description Information on couples married in the U.S.A. in which at least one of the spouses is of Asian descent is obtained from the 1980 U.S. Census' 5% Public Use Microdata Samples. It is used to analyze Asians' ethnic and racial exogamy. Results show that the probability of exogamy is lowest when foreignborn Asians are in their first marriages and husbands are older and more educated than their wives. Asians remarried to previously unmarried spouses are more racially exogamous than other Asians. Moreover, Asians are more likely to cross racial lines whenever they are more educated than their spouses. Results also show that foreign birth is not necessarily associated with endogamy among Asians, but its effects are mediated by the marriage history of the spouses and the type of exogamy involved. The increased diversity and cultural pluralism of family forms in the U.S.A. are seen as facilitating these exogamous patterns. Des données sur des couples mariés aux Etats-Unis dont au moins un des époux soit d'origine asiatique sont obtenues du U.S. Census' 5% Public Use Microdata Samples de 1980 et employées dans l'analyse de l'exogamie ethnique et raciale. Les résultats indiquent que la probabilité de l'endogamie est la plus forte quand des Asiatiques nés à l'étranger sont dans leurs premiers mariages et lorsque les maris sont plus agés et plus edequés que leurs femmes. Les Asiatiques qui se remarient à des époux qui ne se sont jamais mariés sont significativement plus exogames, du point de vue de la race, que les autres Asiatiques, et les possibilités, chez eux, de l'exogamie raciale augmentent quand ils sont plus éduqués que leurs époux. Le fait de naitre à l'étranger ne s'associe pas necessairement á l'endogamie chez les asiatiques, mais ses effets varient selon le passé conjugal des époux et selon le caractère de l'exogamie. Il apparaît que la diversité accentuée et la pluralité culturelle des formes familiales aux Etats-Unis facilitent ces paradigmes exogames.
