Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: A recent critique leveled against past studies on the Hispanic health paradox has argued that issues related to social selection and endogeneity are too often neglected or ignored, leading to dubious results and the misinterpretation of findings. The present analysis focuses on the Mexican-Origin population and makes use of a new pooled sample of infants in both the U.S. and Mexico to overcome the problems plaguing past studies. This pooled sample will allow for the simultaneous consideration of the selection and cultural hypotheses in contributing to the health outcomes of Mexican-Origin infants. This analysis will provide new insights into the health status of the largest immigrant group in the U.S. as well as provide a greater understanding of the process of immigrant assimilation and incorporation into U.S. society.
