Abstract:
|
Exogamy has long been used as a measure for determining the level of acceptability between ethnic and racial groups. This study will focus on exogamy between Puerto Ricans in Puerto Rico and the largest national groups on the Island, specifically, Americans, Europeans, Cubans, Dominicans, Other Latin Americans, and Others. The data for Puerto Rico the analysis comes from the 1990 5 percent Public Use Micro Data Sample. A multinominal logistic regression was conducted to determine the odds a Puerto Rican will have to form or will form an exogamous relationship with either a European American, an African American, other racial non-Hispanic groups, Mexicans, Cubans, Dominicans, other Hispanics, and those with a generic Hispanic or Latino identity. Intermarriage that occurs in the island of Puerto Rico, the likelihood of exogamy is closely linked to the person’s birthplace and to the parent’s birthplace. Puerto Ricans are therefore much more likely to marry or cohabitate with another Puerto Rican born on the island versus all other possible group combination. In some cases particularly with Cubans, and Dominicans being a Puerto Rican born outside of Puerto Rico increases the likelihood of exogamy considerably. |
