Die vorliegende Studie befasst sich mit den Anteilen von Eineltern- und Stieffamilien sowie haushaltsübergreifenden Familienstrukturen in verschiedenen europäischen Ländern. Die Frage, wie viele Eineltern- und Stieffamilien es in den verschiedenen Ländern Europas tatsächlich gibt, konnte bislang nicht zufriedenstellend beantwortet werden. Für viele Länder existieren lediglich Schätzungen unter Rückgriff auf Scheidungsraten. Analysen auf Basis der Surveys des ‚Generations and Gender Programme‘ …

We examined how people’s educational attainment was related to their behaviours on the repartnering market in the Russian Federation and Estonia. We addressed the following questions: 1) What is the effect of education on repartnering?; 2) What is the effect of own education on whom people repartner with (i.e., the new partner’s educational attainment)? and 3) Does the educational level …

This chapter aims to provide an insight into fertility decision making, concentrating in particular on links between fertility intentions and actual behaviour. Both the discussion of theoretical approaches and the empirical analysis enable us to gain a more accurate insight into the intention–behaviour link. After surveying the relevant literature, the chapter gives a broad overview of different kinds of factors …

Using data from the first two waves of the French Generations and Gender Survey (GGS), conducted in 2005 and 2008 with the same respondents, this chapter looks at changes in how household tasks are divided between partners and examines how the partners’ levels of satisfaction evolve after the birth of the first child. While there were few changes in household …

Introduced in France in 1999 for both same-sex and different-sex couples, the civil partnership known as the pacte civil de solidarité or PACS, has seen a huge quantitative increase since 2001. This chapter compares types of union and attachment to gender roles. We differentiate four types of union linked to different kinds of institutionalization: direct or quasi-direct marriage, standard marriage, …

Based in our data, in France, 80 % of people aged 18–79 report being Catholic (currently or by birth), 5 % Muslim, 2 % Protestant, 2 % a different religion and 11 % say they have no religion. But this distribution varies considerably by age: the youngest cohorts less often report a religious affiliation, and when they do, they attend …

While contemporary sociological and demographic studies seem to confirm the idea that the transition to adulthood is occurring at an increasingly older age in France, they have not yet clearly determined what exactly is involved in this “passage” from youth to adulthood. Study of schooling and educational trajectories, family and occupational paths, and analysis of the interactions between them in …

Increasing union instability and the diversification of conjugal trajectories have opened up a new research area in family studies: the breakup of second unions. There are two levels of questioning here. At the level of unions, are second relationships more fragile than first ones? At the individual level, are the determinants of separation the same for first and second unions? …

This chapter looks at the division of parental tasks by focusing on the gender relations at play both in the parents’ generation, as they tie in with other social relations approached through demographic and socioeconomic characteristics (age differences between partners, educational level, occupation, income, work time, etc.), and between parents and children. The aim is to verify whether, in addition …

The quality of survey data depends on the way information is collected. Interviewers are instructed to ensure that the interviews take place in private without anyone else present. However, they cannot impose the interview conditions, and in many cases one or more other persons are present during all or part of the interview. This chapter compares women’s and men’s responses …

This chapter studies how housework and parenting tasks are shared by couples with children. In over half of observed cases, women take on most of these tasks, with or without outside assistance. But other less frequently observed arrangements exist, characterized by a more balanced division of tasks between partners and greater involvement of the man, who in some cases takes …

Union breakdown has become a more frequent event. It is a profound upheaval that involves a reorganization of life in both the domestic and occupational spheres. Separation may also challenge people’s expectations and ideals about living in a union. The aim of this chapter is to see whether the division of housework differs between the first and subsequent union. To …

The diffusion of contraception and the legalization of abortion have made birth control a much simpler matter: people can now choose the timing of their entry into parenthood. This study first focuses on the context in which intentions to have a first child are expressed in France: in addition to the question of age, certain conjugal and occupational situations seem …

This introductory chapter outlines the main ambitions of the Generations and Gender Programme (GGP) upon which the studies published in this book are based, and gives a brief presentation of each one. In the early 2000s, the Population Activities Unit of the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE) launched a programme of comparative studies in around 20 countries to …

This paper regards the phenomenon of eventual childlessness, which remains acutely underexplored in Russia. The prevalence of childlessness in Russia is estimated on the basis of the 2002 and 2010 National Census data. The third wave of the Russian Generation and Gender Survey (GGS-Russia, 2011) and the second wave of the Moscow and its Citizens Survey (MaCS, 2013) form the …

CONTEXT—Long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) methods—IUDs and implants—are more effective than other reversible methods, yet are little used in the United States. Examining which U.S. women use LARC methods and how they differ from users in other low-fertility countries may help point the way toward increasing use. METHODS—Data from married or cohabiting women participating in the National Survey of Family Growth …
