Noreen Goldman
Princeton University
Visiting Scholar
2018 to 2019
Goldman and Anne Pebley will analyze longitudinal data on Latino health outcomes, focusing on how factors such as documentation status and occupational segregation affect the physical wellbeing of immigrants and native-born Latinos. They will also examine the extent to which the recession affected immigrants’ health and the extent to which the risk of deportation for undocumented individuals changed during the Obama administration.
Arden Morris
University of Michigan
Visiting Scholar
2014 to 2015
Morris will complete a series of articles on the racial and socioeconomic barriers to cancer care in the U.S., focusing on the association between psychosocial and physiologic stress among colorectal cancer patients. She will describe the impact of clinical and social factors on patient-physician relationships, receipt of care, and levels of stress among these cancer patients.
Anne R. Pebley
University of California, Los Angeles
Visiting Scholar
2018 to 2019
Pebley and Noreen Goldman will analyze longitudinal data on Latino health outcomes, focusing on how factors such as documentation status and occupational segregation affect the physical wellbeing of immigrants and native-born Latinos. They will also examine the extent to which the recession affected immigrants’ health and the extent to which the risk of deportation for undocumented individuals changed during the Obama administration. Pebley will also explore how drug-related violence in Central America shapes patterns of immigration to the U.S.
Krista M. Perreira
University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
Visiting Scholar
2008 to 2009
Krista M. Perreira, Associate Professor of Public Policy at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, will synthesize six years of research into a comprehensive book on Latino immigration to the American South. Focusing on what we can learn about “new” immigrant destinations, Perreira will assess the migration and acculturation experiences of Latino youth and their parents in the South. Perreira will also evaluate how non-Latino youth and their families are responding to the recent influx of Latino immigrants.
Jo Carol Phelan
Columbia University
Visiting Scholar
2012 to 2013
Phelan will examine the link between health and race, gender, and immigrant status. She will also explore the effects of stigma on behavior and the relevance of implicit attitudes to labels like “mentally ill” and “low education.” She will also consider what role “essentialism” plays in stigma.
Katherine Swartz
Harvard University
Visiting Scholar
2000 to 2001
Katherine Swartz, associate professor of health policy and management at the Harvard School of Public Health, will write a book examining the different reasons why people in the United States do not have health insurance. Most insurance plans offer different benefits at different prices so as to attract low-risk and discourage high-risk enrollees. This creates a pool of high-risk people who are priced out of insurance.
