Pearson Correlations among Measures of Socioeconomic Status among Asians (N=2,046)

Family Income Education - less than HS Community SSS National SSS Tract Level Gini Coefficient Neighborhood Affluence Neighborhood Race/ethnicity Concentration Residential Instability
Household income divided by FPLa 1
Education - less than HSb −0.10*** 1
Community SSSc 0.16*** −0.23*** 1
National SSSc 0.21*** −0.26*** 0.68*** 1
Tract Level Gini Coefficient −0.17*** 0.12*** −0.08*** −0.07*** 1
Neighborhood Affluence 0.24*** −0.19*** 0.14*** 0.19*** −0.50*** 1
Neighborhood Race/Ethnicity Concentration −0.02 0.09*** −0.16*** −0.15*** 0.08*** −0.29*** 1
Residential Instability 0.00 −0.06** 0.06** 0.05* 0.31*** 0.10*** −0.12*** 1

Note:

a

Continuous household income/FPL variable

b

The point-biserial correlation coefficient is reported between the dichotomous education variable and all other variables, which are continuous. The point-biserial coefficient is a special case of the Pearson correlation coefficient.

c

SSS: Subjective Social Status
