"This paper examines the assimilation of immigrants in familial and economic fields.... Specific objectives are as follows:  (1) to describe fertility and earning patterns among immigrants to the United States in 1970-1980, from several countries of origin, and (2) to describe some effects of assimilation, human capital, and the dual labor market perspectives on immigrant earnings."
