  • Watts (1992) mentions the IP index by Karmel & MacLachlan (1988). This is

IP = sum_i {| M_i - a_bar * T_i | } / T

Where

M_i

is the local count of group M,

a_bar

is the global share of group M

T_i

is the local total in area i

T

Is the total population overall.

It was introducted in the context of occupational segregation by gender

  • Waldorf (1992) mentions Jakubs (1891) and Morgan(1983)'s adaptation of the dissiminarity indiex to include a distance function

This takes on the form

DBMI = min(D_obs) / min(D_ext)

Where

min(D_obs)

is the minimum total relocation distance needed to transform the observed distirbution into the uniform distribution

And

min(D_ext)

Is the minimun total relocation distance necessary to transform the extreme of a completely segregated pattern into a uniform distribution
