My research focuses on immigrant adaptation and family
survival strategies in receiving contexts. I am currently examining life
course transitions of immigrant and native youth in the United States.
This includes a comparison of two cohorts of adolescents in their educational,
family formation and labor market trajectories. I am also examining the
role of family and school context on the early school transitions of
young children in immigrant families. Another area of research continues
my long-term interest in immigration, family/household composition and
intergenerational wealth-flows. This work addresses the economic distribution
of wealth in immigrant and native households and the stability of extended
family households over time. The relative importance of national origins
and placement in the racial/ethnic hierarchy for immigrant adaptation
also underpin much of this work. This has led to my involvement in other
research projects examining other dimensions of immigrant integration
such as the residential segregation of immigrants in the United States.
