• Paradox lost: Explaining the hispanic adult mortality advantage (2004, background): “Two other studies based on the NLMS, but not exclusively focused on the Hispanic population, reported similar results (Singh and Siahpush 2001, 2002).”
• Immigrant Acculturation, Gender and Health Behavior: A Research Note (2005, methodology): “Our results support previous research that immigrant adults in general display far more healthy behavior than U.S.-born adults (Baluja, Park and Myers 2003; Singh and Siahpush 2002).”
• Do healthy behaviors decline with greater acculturation? Implications for the Latino mortality paradox. (2005, background): “Some studies find that Latinos are more likely than non-Latino whites to be overweight (Singh & Siahpush, 2002), but in studies that stratify by sex, the difference occurs only among women (Shea et al., 1991; Winkleby, Fortmann, & Rockhill, 1993).”
