abstract="The research measures whether &quot;race&quot; was a significant stratifying variable within a multiracial ethnic group (Puerto Ricans) in New York City. Thze 1980 5% Public Use Microdata sample, which consisted of 27, 799 men and women, was used. ANOVA and chi-square were used to analyze socioeconomic variables by racial self-classification. The results indicate that the way Puerto Ricans classified themselves was significantly related to their socioeconomic position. Puerto Ricans identifying as &quot;Other&quot; (and writing in a Spanish desciptor) laggedfar behind those identifying as &quot;VWhite. &quot; On some variables, the group identifying as &quot;Black&quot; fared about the same as the &quot;White&quot; group, while in other areas, it was similar to the &quot;Other-Spanish&quot; group. Within each &quot;race&quot; group, Puerto Rican women were found to be worse off thani men.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
