This article reports the results of a content analysis of recently published papers on the relationship(s) between socioeconomic status and health. This study explores how scholars conceptualize and measure socioeconomic status and health. Consequently, this research investigates if significant differences in measurement exist both across subfields within sociology and across disciplines. The evidence presented reveals a remarkable variation in measurement strategies. Moreover, this variation exhibits a pattern that is not entirely predictable. This article concludes by presenting in detail some of the most widely used health indicators and proposing that current measurement practice may be improved by utilizing some more advanced scaling strategies.

This article presents a socioeconomic picture of immigrants in Wisconsin, including their position in the American society, as well as changes which have occurred among the foreign-born population after 1990. The ethno-racial structure, income, education, language fluency, as well as economic and political participation are discussed. The quantitative data used in the analysis has been derived from American surveys: the American Community Survey, the historical Decennial Censuses of Population and Housing, and Surveys of Business Owners, and complemented with methodological comments and data from analytical reports of American nonprofit organizations.
