Social Contacts dutch language proficiency and immigrant economic performance in the netherlands a longitudinal study
Social Science Research Network, 2016Co-Authors: Barry R Chiswick, Zhiling WangAbstract:Using longitudinal data on immigrants in the Netherlands for the years 1991, 1994, 1998, 2002, we examined the impacts of Social Contacts and Dutch language proficiency on adult foreign-born men's earnings, employment and occupational status. The main conclusions are as follows. On average, Social Contacts and a good mastery of the Dutch language enhance immigrants' economic performances. The effects are stronger for immigrants with low-skill-transferability than for immigrants with high-skill-transferability, and are stronger for economic migrants than for non-economic migrants. Contact with Dutch people and Dutch organisations unambiguously enhances all aspects of immigrants' economic performance, however, we found no evidence for the positive effect of co-ethnic contact on employment status.

direct Social Contacts override auditory information in the song learning process in starlings sturnus vulgaris
Journal of Comparative Psychology, 2004Co-Authors: Colline Poirier, Laurence Henry, Maryvonne Mathelier, Sophie Lumineau, Hugo Cousillas, Martine HausbergerAbstract:Social influence on song acquisition was studied in 3 groups of young European starlings raised under different Social conditions but with the same auditory experience of adult song. Attentional focusing on preferred partners appears the most likely explanation for differences found in song acquisition in relation to experience, sex, and song categories. Thus, pair-isolated birds learned from each other and not from broadcast live songs, females did not learn from the adult male tutors, and sharing occurred more between Socially associated peers. On the contrary, single-isolated birds clearly copied the adult songs that may have been the only source of attention stimulation. Therefore, Social preference appears as both a motor for song learning and a potential obstacle for acquisition from nonpreferred partners, including adults.
