Mode effects on socially desirable responding in web surveys compared to face-to-face and telephone surveys

Berzelak, N. & Vehovar, V. (2024). Advances in Methodology and Statistics, 15(2), 21-43 10.51936/lrkv4884

However, this association may vary when different features of gender equality in the family, such as the division of housework and childcare, are analyzed. Furthermore, it has been argued that individuals may have different perceptions regarding housework and childcare, which can further explain …

Fostik, A., Fernández Soto, M., Ruiz-Vallejo, F., & Ciganda, D. (2023). European Journal of Population, 39(1), 25 10.1007/s10680-023-09668-1

Abstract In this article, we analyse the relationship between union instability and cumulated fertility among ever-partnered women in several regions across Europe and the Americas with different patterns of demographic behaviour in terms of fertility levels, union instability and fertility across partnerships. We hypothesise that the relationship between union dissolution and fertility might be less negative in contexts where repartnering …

The Link Between Sexual Disagreements and Separation Proneness: Differences Between Men and Women in a Culturally Diverse Sample

Perdoch Sladká, D. & Kreidl, M. (2023). The Journal of Sex Research, 1-9 10.1080/00224499.2023.2270508

Traditional gender ideologies suggest that sexual disagreements are associated with union instability more strongly among men than among women. Previous studies of this topic were based on one panel survey initiated in the United States in the late 1980s and they provided contradictory results. We revisited this issue using the Generations and Gender Survey, a more recent panel that interviewed …

Abstract The absence of a suitable partner is the most frequently given reason for unmet fertility intentions across European countries while having a partner is positively associated with the intention to have a child.

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 and childbearing, few have examined the role of relationship quality in these transitions. Here we employ a crossnational perspective to study the association between relationship quality and marriage …
