110 WEDNESDAY 20 JULY2.43.4 Comparing Administrave Data to the 2010 U.S. CensusL. Marshall 11 U.S. Census Bureau, United StatesThe U.S. Census Bureau has acquired and evaluated administrave records data since 1999. Previous studieshave compared administrave records data to the U.S. Census – reviewing populaon counts and distribuonsof demographic characteriscs. This paper discusses plans for the U.S. Census Bureau’s ”2010 Census MatchStudy” which intends to fully analyze the coverage of administrave records data compared to the 2010 U.S.Census. Topics to be discussed include acquision plans for new administrave records data, development ofimproved record linkage procedures, and plans to use the match results to compare the individuals and theaddresses in each database. While populaon counts, housing counts, and even demographic distribuonsmay be similar between administrave records data and the 2010 U.S. Census, the specific individuals andaddresses may differ. This paper discusses plans to evaluate those differences...2.44 Internet panels for the general populaon: Fact or ficon IITo be held on July 20, 2011 from: 16:00 to 17:30, in room 412.Coordinated by:• Edith De Leeuw - University of Utrecht, Netherlands• Annee Scherpenzeel - CentERdata, Netherlands2.44.1 Why do Internet panel members become inacve and how can they be re-acvated?A. Scherpenzeel 11 CentERdata, NetherlandsThe LISS panel (Longitudinal Internet Studies for the Social sciences) is an online panel which is based on a trueprobability sample of households. Households that cannot otherwise parcipate are provided with a computerand Internet connecon.2.44.2 Can Tailor-made Quesons Movate Respondents in an Internet Panel?M. Oudejans 11 CentERdata, NetherlandsAlmost no literature exists on the effects of the topic of the quesonnaires on panel parcipaon. In this paperI will explore how the addion of ”tailor-made quesons” at the end of exisng quesonnaires will affect theevaluaon of the quesonnaire. The experiment will be embedded in the Dutch CentERdata LISS panel; a panelof 5.000 households that complete surveys every month.2.44.3 Answer behavior in a probability based internet panelC.

Wijnant 11 CentERdata Tilburg University , Netherlands; 2 CentERdata, NetherlandsIn 2007 CentERdata (Tilburg University, the Netherlands) started the MESS project by seng up the LISS panel.The LISS panel is a probability based internet panel representave of the Dutch populaon, consisng of 5,000households. On a monthly basis, the panel members fill out quesonnaires for about 30 minutes.2.44.4 Design and Implementaon of an Online Weekly <strong>Survey</strong> to Study Unintended Pregnancies: PreliminaryResultsJ.

WEDNESDAY 20 JULY 1111 University of Michigan, United States; 2 Instute for Social <strong>Research</strong>, University of Michigan, United StatesWe are conducng new research to invesgate unintended pregnancies during the transion to adulthood.Invesgaon of these issues requires detailed, ming-specific measures of atudinal and behavioral aspectsof relaonships (including sexual behavior), contracepve use, acvies that compete with childbearing (includingschool and work), and community context. Our invesgaon also requires detailed, ming-specificmeasures of beliefs, expectaons, and willingness to engage in behaviors related to unintended pregnancy,such as sexual relaonships, contracepon, pregnancy, and parenthood. Available data resources for studyingunintended pregnancy suffer from fundamental weaknesses including retrospecve reporng error.2.45 Analysis of Immigraon in Europe IIITo be held on July 20, 2011 from: 16:00 to 17:30, in room 315.1.Coordinated by: Mariya Aleksynska - CEPII, France2.45.1 Does ethnic diversity make your work beer? A longitudinal approach. (with Simonea Longhi)L. Fumagalli 11 University of Essex, United KingdomEmpirical and theorecal studies find a relaonship between ethnic diversity and indicators of performancesuch as producvity and growth. Moreover, research suggests that diversity facilitates problem solving andincreases creavity, but erodes trust and discourages the provision of public goods. However, these findingsare generally based on cross seconal data or on very imprecise measures of cultural diversity, which makes itdifficult to isolate causality.2.45.2 Educaonal inequalies across ethnic minories at the end of compulsory educaonM. Fernández-Reino 11 Universitat Pompeu Fabra, SpainIn my paper I try to disentangle the mechanisms that lie behind the differences in educaonal performanceat the end of compulsory educaon among ethnic minories in England. For this purpose, I use the first threewaves of the Longitudinal Study of Young People in England. Using binary logisc regressions, I invesgatethe variaons in achievement of 5 A*-C GCSE (including English and Maths) in the final examinaons, whichusually determines entering in the more academic track. As some studies have previously shown, there areconsiderable differences in achievement across ethnic groups in comparison to the White-Brish. While Indiansare on average outperforming autochthonous students, a higher proporon of Pakistani, Bangladeshi andBlack-Caribbean students are failing compared to White-Brish...2.45.3 Ethnic Identy and Labor Market Integraon: Evidence from DenmarkC. Gorinas 11 Århus University - The Danish Naonal Centre for Social <strong>Research</strong>, DenmarkEthnic identy – the degree of commitment of immigrants towards the country of origin and the host country– together with the economic integraon of minories are now central in the public debate. This paperexplores both identy formaon and the link between identy and employment for ethnic groups, exploingsurvey data from Denmark. Based on the two-dimensional acculturaon framework of Berry (1997), identyis modeled through both direct and composite measures successively following the methodologies of Nekbyand Rödin (2007), Bau and Zenou (2010) and Constant and Zimmermann (2008). First, I find that idenficaonwith the majority is posively associated with post-migraon characteriscs such as the pracce ofDanish at home and educaon gained in Denmark, and to some extent it is influenced by ethnic and religiousbackgrounds...
