In "Immigrant America," the authors discuss the "New Second Generation." Which of the following statements is FALSE? Q Like their parents, the children of the "new" immigrants, are largely poor and non-English speaking. Unlike their parents, the new second generation is more likely to fully Americanize by the time they reach adulthood. Regarding their adaptation and incorporation into dominant society, the results of that final survey of the new second generation (the CILS data) show that their adjustment is related largely to their human capital (primarily level of education). Assimilation or incorporation among the new second generation can best be described as "segmented assimilation."

Following are the results of a study that used a case–control design. This study evaluated factors associated with admission to college. A total of 650 students were admitted to college (cases), and they were compared to 650 students who were not admitted to college (controls). The purpose of this study was to identify factors that are associated with the likelihood of being accepted into college.

Suppose you just read a careful statistical study of the effect of improvedhealth of children on their test scores at school. Using data from a project in aWest African district, in 2000, the study concluded that students who receivedmultivitamin supplements performed substantially better at school. Use theconcept of external validity to determine if these results are likely to apply toIndia in 2000, the United Kingdom in 2000, and West Africa in 2015.

The theory of distributive justice that I found most convincing was the process of Utilitarianism. While I do agree partially with the Libertarian theory in regard to the sense of personal choice and freedom, I find the outcome of Utilitarianism to be most feasible. The feeling of collective social involvement, and working towards a distributive process with an outcome of happiness can help gauge overall community satisfaction. Regarding economic distribution, Utilitarianism has deemed the increase of worker participation to assist collective agreement of distribution. "...many utilitarians would favorably view increased worker participation in industrial life and more equal distribution of income." (W.H. Shaw, 2017, p.91) I highly agree with this form of economic distribution. I feel as if Utilitarianism provides a structure for increased worker production that can positively influence society as a whole, while simultaneously improving the economy. Personally, I desire a structure…

Consider a simple model of marriage and wage Yit = BXit + Sit + Vit where Y is the wage, X is a dummy variable indicating the marital status, S represents "sociability," and V contains other unobserved causal factors. Assume that Vit is independent of Xis for all i, t, s. We observe a panel data of (Yit, Xit). Which of the following condition(s) are sufficient for us to obtain a consistent estimate of B? Sit is independent of Xit Sit does not vary with time t Vit does not vary with time t Sit is independent of Vit
There are two types of (college graduate) workers in financial industry: A (able) type and C (challenged) type. Potential employers in finance will pay $160,000 a year to a type A and $60,000 to a type C. Unfortunately, employers cannot observe the worker's type while each worker knows his or her own type. However, a market research informs all employers and workers that 60% of the population is type A and 40% is type C. Additionally, it is known to everyone that the worker types differ in their tolerance for taking an analytical course rather than easy ones in college. The A types regard the cost of each analytical course as equivalent to $3,000 a year of salary, while the C types regard it as $15,000 a year of salary. Alternative employment opportunities outside of the financial industry yield the A types a salary of $125,000 and the C types a salary of $30,000. Suppose an employer in this industry use this differential to screen his applicants and tell the A types from the C types.…
Suppose a hospital is planning about how many patients to treat over the next two years. One key factor the hospital needs to consider in its planning is that hospitals that see many patients in one year have lower costs of care in subsequent years. Let p be the price of hospital care, let 91 be the number of patients the hospital treats in year one, let q2 be the number of patients the hospital treats in year two, and let c₁ and c₂ be the hospital's per-patient cost in years one and two. The hospital's profits over the two year period are: II = (pic₁)91 + (p2 - c2)92 The hospital takes p1 and p2 as fixed and they choose q1 and q2 to maximize profits, II. (1) 1. Suppose, as a warm up exercise, that there is no learning by doing, and that the unit cost functions are as follows: c₁ = 21 and c2 = 92. Is the cost of caring for patients increasing or decreasing in the number of patients seen? Derive the supply function in periods one and two for the hospital. [Hint: Substitute the unit cost…
The model initial setup is• The number of vacancies posted in the economy during a particular month is v = 100.• There were initially u = 225 unemployed workers at the beginning of the month.• Suppose that the average wage is 0.6 relative to their productivity. Unemployed workersreceive benefits that are half the wage, i.e., b = 0.3 relative to productivity.• Suppose that the number of matches between firms and workers are given by thefollowing matching functionsM = Au^0.5v^0.5• Suppose that 45 workers were able to find a job by the end of the month.Answer the following questions.a) What is the monthly job finding rate?b) What is the probability that an average vacancy is filled in a month?c) What is the job creation cost, k?d) What is the value of A?e) Explain how introducing a searching cost to this model would affect the queue length,the number of vacancy and unemployment rate, and wage.
