The Social Preference for Fair Housing: During the Civil Rights Movement and Since
运用社会偏好理论解释民权运动期间及之后关于公平住房的民意调查结果，通过白人对黑人融入性居住迁移的态度数据，预测何时90%的关键群体将支持此类迁移。
This paper applies the theory of social preference to interpret the results of opinion polls that included questions on the equality of access to housing, otherwise known as fair housing. Using social preference theory, a set that is decisive on the issue of fair housing for the years of the civil rights movement -designated as 1954 through 1968-and for the years since then is defined. Results of opinion polls with responses from whites to pro-integrative residential moves by blacks are used to estimate simple linear regression equations. These equations are, in turn, used to project the date when 90 percent of the set that is decisive on fair housing would favor these pro-integrative moves.
