Abstract

A topological model of a mobility regime is a mapping of the cells in a two-way cross-classification of data into a number of coherent sets of cells or density levels. Such density levels identify cells in the table that are characterized by similar tendencies to association or dissociation between pairs of origin and destination categories. This article demonstrates how to automate categorical model fitting of such data within the SAS statistical package. We discuss two substantive examples: U.S. male intergenerational occupational mobility: and a new account of intergenerational class mobility in Australia, that draws on contemporary neo-Marxist theorizing about class structures in capitalist societies.
