Vignoli, D., Rinesi, F., & Mussino, E. (2013). Population, Space and Place, 19(1), 60-71 10.1002/psp.1716

This study aimed at filling this gap. Are Italians who are better off in terms of housing security more likely to plan to have a first child in the short run? Our results suggest …

The German Generations and Gender Survey: some critical reflections on the validity of fertility histories

The intermediate effect of geographic proximity on intergenerational support: A comparison of France and Bulgaria

BACKGROUND The geographic proximity of parents and adult children is a key element of intergenerational solidarity. Many studies have identified geographical distance as an important determinant of intergenerational support: living nearby increases the amount of mutual support provided. It can, however, also be regarded as a dimension of intergenerational solidarity: the current degree of proximity is the result of past …

Moor, N. & Komter, A. (2012). European Journal of Ageing, 9(2), 155-167 10.1007/s10433-011-0207-3

Abstract Demographic trends across Europe involve a decrease in fertility and mortality rates, and an increase in divorce and stepfamily formation. Life courses and living arrangements have become less standardized and the structure of families has changed. In this article, we examine to what extent contemporary family structure and composition resulting from demographic changes affect emotional exchange between children and …

Men and women’s family paths differ in several points. Notably, repartnering after union dissolution, a primary component of union trajectories, varies markedly according to sex. What differences do we observe between men and women in living with a new partner, and especially how is it related to the presence of children? This article, based on the French Generation and Gender …

There is a growing literature considering the relationship between parental divorce and children’s life-course patterns.
