We address the issue of men's lagged adaptation to ongoing revolution women's roles. This article proposes a multiple equilibrium approach and shows how modes couple specialization cluster around qualitatively distinct logics. identify traditional, egalitarian, 'unstable' equilibrium. Theory posits that stable equilibria rest on strong normative abidance, yield more equitable outcomes. In contrast, unstable are likely exhibit inequitable behaviour. The latter, we believe, transitional...

We use the British Cohort Study 1970 to show that proportion of children achieving a tertiary education degree is 8 percentage points lower for offspring separated parents than from intact families. Moreover, highly educated experience two times larger 'separation penalty' less parents. find similar pattern heterogeneity in effects likelihood participation academic (A-Levels) beyond school leaving age but not grades at 16. test three different explanations parental separation penalty:...

We examine whether the presence of non-intact families in society is related to increased inequality educational attainment according social background, as suggested by ‘diverging destinies’ thesis. analyze four countries, Germany, Italy, United Kingdom, and States, that differ prevalence strength negative association between growing up a family children's attainment. use Blinder-Oaxaca decomposition approach calculate ‘counterfactual’ estimate differences socioeconomically advantaged...

Despite widespread attention paid to the negative correlation between female education and divorce, we lack an explanation for it. In this study use social exchange theory assess two broad groups of explanations. According ‘marital attraction’

In recent years, researchers have become increasingly interested in how the effects of parental separation on children's educational attainment vary with social background. On one hand, parents more resources might be better able to prevent possible adverse events like affect their outcomes. other children from higher backgrounds lose a separation. A wide range empirical studies issue come inconsistent conclusions, support found for both perspectives. The aim this paper is monitor influence...

Objective: The aim of this article is to document how childhood family structure related the accumulation wealth. Background: Childhood a commonly studied determinant child and adult outcomes, but little known about its effects on wealth accumulation. Wealth affected by wide variety factors, including human capital formation, dynamics, intergenerational transfers. Studying therewith sheds light relates advantages across life. Method: Data from 1979 National Longitudinal Survey Youth ( N =...

Abstract Objective To document how changes in household wealth following the dissolution of marriage and cohabitation differ by gender Germany. Background Marital property regimes usually prescribe that both partners receive a share couple's divorce. The cohabiting unions is not governed marital most countries, including Because men, on average, legally own larger couple than women, differences might be more pronounced as compared to marriage. Method analysis consists individual fixed...

Narratives of demographic shifts overlook how societal changes shape the family trajectories sexual minorities. Using sequence analysis, we describe partnering and parenthood evolve over life course lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) women men in United Kingdom (N = 455) types these changed across two birth cohorts (born before 1965 1965-1979). We find five distinct between ages 18 40, wherein thirds sample belonged to a trajectory that did not involve living with children. Partnership-centered...

Abstract Previous research has documented that sexual orientation relates to educational attainment, and it might do so differently for men women. In this paper, we investigate what extent moderates the relationship between social origin attainment whether premium among LGB people be concentrated individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. We propose, elaborate, provide a theoretical underpinning ‘Queer Habitus’ hypothesis which states having an identity can lead weaker...

On the one hand, authors quantify importance economic social resources explaining such differences. other they document role played by experiences discrimination. use two different datasets achieve these goals. First, nonprobabilistic data from Williams Institute, which surveyed a large number transgender people. compare individuals’ with that cisgender...

This study aims to explore young adults first-episode regarding psychoeducation, goal developing tailored (PE) that can be delivered by nurses. Methods: qualitative...

Despite the intuitive notion that educational homogamy matters for distribution of economic resources across households, existing research finds changes in have had little impact on inequality between households. In this article, we document whether conclusion generalizes to 21 countries and aim understand reasons why. We use data from Luxembourg Income Studies simulate both observed hypothetical inequality. If remained stable over time, estimated difference simulated would been below 1 per...

The aim of this article is to document and understand how trends in educational variability the gender gap education developed jointly over time. Main questions include: Is distribution among women becoming more dispersed as their average attainment surpasses that men? higher than Does reduction–and eventual reversal–of go hand-in-hand with less overall? To answer these we first show overall can be decomposed into four clearly interpretable components (variability men, advantage favoring...

Abstract Recent research has shown that differences in the distribution of real estate wealth across households are most important explanation for cross-national variation inequality. We extend this line by looking at change over time and quantifying importance two opposing trends related to housing inequality: declining homeownership rates increases multiple property ownership. Our analysis is based on data from Spanish survey Encuesta Financiera de Familias covering period 2002–2017. show...

In this study, information on small to modest lottery wins from the British Household Panel Survey ( N = 2,563) was used investigate effect of income separation. The analysis demonstrated that money matters within relationships. Lottery temporarily reduced odds separation after men won. Men spent more leisure and became satisfied with their time social lives winning. Nevertheless, most union stability not mediated by changes in satisfaction; instead, a direct threshold leave relationships...
