ABSTRACT

           Statements about building walls, deportation and denying services to undocumented immigrants made by the US president may induce fear in Latino populations and create barriers to their health care access. To assess the impact of these statements on undocumented Latino immigrants’ (UDLI) and Latino legal residents/citizens’ (LLRC) perceptions of safety and their presentations for emergency care, we conducted surveys of adult patients at three county emergency departments (EDs) in California from June 2017 to December 2018. Of 1,684 patients approached, 1,337 (79.4%) agreed to participate: 34.3% UDLI, 36.9% LLRC, and 29.8% non-Latino legal residents/citizens (NLRC). The vast majority of UDLI (95%), LLRC (94%), and NLRC (85%) had heard statements about immigrants by President Trump. Most UDLI (89%), LLRC (88%), and NLRC (87%) either thought that these measures were being enacted now or will be enacted in the future. Most UDLI and LLRC reported that these statements ...

In 2017, the canton of Geneva implemented Operation Papyrus, an innovative policy to regularize undocumented migrants. The Parchemins study was initiated in this context in order to measure the consequences of access to a residence permit on health, well-being and living conditions. Adopting an approach combining social determinants of health and life course, this interdisciplinary study collects quantitative and qualitative longitudinal data by following a cohort of people over several years. The study describes the characteristics and motivations of undocumented economic migrants living and working in the canton of Geneva, their family and social situation, their housing and employment conditions, as well as their health status. These results fill a gap in the empirical data for this population in Switzerland and Europe. Due to anonymisation issues, only quantitative data for all four waves are available. The published datasets are reduced datasets due to anonymization. Additional information can be obtained upon request by email to the PIs: Prof. Claudine Burton-Jeangros and Prof. Yves-Laurent Jackson. Im Jahr 2017 führte der Kanton Genf die Operation Papyrus durch, eine befristete Massnahme zur Regularisierung von MigrantInnen ohne Papiere. In diesem Zusammenhang wurde die Parchemins-Studie initiiert, um die Auswirkungen einer Aufenthaltserlaubnis auf Gesundheit, Wohlbefinden und Lebensbedingungen zu messen. Diese interdisziplinäre Studie folgt einen Ansatz, der soziale Einflüsse mit Gesundheit und Lebensverlauf kombiniert, und erhebt quantitative und qualitative Längsschnittdaten, indem sie eine Kohorte von TeilnehmerInnen über mehrere Jahre begleitet. Die Studie beschreibt die Charakteristika und Motivationen von undokumentierten Wirtschaftsmigranten, die im Kanton Genf leben und arbeiten, ihre familiäre und soziale Situation, ihre Wohn- und Arbeitsbedingungen sowie ihren Gesundheitszustand. Diese Resultate schliessen eine Lücke in den empirischen Daten dieser Bevölkerungsgruppe in der Schweiz und in Europa. Auf Grund von Anonymität sind nur quantitative Daten für 4 Wellen verfügbar. Die veröffentlichten Datensätze sind reduziert um anonymität zu gewährleisten.

L’étude Parchemins a été initiée dans ce contexte en vue de mesurer les conséquences de l’accès à un permis de séjour sur la santé, le bien-être et les conditions de vie. Adoptant une approche combinant déterminants sociaux de la santé et parcours de vie, cette étude interdisciplinaire récolte des données quantitatives et qualitatives longitudinales en suivant une cohorte de personnes sur plusieurs années. L'étude permet de décrire les caractéristiques et motivations des migrant·es économiques sans papiers vivant et travaillant dans le canton de Genève, leur situation familiale et sociale, leurs conditions de logement et d’emploi, ainsi que leur état de santé. Ces résultats viennent combler une lacune, car les données empiriques restent très lacunaires pour cette population, en Suisse comme en Europe. Pour assurer l'anonymat des répondantes et répondants, seules les données quantitatives sont disponibles pour les quatre vagues. Aussi, plusieurs variables ont été supprimées des fichiers de données partagés pour assurer l'anonymat.

Abstract (en): The China Multi-Generational Panel Dataset - Liaoning (CMGPD-LN) is drawn from the population registers compiled by the Imperial Household Agency (neiwufu) in Shengjing, currently the northeast Chinese province of Liaoning, between 1749 and 1909. It provides 1.5 million triennial observations of more than 260,000 residents from 698 communities. The population mainly consists of immigrants from North China who settled in rural Liaoning during the early eighteenth century, and their descendants. The data provide socioeconomic, demographic, and other characteristics for individuals, households, and communities, and record demographic outcomes such as marriage, fertility, and mortality. The data also record specific disabilities for a subset of adult males. Additionally, the collection includes monthly and annual grain price data, custom records for the city of Yingkou, as well as information regarding natural disasters, such as floods, droughts, and earthquakes. This dataset is unique among publicly available population databases because of its time span, volume, detail, and completeness of recording, and because it provides longitudinal data not just on individuals, but on their households, descent groups, and communities. Possible applications of the dataset include the study of relationships between demographic behavior, family organization, and socioeconomic status across the life course and across generations, the influence of region and community on demographic outcomes, and development and assessment of quantitative methods for the analysis of complex longitudinal datasets. ICPSR data undergo a confidentiality review and are altered when necessary to limit the risk of disclosure. ICPSR also routinely creates ready-to-go data files along with setups in the major statistical software formats as well as standard codebooks to accompany the data. In addition to these procedures, ICPSR performed the following processing steps for this data collection: Created variable labels and/or value labels.; Standardized missing values.; Created online analysis version with question text.; Checked for undocumented or out-of-range codes.. Smallest Geographic Unit: Chinese banners (8) The data are from 725 surviving triennial registers from 29 distinct populations. Each of the 29 register series corresponded to a specific rural population concentrated in a small number of neighboring villages. These populations were affiliated with the Eight Banner civil and military administration that the Qing state used to govern northeast China as well as some other parts of the country. 16 of the 29 populations are regular bannermen. In these populations adult males had generous allocations of land from the state, and in return paid an annual fixed tax to the Imperial Household Agency, and provided to the Imperial Household Agency such home products as homespun fabric and preserved meat, and/or such forest products as mushrooms. In addition, as regular bannermen they were liable for military service as artisans and soldiers which, while in theory an obligation, was actually an important source of personal revenue and therefore a political privilege. 8 of the 29 populations are special duty banner populations. As in the regular banner population, the adult males in the special duty banner populations also enjoyed state allocated land free of rent. These adult males were also assigned to provide special services, including collecting honey, raising bees, fishing, picking cotton, and tanning and dyeing. The remaining populations were a diverse mixture of estate banner and servile populations. The populations covered by the registers, like much of the population of rural Liaoning in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, were mostly descendants of Han Chinese settlers who came from Shandong and other nearby provinces in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries in response to an effort by the Chinese state to repopulate the region. 2016-09-06 2016-09-06 The Training Guide has been updated to version 3.60.
