Residential Segregation and Ethnic Identification among Hispanics in Texas.

Hwang, Sean-Shong; Murdock, Steve H.

Urban Affairs Quarterly, v23 n3 p329-45 Mar 1988

The hypothesis that minorities that are segregated from the majority group in a mixed society are less likely to be assimilated than those who are integrated is assessed. Data from 139 Texan cities with large Hispanic populations are used. The results suggest that factors other than segregation determine ethnic identification. (Author/VM)
