This book introduces new methods for measuring and analyzing residential segregation. It begins by placing all popular segregation indices in the "difference of group means" framework wherein index scores can be obtained as simple differences of group means on individual-level residential attainments scored from area racial composition. Drawing on the insight that in this framework index scores are additively determined by individual residential attainments, the book shows that the level of segregation in a given city can be equated to the effect of group membership (e.g., race) on individual residential attainments. This unifies separate research traditions in the field by joining the analysis of segregation at the aggregate level with the analysis of residential attainments for individuals. Next it shows how segregation analysis can be extended by using multivariate attainment models to assess the impact of group membership (i.e., the level of segregation for a city) while including controls for other relevant individual characteristics (e.g., income, education, language, nativity, etc.). It then illustrates how one can use these models to quantitatively assess the extent to which segregation traces to impacts of group membership on residential attainments versus other factors such as group differences in income. The book then shows how micro-level attainment models can be used to study macro-level variation in segregation; specifically, by estimating multi-level models of individual residential attainments to assess how the effect of group membership (i.e., segregation index scores) vary with city characteristics. Finally, the book introduces refined versions of popular indices that are free of the vexing problem of upward bias. This improves the quality of segregation measurement directly at the level of individual cases and expanding the number of cases that can be safely included in empirical studies. .--|cProvided by publisher. 542 |fLicensed under the terms of the Creative Commons AttributionNonCommercial 2.5 International License, except where otherwise noted 590 SpringerLink|bSpringer Nature Open Access eBooks 650 0 Social sciences. 650 0 Regional planning. 650 0 City planning. 650 0 Statistics. 650 0 Regional economics. 650 0 Space in economics. 650 0 Demography. 650 7 City planning.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00862177 650 7 Demography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00890158 650 7 Regional economics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01093090 650 7 Regional planning.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01093120 650 7 Social sciences.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01122877 650 7 Space in economics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01127736 650 7 Statistics.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01132103 700 1 Fossett, Mark. 700 1 Bakker. 776 08 |iPrinted edition:|z9783319413020 830 0 Springer series on demographic methods and population analysis ;|v42.|x1389-6784 914 on1021280094 994 92|bSTJ
