Abstract

This study examines significant improvements in the changing socioeconomic status of Chinese males in America during the 1960s. The variables of education, occupation and income are reviewed in their relationship to the changes from unskilled labor to professional-technical employment. The need for further research on the income lag between the Chinese and white male population is demonstrated.
