Despite an increase their prevalence, implications is understudied. Hypotheses were formulated based on specialization, relative resource, role...

This study aimed to (i) examine variance in the prevalence of workplace violence and fear United Kingdom by industrial sector (ii) determine mental health effects thereof using longitudinal data. We used Household Panel Study (UKHLS), a nationally representative survey with indicators collected annually allowing us common disorders (CMD) at baseline, one year prior later.

Abstract Here we study how unemployment is related to partner relationship happiness in the United Kingdom. We investigate multiple dimensions of unemployment—current unemployment, changes duration and past unemployment—each which provides unique insights into economic uncertainty can strain relationships.

Abstract The definitions and the methodology used in surveys to measure violence have implications for its estimated volume gendered distribution. Crime Survey England Wales (CSEW) uses quite a narrow definition of ‘violence against person’ which excludes crimes are arguably violent nature.

The increase in cohabitation and nonmarital childbearing across Europe has raised questions about who still marries either before or after having a child. Although prior studies have addressed the sequence of marriage childbearing, few examined role relationship quality these transitions. Here we employ cross-national perspective to study association between and/or first birth within cohabitation. Using Generations Gender Survey UK Household Longitudinal Study, seven European countries...

This study investigates changes in hours and quality, paying attention differences by gender partnership status.

Results suggest that women's is reduced an...
The increases in cohabitation and childbearing within raise questions about who marries. Most studies have found that is associated with disadvantage; here, we examine the role of relationship happiness whether it helps to explain this association. Using UK Household Longitudinal Study (2009–17), our competing risk hazard models follow respondents as they transition: (1) from into marriage or childbearing; (2) childbearing. We find risks are highest among individuals happiest their...
This study examined media exposure as an explanatory factor for individual and cross-national differences in self-assessed general health.
