Stability of interracial and intraracial romantic relationships among adolescents
Article Abstract:
Cox Regression Models and Multiple Imputation techniques are used to examine the effect of interracial dating on relationship stability among white, African American, Hispanic, Asian and Native American adolescents. The results have shown that adolescents involved in interracial romance are less likely to reveal their relationships to their families, to the public and less likely to meet their partner's parents, suggesting that the interracial relationships are less likely than intraracial relationships to be supported by significant others.

How many interracial marriages would there be if all groups were of equal size in all places? A new look at national estimates of interracial marriage
Article Abstract:
The number of interracial marriages that would take place if all the groups were of equal size in all places is determined in order to give a new look to the national estimates of interracial marriage. Results indicate that when the racial composition is controlled at the local levels, then the gap between homogamy and heterogamy reduces considerably.
