• Serial Cohabitation and the Marital Life Course (2008, unknown): “Evidence of racial and ethnic variation in cohabitation is modest, but differences in the stability of cohabiting and married unions are large, especially between Blacks and Whites (Bulanda & Brown, 2007; Sweeney & Phillips, 2004).”
• Capturing the Complexity of Intergenerational Relations: Exploring Ambivalence within Later-Life Families (2007, background): “Our analyses, however, suggest that this pattern reflects the greater levels of children’s difficulty (Green, Ensminger, Robertson, & Jron, 2006; Martin, Tuch, & Roman, 2003; Sweeney & Phillips, 2004; Wilson & McBrier, 2005).”
• 7. Multivariate Decomposition for Hazard Rate Models (2009, background): “Many applications ignore the sampling variability of the decomposition components (e.g., see Borooah and Iyer 2005; Sweeney and Phillips 2004; Van Hook, Brown, and Kwenda 2004).”
• Race-ethnic differences in marital quality and divorce (2007, background): “Blacks experience a greater likelihood of divorce than Whites or Hispanics (Bean and Tienda, 1987; Oropesa et al., 1994; Sweeney and Phillips, 2004), which may be attributable to Blacks' lower levels of marital quality.”

• Partnership Instability and Child Well-Being (2007, background): “Although foreign-born Hispanics have more stable relationships than native-born Hispanics (Osborne et al., in press; Sweeney & Phillips, 2004), we did not find that the effect of instability differed by nativity status.”
