Critical Perspectives on Racial and Ethnic Differences in Health in Late Life (2004, background): “In recent work, Oakes and Rossi (2003) suggest that measures of SES should reflect material capital, human capital, and social capital.”
Best Practices in Conceptualizing and Measuring Social Class in Psychological Research (2013, background): “However, these composites are based on outdated classification systems and obfuscate which SES components drive observed associations between variables (Duncan & Magnuson, 2003; Oakes & Rossi, 2003).”
The (mis)estimation of neighborhood effects: causal inference for a practicable social epidemiology. (2004, background): “Relevant variables might include individual-level SES measured by total household-income and educational achievement (see Oakes & Rossi, 2003).”
Student Eligibility for a Free Lunch as an SES Measure in Education Research (2010, methodology): “Central to these concerns is that SES itself is often poorly conceptualized by researchers, which affects the measurement of SES and the interpretation of statistical results (Haug, 1977; Hauser & Warren, 1997; Oakes & Rossi, 2003).”

An interactionist perspective on the socioeconomic context of human development. (2007, background): “SES is a construct that captures various dimensions of social position, including prestige, power, and economic well-being (Hoff et al. 2002, Liu et al. 2004, Oakes & Rossi 2003).”
Social Class, Culture, and Cognition (2011, background): “Consistent with sociological theory, education has been found to explain twice as much variance in occupational prestige as income and to be more closely related to other socioeconomic indicators (Oakes & Rossi, 2003).”
