First evidence shows that lockdown and confinement measures were associated with a more egalitarian gender division of housework in the United Kingdom. However, we know little about how adjusted different phases p

Abstract State- and private-led search-and-rescue are hypothesized to foster irregular migration (and thereby migrant fatalities) by altering the decision calculus associated with journey. We here investigate this ‘pull factor’ claim focusing on Central Mediterranean route, most frequented deadly route towards Europe during past decade. Based three intervention periods—(1) state-led Mare Nostrum , (2) search-and-rescue, (3) coordinated pushbacks Libyan Coast Guard—which correspond...

How individuals' residential moves translate into overall emergent segregation patterns remains a key challenge in neighbourhood ethnic research. In this paper, we use agent-based modelling to explore concern, focusing on the interactive role of and socio-economic homophilic preferences socioeconomic housing constraints as determinants choice. Specifically, extend classic Schelling model random utility discrete choice approach simulate relocation decisions people. We different weights for...

Objective: This study estimates how much of the differences by socioeconomic status (SES) in children’s language development are mediated parenting styles, practices, and parental investments. Background: There large (SES). According to some studies, SES gaps skills among preschoolers could be reduced substantially intervening investments low-SES parents. However, extent which mediates effects on growing up contexts is still unknown. Method: paper uses data from National Educational Panel...

Research claims that family instability experienced during childhood negatively affects children's well-being. However, a life-course reading of the hypothesis reveals crucial interlinkages between life and other domains course. Time-dependent confounders affected by past episodes affecting future stability might explain away part hypothesized negative impact. Data from Future Families Child Wellbeing Study is used to reexamine this association. I employ doubly robust marginal structural...

Previous studies have shown that children who grow up in marriage-based twoparent families fare better terms of their well-being than do not. Other researchers instead argued these negative effects are confounded by the children’s parents characteristics affecting selection into specific family structure trajectories, which likewise affect well-being. However, been unable to account for complex and dynamic relation between socioeconomic conditions individuals trajectories formation...

According to certain political discourses, state-led and private-led search-and-rescue is an explanatory factor of the observed increase during period 2013-2016 in inflow migrants along Central Mediterranean route towards Europe, which would imply constitutes a 'pull factor' migration. However, throughout these years, various changes laws, policies practices operations took place resulting three distinct periods: The MARE NOSTRUM period, search-and-rescue, coordinated pushbacks made by...
