SUMMARY:Jennifer Van Hook\, Penn State
DESCRIPTION:“Exposure to the United States and Healthy Eating Among U.S. Immigrants: \nA Life Course Perspective on Immigrant Health” \nABSTRACT \nThe negative acculturation perspective predicts that immigrants’ health advantages erode with increasing exposure to the U.S. due to the adoption of the unhealthy default American lifestyle. Focusing on diet\, we argue that this perspective underestimates immigrants’ abilities to maintain healthy eating patterns\, especially among adult immigrant arrivals\, and fails to account for how migration during childhood can disrupt important developmental processes. We advance an alternative “life course perspective on immigrant health” and present evidence for it by examining the associations of age at arrival and duration of residence with healthy eating among adult immigrants. Our results suggest that earlier age at arrival is negatively associated with healthy eating and that duration of residence has a weak but positive association with healthy eating\, especially among those who arrived as adults. The results call into question notions that emphasize a steady erosion of healthy eating with time and acculturation. Instead\, they support the life course perspective and point to the importance of early childhood exposures for understanding how living in the U.S. influences healthy eating among immigrants. \nWatch Podcast Here \nWebsite \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Tyler McCormick\, University of Washington
DESCRIPTION:“Probabilistic Cause-of-Death Assignment using Verbal Autopsies” \nABSTRACT \nIn areas without complete-coverage civil registration and vital statistics systems there is uncertainty about even the most basic demographic indicators.  In such areas the majority of deaths occur outside hospitals and are not recorded.  Worldwide\, fewer than one-third of deaths are assigned a cause\, with the least information available from the most impoverished nations.  In populations like this\, verbal autopsy (VA) is a commonly used tool to assess cause of death and estimate cause-specific mortality rates and the distribution of deaths by cause.  VA uses an interview with caregivers of the decedent to elicit data describing the signs and symptoms leading up to the death.  This talk describes a new statistical method to classify cause of death using information acquired through VA.  Unlike current approaches\, our method shares uncertainty between cause of death assignments for specific individuals and the distribution of deaths by cause across the population.  We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method using side-by-side comparisons with both observed and simulated data. \nWebsite \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Enrico Moretti\, UC Berkeley
DESCRIPTION:The Effect of State Taxes on the Geographical Location of Top Earners: Evidence from Star Scientists \nAbstract \nIn the U.S.\, personal and business taxes vary enormously from state to state. While these differences have the potential to affect the geographical location of highly skilled workers and employers across the country\, evidence on their effects is limited. We uncover large\, stable\, and precisely estimated effects of personal and corporate taxes on star scientists’ migration patterns. The long run elasticity of mobility relative to taxes is 1.8 for personal income taxes and 1.9 for state corporate income tax. While there are other factors that drive when innovative individual and innovative companies decide to locate\, there are enough firms and workers on the margin that state taxes matter. \nWebsite \nEnrico Moretti is the Michael Peevy and Donald Vial Professor of Economics at the University of California\, Berkeley. He serves as the Editor in Chief of the Journal of Economic Perspectives and is a Visiting Scholar at the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco.

SUMMARY:Mark Hayward\, University of Texas at Austin
DESCRIPTION:“Do Recent Declines in U.S. Life Expectancy Mean Bad News for Healthy Life Expectancy?“ \nABSTRACT \nLife expectancy for non-Hispanic white (henceforth white) Americans with less than high school education has fallen in recent years—particularly for women – while life expectancy has increased substantially for the college educated population.  However\, the extent to which the declines/increases in life expectancy translate into healthy life expectancy remains unclear. \nMethods: We combine data from the Health and Retirement Study and U.S. Vital Statistics\, using the Sullivan method\, to decompose the change in total life expectancy (TLE) to healthy life expectancy (HLE) and disabled life expectancy (DLE) between 2000 and 2010\, specific to gender and education groups. We measured disabled life expectancy using both severe (ADL) and less severe (IADL) disability prevalence. \nResults: Consistent with previous research\, we find a modest downward/stable TLE change in the US is concentrated at the bottom end of the education distribution for whites and at ages prior to age 65. Although there was little change in TLE\, substantial gains in DLE and losses in HLE were observed\, due to the increased rates of disability (especially ADL disability) before age 70. Among the college educated\, TLE increased substantially during the decade\, especially among males. HLE also increased over the decade\, with much of the increase from declining mortality after age 70. Much of the improvement in HLE from mortality was offset by a rise in IADL disability. \nConclusions: The demographic factors influencing HLE shifted from younger ages to advanced ages with higher levels of educational attainment. The findings show that focusing exclusively on the declines in life expectancy\, and external causes of death\, obfuscates a more dynamic decline in health among whites with low levels of education and significant improvements in health among highly educated persons. \nWebsite \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n830-9am: Prof. Dora Costa- 4284J Public Affairs Building \n9am-930am: Prof. Teresa Seeman-  4284J Public Affairs Building \n930am-10am: Prof. Dawn Upchurch- 4284J Public Affairs Building \n10am-1030am: Prof. Kathleen McGarry- 4284J Public Affairs Building \n1030am-11am: Heeju Sohn\, Postdoc- 4284J Public Affairs Building \n12-130pm: Seminar Talk- 4240 Public Affairs Building \n130-230pm: Proseminar Lunch- 4240 Public Affairs Building

SUMMARY:Pauline Rossi\, Paris
DESCRIPTION:“Strategic Choices in Polygamous Households: Theory and Evidence from Senegal” \nABSTRACT \nThis paper proposes a strategic framework to account for fertility choices in polygamous households.  A theoretical model specifies the main drivers of fertility in the African context and describes how the fertility of one wife might impact the behavior of her co-wives. It generates predictions to test for strategic interactions. Exploiting original data from a household survey and the Demographic and Health Surveys in Senegal\, empirical tests show that children are strategic complements. One wife raises her fertility in response to an increase by the other wife\, because children are the best claim to resources controlled by the husband. This result is the first quantitative evidence of a reproductive rivalry between co-wives. It suggests that the sustained high level of fertility in Africa does not merely reflect women’s lack of control over births\, as is often argued\, but also their incentives to have many children. This paper also contributes to the literature on household behavior as one of the few attempts to open the black box of non-nuclear families. \nWebsite \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu

SUMMARY:Till von Wachter\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:“Firming Up Inequality” \nABSTRACT \nWe use a massive\, new\, matched employer-employee database for the United States to analyze the contribution of firms to the rise in earnings inequality from 1978 to 2013. We find that two thirds of the rise in the variance of earnings is associated with workers’ employers\, whereas one third occurs within firms. The employer-related rise in the variance can be decomposed into two roughly equally important forces – a rise in the assortative matching of high-wage workers to high-wage firms and a rise in segregation of similar workers between firms. In contrast\, we do not find a rise in the variance of firm-specific pay once we control for worker composition. The rise in the employer-related inequality was particularly strong in smaller and medium-sized firms (explaining 84% for firms with fewer than 10\,000 employees)\, driven by worker sorting and segregation. In contrast\, in the very largest firms with 10\,000+ employees\, almost half of the increase in the variance of earnings took place within firms\, driven by both declines in earnings for employees below the median and a substantial rise in earnings for the 10% best-paid employees. We also find that for the very top earners\, who experienced particularly large earnings gains over the last decades\, a larger share of earnings growth occurred within firms. However\, the contribution of these top earners to the overall increase in earnings inequality is small. \nSpeaker Website \n

SUMMARY:Jere Behrman\, University of Pennsylvania
DESCRIPTION:“Early-Life Undernourishment in Developing Countries: Prevalence\, Associations/Impacts over the Life Cycle and Determinants” \nAbstract:  This presentation first summarizes the prevalence of undernutrition among children in developing countries.  It then summarizes impacts and associations over the life cycle using the Guatemalan INCAP longitudinal data (to estimate the impacts of both a protein-rich nutritional supplements allocated randomly among a small number of villages and of height-for-age z scores at 24-36 months) and the Young Lives longitudinal data from Ethiopia\, India\, Peru and Vietnam to investigate whether the critical window for nutrition ends in infancy.   Finally it summarizes estimates using longitudinal data from Guatemala and Cebu in the Philippines of the impact of protein and non-protein energy on early childhood height and weight. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars@ccpr.ucla.edu \n9:00 am – 9:30 am: Prof. Judith Seltzer \n10:00 am – 10:30 am: Prof. Dora Costa \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Mieke Eeckhaut \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Manisha Shah

SUMMARY:Ilan H. Meyer & Mark S. Handcock\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:“Innovative Sampling Approaches for Hard to Reach Populations: Design of a National Probability Study of Lesbians\, Gay Men\, Bisexuals\, and Transgender Peoples and  Network Sampling of Hard to Reach Populations” \nSpeakers: \nIlan H. Meyer\, Williams Distinguished Senior Scholar for Public Policy at the Williams Institute \nMark S. Handcock\, Professor of Statistics at UCLA and Director of the Center for Social Statistics \nDescription: \nCome for the exciting seminar then stay for the free lunch and discussion. A seminar led by Ilan H. Meyer followed immediately by a Brown Bag Lunch led by Mark S. Handcock. \nDr. Meyer is Principal Investigator of the Generations and TransPop Surveys. Generations is a survey of a nationally representative sample of 3 generations of lesbians\, gay men\, and bisexuals. TransPop is the first national probability sample survey of transgender individuals in the United States. Both studies attempt to obtain large nationally representative samples of hard to reach populations. Dr. Meyer will review sampling issues with LGBT populations and speak on the importance of measuring population health of LGBTs and the underlying aspects in designing a national probability survey. \nFrom a contrasting perspective\, the field of Survey Methodology is facing many challenges. The general trend of declining response rates is making it harder for survey researchers to reach their intended population of interest using classical survey sampling methods. \nIn the followup Brown Bag Lunch\, led by Mark S. Handcock\, participants will discuss statistical challenges and approaches to sampling hard to reach populations. Transgenders\, for example\, are a rare and stigmatized population. If the transgender community exhibits networked social behavior\, then network sampling methods may be useful approaches that compliment classical survey methods.\nParticipants are encouraged to speak on ideas of statistical methods for surveys.

SUMMARY:Michael Greenstone\, University of Chicago
DESCRIPTION:“Energy Efficiency Investments\, Self-Selection\, and Welfare” \nAbstract: This paper evaluates the welfare consequences\, rather than simply measuring energy savings\, of a popular energy efficiency program exploiting a 100\,000 household field experiment in Wisconsin. There are five main findings.  First\, nudges\, information\, and behavioral interventions do not increase program participation but monetary incentives do. Second\, the take-up of energy efficiency investments is relatively inelastic to expected returns and reveals substantial non-monetary benefits and costs. Third\, individuals that select into the energy efficiency program based on financial incentives are less likely to make efficiency investments than individuals that select in on their own\, suggesting that these programs’ returns may decline as they expand. Fourth\, we find that realized energy savings are just 64% of projected savings and the social internal rate of return on these investments is -1.8%. Fifth\, the revealed preference welfare analysis suggests that the program reduced welfare\, primarily because subsidies exceeded uninternalized externality damages. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Till von Wachter \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Edward Kung \n3:30 pm – 4:00 pm: Prof. Moshe Buchinsky \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Leah Boustan \n4:30 pm – 5:30 pm: Prof. Michael Jerrett (CHS) \n

SUMMARY:Paula England\, New York University
DESCRIPTION:“How the Motherhood Penalty Varies by Wage\, Cognitive Skill\, and Race: A Reassessment”\n*Co-sponsored with the Family Working Group. \nAbstract:  Motherhood reduces women’s wages. Is the size of this penalty largest among the most or least advantaged women? Two 2010 papers using the same panel data suggest opposite answers to this question. With and without controls for years of employment experience\, Wilde et al. find higher motherhood wage penalties for those with higher cognitive skill\, while Budig and Hodges find higher penalties for women at lower wage levels. Taken together\, these findings are puzzling\, because women with higher cognitive skills typically have higher wages. Using unconditional quantile regression\, panel data\, and fixed effects\, we assess how penalties vary by intersections of skill\, wage level\, and race. We find that the most advantaged women—white women with high cognitive skills and high wages—experience the highest total proportionate penalties\, estimated to include effects mediated through experience. Although this group has the most continuous experience\, their high returns to experience make even the small amounts of time they typically take out of employment for child rearing costly. Penalties net of experience\, which might represent employer discrimination or effects of motherhood on job performance\, do not differ consistently by race\, skill\, or wage; they afflict advantaged and disadvantaged women approximately equally. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars@ccpr.ucla.edu \n10:00 am – 10:30 am: Heeju Sohn \n10:30 am – 11:00 am: Mieke Eeckhaut \n11:00 am – 11:30 am: Sung Park \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Larissa Dooley\, Karra Greenberg\, Rustin Partow\, Amber Villalobos \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Jamie Goodwin-White \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Lei Feng \n4:30 pm – 5:00 pm: Karra Greenberg

SUMMARY:Kevin Lang\, Boston University
DESCRIPTION:“Does Competition Eliminate Discrimination? Evidence from the Commercial Sex Market in Singapore” \nAbstract: The street sex worker market in Geylang\, Singapore is a highly competitive market in which clients can search legally at negligible cost\, making it ideal for testing Diamond’s hypothesis regarding search and monopoly pricing. As Diamond predicts\, price discrimination survives in this market. Despite an excess supply of workers\, but consistent with their self-reported attitudes and beliefs\, sex workers charge Caucasians (Bangladeshis) more (less)\, based on perceived willingness to pay\, and are more (less) likely to approach and reach an agreement with them. Consistent with taste discrimination\, they avoid Indians\, charge more and reach an agreement with them less frequently. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n10:30 am – 11:00 am : Prof. Mosche Buchinsky (8373 Bunche Hall) \n11:00 am – 11:30 am : Prof. Manisha Shah ( 6333 Public Affairs Bldg.) \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Carolina Arteaga\, Amanda Nguyen\, Lena Reiss \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Sarah Reber \n3:00 pm – 4:00 pm: Prof. Leah Boustan (9262 Bunche Hall) \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Till von Wachter (9367 Bunche Hall) \n4:30 pm – 5:00 pm: Prof. Randall Akee (6367 Public Affairs Bldg.) \n

SUMMARY:Raj Chetty\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:“The Relationship between Income and Life Expectancy: Local Area Variation in the United States\, 2001-2014” \nAbstract:  We examine inequality in life expectancy using 1.4 billion anonymous earnings and mortality records covering the U.S. population from 1999-2014. We present four main findings. First\, higher income is associated with greater longevity throughout the income distribution. The richest 1% of American men live 15 years longer than the poorest 1%\, while the richest 1% of American women live 10 years longer than the poorest 1%. Second\, inequality in life expectancy has increased in recent years at the national level. From 2001-2014\, the richest 5% of Americans gained approximately 3 years in longevity\, but the poorest 5% experienced no gains. Third\, life expectancy varies substantially across areas\, especially for low-income individuals. Life expectancy varies by approximately 5 years between the areas with the highest and lowest longevity. Trends in life expectancy varied substantially across areas as well\, ranging from gains of more than 4 years between 2001 and 2014\, to losses of more than 2 years. Fourth\, differences in life expectancy across areas for low-income individuals are highly correlated with differences in health behaviors such as smoking\, obesity and exercise. In contrast\, life expectancy for low-income Americans is not significantly correlated with measures of the quantity and quality of medical care\, local income inequality\, residential segregation\, and labor market conditions. Low-income individuals tend to live the longest (and have the most healthful behaviors) in affluent cities with highly educated populations and high levels of government expenditures. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars@ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Prof. Jennie Brand\, Ryan Cho\, Dylan Connor\, Ravaris Moore\, Amanda Nguyen\, Ben Smith and Chad Stecher \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Manisha Shah \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Leah Boustan \n3:30 pm – 4:00 pm: Prof. Moshe Buchinsky \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Till Von Wachter \n4:30 pm – 5:00 pm: Prof. Adriana Lleras-Muney

SUMMARY:David Grusky\, Stanford University
DESCRIPTION:“The Death of the American Dream?” \nAbstract: Whenever an election rolls around\, we can count on dire warnings that the American Dream is under threat\, that hard work and talent are no longer guarantees of success\, and that what now matters most is winning the “birth lottery” and being raised by rich parents.  But are these dire warnings true?  Can a child born into a middle-class family expect to earn much more than a child born into a poor family?  What about a child born into the one percent?  Does that translate into a huge boon to the child’s earnings?  Drawing on new tax-return data\, the hard facts about social mobility in the U.S. are presented\, with a special focus on differences in the mobility opportunities of boys and girls.\n*Co-sponsored with the Dept. of Sociology & Inequality Working Group \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n11:00 am – 11:30 am: Heeju Sohn \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Ryan Cho\, Dylan Connor\, Alexis Cooke\, Larissa Dooley\, Lei Feng\, Ravaris Moore\, Lena Riess\, Rosanna Smart\, Chad Stecher \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Till von Wachter \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Siwei Cheng \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Jennie Brand \n4:30 pm – 5:00 pm: Prof. Judith Seltzer

SUMMARY:Ian W. Holloway\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:“Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) Awareness\, Attitudes and Uptake Among Young Gay\, Bisexual and Other Men Who Have Sex With Men (MSM) in California.” \nAbstract:  Young men who have sex with men (YMSM) in the United States (US) continue to be disproportionately affected by HIV with large racial/ethnic disparities among African-Americans and Latinos. The World Health Organization now recommends that all people at substantial risk of HIV should be offered pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). While PrEP awareness has generally increased\, actual PrEP usage among MSM has been limited. Little is known about PrEP awareness\, attitudes\, and uptake among racially and ethnically diverse YMSM. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Matthew Miller\, Lena Reiss

SUMMARY:James Macinko\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:“Self-reported racial identity\, genomic ancestry\, and health disparities in Brazil: an exploratory study” \nAbstract: Health disparities based on skin color/racial identification are present in many societies. In Brazil\, studies have shown that people who describe their skin color as other than white (e.g. mixed\, black\, and/or indigenous) are more likely to report discrimination\, are less likely to receive some types of health services\, experience higher mortality\, and have higher rates of some negative health behaviors. But how should we interpret these disparities given Brazil’s complex\, fluid\, and changing system of ethnoracial classification and racial identity? This study explores the congruence between genome-wide measures of ancestry and self-reported ethnoracial identify in Brazil and assesses their relationship with 4 health outcomes with distinct etiologies: self-rated health\, hypertension\, complications from Chagas disease\, and all-cause mortality. Preliminary results are discussed in terms of implications for measuring and addressing such disparities in a dynamic multiracial society. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Larissa Dooley

SUMMARY:Sigal Alon\, Tel Aviv University
DESCRIPTION:“Race\, Class and Affirmative Action” \nView Podcast Here \nAbstract: This book-length manuscript (forthcoming by the Russell Sage Foundation in the Fall 2015) evaluates the ability of class-based affirmative action to promote the social and economic mobility of disadvantaged populations and boost diversity at selective postsecondary institutions\, as compared with race-based policy. The book draws from within- and between-country comparisons of several prototypes of affirmative action policy. She uses the United States as a case study of race-based preferences\, and Israel as a case study of class-based preferences. For each country she compares the model that has actually been implemented to a simulated scenario of the alternative policy type. The overarching goal of this book is to develop new\, and more global insights about the potential of race-neutral public policy to promote equality in higher education. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n10:00 am – 10:30 am: Prof. Siwei Cheng \n10:30 am – 11:00 am: Prof. Megan Sweeney \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Sara Johnsen\, Lena Reiss\, Mienah Sharif\, Chad Stecher \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Judith Seltzer \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Rob Mare

SUMMARY:Rick Dale\, University of California\, Merced
DESCRIPTION:“Quantifying the dynamics of multimodal communication with multimodal data.” \n*Presented by the Center for Social Statistics \nAbstract: Human communication is built upon an array of signals\, from body movement to word selection. The sciences of language and communication tend to study these signals individually. However\, natural human communication uses all these signals together simultaneously\, and in complex social systems of various sizes. It is an open puzzle to uncover how this multimodal communication is structured in time and organized at different scales. Such a puzzle includes analysis of two-person interactions. It also involves an understanding of much larger systems\, such as communication over social media at an unprecedentedly massive scale. \nCollaborators and I have explored communication across both of these scales\, and I will describe examples in the domain of conflict. For example\, we’ve studied conflict communication in two-person interactions using video analysis of body and voice dynamics. At the broader scale\, we have also used large-scale social media behavior (Twitter) during a massively shared experience of conflict\, the 2012 Presidential Debates. These projects reveal the importance of dynamics. In two-person conflict\, for example\, signal dynamics (e.g.\, body\, voice) during interaction can reveal the quality of that interaction. In addition\, collective behavior on Twitter can be predicted even by simple linear models using debate dynamics between Obama and Romney (e.g.\, one interrupting the other). \nThe collection\, quantification\, and modeling of multitemporal and multivariate datasets hold much promise for new kinds of interdisciplinary collaborations. I will end by discussing how they may guide new theoretical directions for pursuing the organization and temporal structure of multimodality in communication. \nUrl: http://statistics.ucla.edu/seminars/2016-03-31/2:30pm/314-royce-hall

SUMMARY:Betsy Sinclair\, Washington University in St Louis
DESCRIPTION:“Electronic Homestyle: Tweeting Ideology” \nAbstract: Ideal points are central to the study of political partisanship and an essential component to our understanding of legislative and electoral behavior. We employ automated text analysis on tweets from Members of Congress to estimate their ideal points using Naive Bayes classification and Support Vector Machine classification. We extend these tools to estimate the proportion of partisan speech used in each legislator’s tweets. We demonstrate an association between these measurements\, existing ideal point measurements\, and district ideology. \nUrl: http://statistics.ucla.edu/seminars/2016-03-29/2:30pm/314-royce-hall

SUMMARY:Kathryn Yount\, Emory University
DESCRIPTION:“Community Norms\, Collective Practices\, and Partner Violence against Women in Bangladesh” \nView Podcast Here \nStudy 1: Child marriage\, before age 18\, is a collective practice reflecting institutionalized male dominance and is a risk factor for intimate partner violence (IPV) against women. Worldwide\, Bangladesh has the highest prevalence of IPV and very early child marriage\, before age 15. How the community prevalence of very early child marriage influences a woman’s risk of IPV is unknown. Using panel data (2013–2014) from 3\,355 women first married 4–12 years prior in 77 Bangladeshi villages\, we tested the protective effect of a woman’s later first marriage (age 18 or older)\, the adverse effect of a higher village prevalence of very early child marriage\, and whether any protective effect of a woman’s later first marriage was diminished or reversed where very early child marriage was more prevalent\, suggesting that later marriage in such communities evokes violent backlash. Almost half (44.5%) of women reported incident physical IPV\, and most (78.9%) had married before age 18. At the village-level\, the incidence of physical IPV ranged from 11.4% to 75.0%\, and the mean age at first marriage ranged from 14.8 to 18.0 years. The mean village-level prevalence of very early child marriage was 20.3% and ranged from 3.9% to 51.9%. In main-effects models\, marrying at 18 or later protected against physical IPV\, and more prevalent very early child marriage (village % married before age 15) was a risk factor. The interaction of individual later marriage and village very early child marriage prevalence was positive; thus\, the likely protective effect of marrying later was negated in villages where very early child marriage was prevalent. Collectively reducing very early child marriage may be needed to protect women from IPV. \n  \nStudy 2: Men’s perpetration of intimate partner violence (IPV) is common\, but its multilevel determinants are understudied. Using a probability sample of 570 married men 18–34 years in 50 urban and 62 rural communities in the Bangladesh survey of the 2011 UN Multi-Country Study of Men and Violence\, we tested for (a) a positive relationship of more equitable community gender norms among senior men (n=938; married\, 35-49 years) and (b) a negative relationship of a junior man’s greater exposure to childhood violence with his lifetime rate of physical IPV perpetration (n=570; married\, 18–34 years). We also tested whether more equitable community gender norms mitigated the rate of physical IPV perpetration associated with more childhood exposure to violence. Among younger married men\, 50% reportedly ever perpetrated physical IPV\, the mean lifetime number of physical IPV types perpetrated was 1.1 (SD 1.3) out of 5.0 listed. A majority (64%) reported childhood exposure to violence. In multilevel Poisson models\, a man with more childhood exposure to violence had a higher log rate (Est. 0.31\, SE 0.04\, p<.001) and a man living amidst the most equitable gender norms had a lower log rate (Est. -0.52\, SE 0.19\, p<.01) of perpetrating physical IPV; however\, no significant cross-level interaction was observed. Interventions that address the trauma of childhood violence and promote more equitable community gender norms may be needed to mitigate IPV perpetration by younger men. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n9:30 am – 10:00 am: Prof. Hiram Beltran-Sanchez \n11:00 am – 11:30 am: Prof. Patrick Heuveline \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Sara Johnsen \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Corrina Moucheraud \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Anne Pebley \n4:00 pm – 4:30 pm: Prof. Manisha Shah \n

SUMMARY:Seth Spielman\, University of Colorado\, Boulder
DESCRIPTION:“Measuring neighborhoods in the new data economy.” \nAbstract:  The data economy in the United States has changed dramatically in the past 5-10 years.  Naively one might argue that this new data economy holds particular promise for academics\, because revolutions in science are often preceded by revolutions in measurement.   But for social scientists who study cities in the United States these changes are mixed.  The new data economy is complex complicates the study of neighborhoods.  In this talk I’ll describe one such complication – the replacement of the long form of the decennial census with the American Community Survey in 2010.  The ACS produces estimates for thousands of variables at a variety of geographic scales.  However\, estimates from the ACS are terribly imprecise\, for many policy relevant variables ACS estimates are almost unusable.  In this talk I’ll describe the quality of the ACS and use its shortcomings to motivate a discussion of changing the way we measure neighborhoods.  Rather than just talk about alternatives I’ll present results from two novel computational methods that leverage new ways of thinking about the measurement of neighborhoods.  One of these methods can be used to process existing public domain ACS estimates to dramatically reduce the margin of error. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: Dylan Connor\, Matthew Miller\, Sung Park\, Rosanna Smart\, Chad Stecher\, John Sullivan \n2:30 – 3:00 pm: Prof. Siwei Cheng

SUMMARY:Randall Akee\, UCLA
DESCRIPTION:“Race Matters: Income Inequality and Mobility from 2000 to 2013” \nView Podcast Here \nAbstract: Using unique linked Internal Revenue Service and U.S. Census Bureau data matched at the individual level\, we examine the differences in levels and trends for income inequality across racial and ethnic groups in the United States. Our data span 2000 to 2013\, a period including the Great Recession\, and will thus inform us on how financial crises affect inequality for important sub-groups of Americans. Previous research has focused on the increasing concentration of income and assets in the top decile of tax filers; this analysis will provide information on the entire distribution of income by decile\, highlighting the circumstances of those at the lower end of the distribution as well. Because our data include both administrative and census data\, our research is the first to provide detailed income and wage inequality information for racial and ethnic groups. Finally\, we focus on short-run measures of mobility and document this measure over the decade and post-Great Recession era. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch \n

SUMMARY:James Raymo\, University of Wisconsin\, Madison
DESCRIPTION:“Precarious employment and fertility: Insights from Japan’s “Lost 20 Years”” \nAbstract: In this paper\, we examine relationships between precarious employment and fertility. We focus on Japan\, a country characterized by a prolonged economic downturn\, significant increases in both unemployment and non-standard employment\, a strong link between marriage and childbearing\, and pronounced gender differences in economic roles and opportunities. Analyses of retrospective employment\, marriage\, and fertility data for the period 1990-2007 indicate that changing employment circumstances for men are associated with lower levels of marriage while changes for women are associated with higher levels of marital fertility. These two offsetting relationships combine to limit the overall association between changes in employment circumstances and declining fertility. Results of counterfactual standardization analyses suggest that Japan’s total fertility rate (TFR) would have been slightly lower than observed if aggregate- and individual-level employment conditions had remained unchanged from the 1980s. We discuss the implications of these results in light of ongoing policy discussions about fertility promotion and academic debates about the changing nature of gender relations within the family. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n10:30 am – 11:00 am: Prof. Siwei Cheng \n11:00 am – 11:30 am: Prof. Robert Mare \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch: \n2:30 pm – 3:00 pm: Prof. Jennie Brand \n3:00 pm – 3:30 pm: Prof. Patrick Heuveline \n3:30 pm – 4:00 pm: Prof. Judith Seltzer

SUMMARY:Christine Dehlendorf\, UC San Francisco
DESCRIPTION:“Health Equity in Family Planning and Family Planning Care: Putting the Focus back on Women” \nView Podcast Here \nAbstract: Differences in contraceptive use and unintended pregnancy by race/ethnicity are well described. Interpretation of these differences\, and how they relate to the desire to achieve health equity\, is complex due to the nature of reproduction\, including the personal\, social and historical context in which reproductive and contraceptive decisions are made. Lack of attention to these contextual factors has the potential to interfere with the ultimate goal of optimizing women’s reproductive health and to exacerbate health inequities. This talk will review data regarding women’s reproductive outcomes and how they vary by their sociodemographic characteristics\, and discuss conventional approaches in both public health efforts and clinical family planning care to thinking about and responding to these data. I will then make the case for a woman-centered approach that focuses on individual’s preferences and conceptualizations of reproductive health as the best strategy to meet women’s needs and promote health equity. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars AT ccpr.ucla.edu \n10:00 – 10:30 am: Prof. Jessica Gipson \n10:30 am – 11:00 am: Mieke Eeckhaut \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch:Alexis Cooke\, Larissa Dooley

SUMMARY:Randall Kuhn\, University of Denver
DESCRIPTION:“Thirty-Five Years Later: Long-Term Impacts of the Matlab Maternal and Child Health Program on Migration and Labor Market Outcomes” \nAbstract: Despite global proliferation of reproductive health and family planning programs\, little is known about their long‐term effects. This talk introduces a project that provides causal evidence on the impact of the Matlab Maternal and Child Health and Family Planning Program (MCH‐FP) in Bangladesh\, over thirty‐five years after it began. The Matlab Health and Socioeconomic Survey 2 (MHSS2) collected surveys and objective tests from a sample of 36\,000 participants\, including beneficiaries and their descendants\, with followup of ~90% of migrants living outside the study area or abroad. I introduce the larger study in the context of evaluating MCH/FP program impacts on migration and labor market success. To the extent that family planning reduced competition for resources\, the program may discourage migration among treated populations. However\, to the extent that child health services increased human capital\, treated individuals may be better positioned to migrate successfully. The results illustrate the importance of intensive migrant followup for reducing attrition bias. \nIf you are interested in meeting with or joining the speaker for lunch\, please send email to Seminars@ccpr.ucla.edu \n9:00 am – 9:30 am: Prof. Judith Seltzer \n10:00 am – 10:20 am: Prof. Manisha Shah \n10:30 am – 11:00 am: Prof. Siwei Cheng \n11:30 am  – 12:00 pm: Prof. Patrick Heuveline \n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm: Seminar \n1:30 pm – 2:30 pm: Proseminar Lunch:  Karra Greenberg\, Sung S.
