Employer-Provided Health Insurance Coverage: A Comparison of Employed Native-born and Immigrant Americans Family and Consumer Sciences Research Journal 40,1 (September 2011): 15-27. Also: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1552-3934.2011.02085.x/abstract Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Wiley Online Keyword(s): Benefits, Insurance; Employment; Immigrants; Insurance, Health; Job Tenure Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This research examined differences in employer-based health insurance coverage among employed native-born Americans and immigrants using cross-sectional and panel data from the National Longitudinal Survey, cohort 1979 (NLSY79). Compared with native-born Americans, immigrants were 10.5% less likely to have employer-based health insurance when controlling for other social and economic characteristics. Income and educational attainment of immigrants along with length of stay were predictors of employer-based coverage. Occupational characteristics such as job tenure, full-time employment, and union membership were positively associated with having employer-based health insurance coverage. |

"We Don't Talk About That": Exploring Money Conversations of Black, Hispanic, and White Households Family and Consumer Sciences published online (25 April 2021): DOI: 10.1111/fcsr.12397.

Communication around finances is essential to relational satisfaction and the acquisition of financial skills. Nevertheless, people avoid financial discussions. Using data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (n = 8,006), this study explored how race/ethnicity relates to financial discussions through the lens of capital theory. Findings show that Black and Hispanic households had the lowest rates of financial discussions. When discussions did occur, the odds of them happening were higher with friends and lower with spouses/partners or family. Family and consumer science professionals can use the results to encourage financial communication in multiple types of relationships and households. |
