectives on temporal change can be obtained. The column sums and the eigenval…
Vacancy Chains, Information Filters, and Interregional Migration
An interregional migration model based on vacancy chains, on an intervening-opportunities interaction hypothesis, and incorporating endogenously generated imperfect information flows is developed. Analytical results are determined for the case of perfect information. Numerical experiments are undertaken for the case of imperfect information. Cyclical behavior in the state variables occurs around the perfect-information equilibrium. Suggestions fo…
Wage distributions and spatial preferences in competitive job search and migration
Aggregate interstate migration data [for the United States] indicate that the majority of observed flows are from higher to lower wage states, quite contrary to the predictions of human capital theory. It is argued that a search theoretic framework may be used to complement and strengthen human capital theory. Such a framework may then include consideration of the flows of job information and aspects of job competition. A model is proposed for ap…
Interregional Migration Models with Source and Interaction Information
The importance of information flows in models of migration are emphasized. In particular, migrants are, assumed to react to two types of information about job vacancies. 'Interaction information' may be defined as interpersonal communication between recent migrants and their former neighbors or friends, and 'source information' represents a direct flow of information from employers or agencies to individuals. Models are developed that investigate…

New Directions in the Modelling of Interregional Migration
"This paper suggests two new approaches to modeling job-related migration. Both approaches are designed to simultaneously capture the inertia of past flows and information pertaining to economic conditions. One approach makes use of the incremental form of the logit model, and the other models the job application and competition process. Both techniques are illustrated using interregional migration flow data for the United States, and the results…

Economic-Demographic Models for Forecasting Interregional Migration
A class of spatial economic-demographic forecasting models is proposed. The models combine elements of traditional Markov and economic gravity models. A base-period probability structure is modified by the changing relative distribution of economic opportunity. Estimation issues are addressed, and an empirical application to US interstate migration during the late 1970s is described. It is contended that the framework represents a merger of past …
A nested urban recreation site choice model
Nested and simultaneous site choice hypotheses are tested and compared by multinomial logit analysis of travel to urban forest recreation sites in the Chicago metropolitan area. The nested model fits the data better, demonstrates violation of the independence from irrelevant alternatives (IIA) assumption in the simultaneous model, and offers a somewhat different explanation of site choice behavior

Alternative Strategies for Selling Land to the Highest Bidder
In this paper the properties of several models of sequential bidding behavior are evaluated. In particular, the returns to a seller who maximizes the probability of selling to the highest bidder are compared with the returns of a rank minimization strategy which is more conservative. The comparison reveals that the rank minimization strategy will generally lead to shorter waiting times, higher expected selling prices, and lower probabilities of r…

On the relationship between handedness and longevity
During the past five years, there have been numerous studies of the relationship between handedness and longevity. In this report, I review previous contributions and use methods of survival analysis on a set of 4,448 males to determine the strength of the relationship between handedness and longevity. The results indicate that left-handers have small, yet significant, declines in survival probabilities between the ages of 65 and 85
Elderly Parents and the Geographic Availability of their Adult Children
Using data from the 1987 National Survey of Families and Households, this study examines the distribution and determinants of the geographic distance between elderly parents and their adult children. The majority of elderly Americans have at least one adult child living within 10 miles of their residence; for those with two or more adult children, the second-closest child is usually within 30 miles. Compared with the urban elderly, rural elders l…
