Ayuso, L. (2018). The Sociological Review, 67(1), 226-244 10.1177/0038026118799053

In recent years there has been increased interest in couples Living Apart Together (LAT) within the sociology of the family in Europe. One of the main questions concerns understanding their evolution over time. Given the lack of longitudinal data, the present study focuses as a proxy to study the perception LATs hold of their future and the influencing factors. Based …

Transition from Cohabitation to Marriage. The Role of Marital Attitudes in Seven Western and Eastern European Countries

Žilinčíková, Z. & Hiekel, N. (2018). Comparative Population Studies, 43 10.12765/CPoS-2018-04

Using longitudinal panel data from the Generations and Gender Surveys on 2,847 cohabiters from seven countries, we examine the role of marital attitudes in the transition from cohabitation to marriage and compare the strength of this association between Western and Eastern Europe. We expect a positive attitude towards marriage to increase the likelihood of cohabiters marrying. We also expect the …

The role of education in the intersection of partnership transitions and motherhood in Europe and the United States

Mikolai, J., Berrington, A., & Perelli-Harris, B. (2018). Demographic Research, 39, 753-794 10.4054/DemRes.2018.39.27

BACKGROUND Previous research has shown that partnership status at first birth is associated with education across Europe and the United States. Most research has indicated that first births within cohabitation have a negative educational gradient. However, the pathway to a first birth in different partnership types can be complex and may vary across countries. OBJECTIVE We study whether any educational …

The positive impact of women’s employment on divorce: Context, selection, or anticipation?

Vignoli, D., Matysiak, A., Styrc, M., & Tocchioni, V. (2018). Demographic Research, 38, 1059-1110 10.4054/DemRes.2018.38.37

BACKGROUND Empirical findings regarding the impact of women’s employment on divorce are mixed. One explanation is that the effects are moderated by the country context. Another is that previous studies have failed to account for unobserved factors that introduce bias into the estimated effects. Studies also rarely consider possible anticipatory employment behavior on the part of women who are thinking …

The formation of ethnically mixed partnerships in Estonia: A stalling trend from a two-sided perspective

Rahnu, L., Puur, A., Sakkeus, L., Klesment, M., & Abuladze, L. (2018). Demographic Research, 38, 1111-1154 10.4054/DemRes.2018.38.38

BACKGROUND Ethnically mixed partnerships are often regarded as the ultimate evidence of the integration of migrants and their descendants into their host society. A common finding in the literature is an increase in the occurrence of mixed partnerships across migrant generations. OBJECTIVE This study investigates the formation of minority–majority partnerships in Estonia, with special attention to the variation associated with …

The diverse nature of living apart together relationships: an Italy–France comparison

Régnier-Loilier, A. & Vignoli, D. (2018). Journal of Population Research, 35(1), 1-22 10.1007/s12546-017-9197-0

This paper contributes to the ongoing debate on the nature of living apart together (LAT) relationships by focusing on two contrasting family settings: France and Italy. First, we corroborate the view that being ‘‘single’’ in residential terms does not mean being ‘‘without a partner’’ in relationship terms. To assume otherwise would be an erroneous characterisation of more than one quarter …

Swimming Against the Stream: Non-normative Family Transitions and Loneliness in Later Life Across 12 Nations

Zoutewelle-Terovan, M. & Liefbroer, A. (2018). The Gerontologist, 58(6), 1096-1108 10.1093/geront/gnx184

Background and Objectives: Relatively little research investigated whether experiences during young adulthood have longlasting consequences for older age loneliness. This article examines whether deviations from culturally based scripts regarding family transitions represent risk factors for later-life loneliness. Moreover, it analyzes whether and in which conditions long-term associations between family transitions and loneliness differ across nations. Research Design and Methods: The …

Social Disparities in Destandardization—Changing Family Life Course Patterns in Seven European Countries

Zimmermann, O. & Konietzka, D. (2018). European Sociological Review, 34(1), 64-78 10.1093/esr/jcx083

t is generally assumed that life courses in European societies have become less orderly and more destandardized in recent decades. Focusing on the family sphere, the article examines to what degree patterns of destandardization are stratified by educational attainment across seven European countries. Using data from the Generations and Gender Survey (GGS) and the National Educational Panel Survey (NEPS) (n …

Regional context and realization of fertility intentions: Are capitals different? The examples of Austria and Hungary

Riederer, B. & Buber-Ennser, I. (2018). Demográfia, 61(5) 10.21543/dee.2018.2

Despite regional variation in fertility, within-country differences have hardly been addressed in the realm of realizing fertility intentions. We address this shortcoming by analyzing the realization of short-term fertility intentions in Austria and Hungary, comparing data from the capitals (Vienna and Budapest) to the remaining regions. Results demonstrate that realization is lower in Hungary than in Austria and lower in …

Quel est l’effet des enfants sur la stabilité des mariages et des cohabitations ? Comparaison européenne:

Žilinčíková, Z. & Richou, C. (2018). Population, Vol. 72(4), 677-699 10.3917/popu.1704.0677

Naître de parents non mariés n’a pas la même signification ni les mêmes conséquences selon le pays de naissance. Alors qu’il s’agit d’une situation très courante dans certains pays d’Europe, comme en France où c’est le cas de presque 60 % des enfants nés en 2016, elle est encore rare dans d’autres pays où le mariage reste la forme d’union …

Pathways, background and outcomes of the transition to adulthood in the early 2000s in Hungary

Murinkó, L. (2018). Demográfia, 61(5) 10.21543/dee.2018.3

In the present paper, we analyze the process of the transition to adulthood in contemporary Hungary. We identify typical pathways, describe them in terms of role transitions, as well as regarding their socio-economic and family background and various outcomes. In order to do so, we regard the transition to adulthood as a multi-dimensional and dynamic process. Using longitudinal data from …

Partnership Choice and Childbearing in Norway and Spain

Rutigliano, R. & Esping-Andersen, G. (2018). European Journal of Population, 34(3), 367-386 10.1007/s10680-017-9432-6

Abstract Cohabitation has, in a number of countries, become a genuine alternative to marriage. Where this occurs, will we see a convergence in fertility behavior between the two partnership options? We address this question by comparing two societies, Norway and Spain, that contrast sharply not only in the evolution of cohabitation, but also in overall birth rates and public support …

Parents’ Preferences for Sex of Children in Sweden: Attitudes and Outcomes

Miranda, V., Dahlberg, J., & Andersson, G. (2018). Population Research and Policy Review, 37(3), 443-459 10.1007/s11113-018-9462-8

It has been argued that preferences for the sex of children would be small or non-existing in relatively gender equal societies. However, previous studies have suggested that a stronger preference for having daughter exists in Scandinavian countries, which are frequently noted for being among the most gender equal societies in the world. Combining new register data on birth rates by …

Parental Education and Family Dissolution: A Cross‐National and Cohort Comparison

Brons, M. & Härkönen, J. (2018). Journal of Marriage and Family, 80(2), 426-443 10.1111/jomf.12461

This is the first study to systematically analyze whether the association between parental education and family dissolution varies cross‐nationally and over time. The authors use meta‐analytic tools to study cross‐national variation between 17 countries with data from the Generations and Gender Study and Harmonized Histories. The association shows considerable cross‐national variation, but is positive in most countries. The association between …

Non-kin ties as a source of support amongst older adults ‘left behind’ in Poland: a quantitative study on the role of geographic distance

Conkova, N. & King, R. (2018). Ageing and Society, 39(06), 1255-1280 10.1017/s0144686x17001507

ABSTRACT In the transition to democracy and a market economy, the Central and Eastern European countries experienced rapid and fundamental changes. Large-scale emigration flows and pronounced reductions in previously universal welfare systems increased the phenomenon of ‘left behind’ older adults. We examine this phenomenon in the case of Poland, a rather family-oriented society which in recent years sent most emigrants …
