The Way

How we measure social position is vital to our ability to account for different aspects – imagined or real – of the stratification order. This research note surveys applied research and quantifies differences in the way researchers study stratification. It analyses all research articles published from 2015-2019 in the five most-cited sociological journals and ISA RC28's official publication. We focus on empirical articles with a substantive focus on occupation-based stratification. Empirically, we observe a dominance of income as a measure for social position. Social class is a close second trailed by status, prestige, and desegregated occupational measures. Among social class measures, researchers prefer EGP-like schemas and apply them as a paradigmatic "one-size-fits-all" measure in diverse fields of application.

Corporate Headquarters

In this research note, the author examines the regional distribution and suburbanization of corporate headquarters in the United States in 1969, 1979, and 1989. The results confirm a continued concentration of headquarters in a small number of metropolitan areas and a continued concentration in the Northeast and Midwest, despite some growth in locations in the South and West. Significant variations are seen by type of corporation. The suburbanization of headquarters during the decade is qualified in two ways: First, despite further suburbanization, central cities still house a sizable majority of headquarters; and second, the suburbanization pattern varies significantly by region.

Relationships between social class perceptions and major retail center patronage decisions are analyzed in this article. The analysis is a departure from traditional trading area delineation studies which rely primarily on the income variable and consumer cost considerations.
