In undertaking this analysis, I examine the large, nationally representative 5% Public Use Microdata from the Census 2000 long form. <strong>I find that children living in two-parent households with one white parent and one non-white parent are almost equally likely to identify (or be identified) as white, non-white, or multiracial. I further note that: 1.) Patterns of identification vary widely by mixed race subgroup and socioeconomic status. 2.) Racial differences in identification vary by socioeconomic status.<\/strong> 3.) The pathways to \u201cwhite passing\u201d are related but distinct from pathways to multiracial identification.<\/p>\n<p>To read the entire paper, click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.allacademic.com\/meta\/p21228_index.html\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One Drop, No Rule: Identity Options among Multiracial Children in the U.S. Paper presented at the annual meeting of the American Sociological Association Marriott Hotel, Loews Philadelphia Hotel Philadelphia, PA, 2005-08-12 Anthony Daniel Perez, Assistant Professor Chapel Hill Department of Sociology University of North Carolina This paper examines the links between family background characteristics and [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,125,8,14,20],"tags":[192,189,56,82],"class_list":["post-1296","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-census","category-identitydevelopment","category-media-archive","category-papers","category-usa","tag-anthony-daniel-perez","tag-anthony-perez","tag-hypodescent","tag-one-drop-rule"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1296","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1296"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1296\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1296"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1296"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mixedracestudies.org\/wp\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1296"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
