Households with children have been suggested to play a key role in ethnic residential segregation. One possible mechanism is that school district boundaries affect their segregation patterns, but d...

This paper presents an algorithm based on the bootstrap to select an admissible aggregation level, that is, the minimum number of occupational categories which yield a gender segregation value which is not significantly smaller than that obtained from the large number of occupational categories usually available in any data set. The approach is illustrated using Labor Force Survey data for Spai...

STUDY OBJECTIVE This study was designed to discover whether the relation between income inequality and population death rates within the United States was mediated by the degree of residential segregation between rich and poor. DESIGN Using data for 276 metropolitan areas in the USA, residential segregation was defined as the extent to which people with different levels of income live in the ...

The effect of additions of antimony (0.05% Sb) to silicon steel on the improvement of the electrical properties of non-oriented steel sheet was investigated. Measurements of surface segregation of Sb were performed under UHV conditions in the temperature range from 450 to 900 OC, using AES and TDS. Maximum equilibrium surface segregation of antimony was determined at 700 OC. At higher temperatu...

Tests are reported of the possibility that local information from contour junctions and from corners of intersecting surfaces is used for perceived surface segregation. Stimuli were two intersecting squares with small disks occluding different parts of the squares. The perceived segregation of the squares from one another decreased as the amount of occlusion of parts of the squares increased. T...

This paper investigates the relationship between metropolitan area growth, inequality, and segregation by income across neighborhoods. I propose a simple model based on the notion that rising income inequality creates housing market pressure leading to residential segregation by income. However, because different income groups live in different types of houses, the housing stock must change if ...

This article focuses on two dimensions of labour market integration, sorting into different industries (niching) and workplace establishments (segregation) by share migrant workers. We seek to understand what degree these immigrants’ lack integration—niching segregation—overlap with each other. The study is based Finnish individual, panel relational registry data, we focus the three largest imm...
