Gender role attitudes and father practices as predictors of nonresident father-child contact

Heers, M. & Szalma, I. (2022). PLOS ONE, 17(4), e0266801 10.1371/journal.pone.0266801

Due to an increasing number of parental union dissolutions, a growing number of fathers does not cohabit with their biological children. This article analyses individual and societal gender role attitudes as well as societal father practices as determinants of nonresident father-child contact. Previous research shows that individual-level factors influence the relationship between nonresident fathers and their children. Research on resident …

Fertility transition from traditional to modern model in Moldova: exploration in base on the “generation and gender survey”

Grigoraş, E. & Gagauz, O. (2022). Economy and Sociology(1), 100–114 10.36004/nier.es.2022.1-09

In Moldova, like in other countries of Eastern Europe, after the 1990s, fertility transition from the traditional model to the modern one is occurring. A stable fertility decline was observed up to 2004, while the total fertility rate settled at 1.7-1.8 births per woman in the following years. Although the indicator is higher comparative to other states, the factors determining …

Financial Disagreements and Money Management Among Older Married and Cohabiting Couples in Sweden

Kridahl, L. & Duvander, A. (2022). Journal of Family and Economic Issues 10.1007/s10834-022-09846-z

This study investigates how partners’ money management strategies are associated with the experience of financial disagreements among older couples (60–80 years old). Money management is a broad concept, and this study operationalizes whether the partners pool all money, the partners pool some money, one partner manages the money (and gives a share to the other partner for personal spending), or …

studied data contains demographic and socioeconomic events, where the events are presented as sequences of statuses. The involved demographers are interested in applications of advanced ML techniques and interpretable patterns for their needs. We show how Shapley value-based explanations can be obtained for such sequential data with powerful ML approach, namely gradient boosting over decision trees. Thus, it helps to …

Does the Survey Mode Affect the Association Between Subjective Well-being and its Determinants? An Experimental Comparison Between Face-to-Face and Web Mode

Piccitto, G., Liefbroer, A., & Emery, T. (2022). Journal of Happiness Studies, 23(7), 3441-3461 10.1007/s10902-022-00553-y

Abstract Subjective well-being research increasingly uses web surveys to understand how subjective well-being indicators are related to other concepts of interest. Although we know that mean scores on these indicators may differ between modes, we know little about whether a move to web will influence the conclusions we draw about our conceptual models. This study uses data from a unique …

Does what the man studies affect what he does at home? Field of education and gender division of housework and childcare in Norway, Austria and Poland

Martín-García, T. & Solera, C. (2022). Journal of Family Studies, 1-28 10.1080/13229400.2022.2051726

Using data from the Generations and Gender Survey, this study explores the association between men’s fields of education and the gender division of unpaid work among co-residential heterosexual couples in Norway, Austria and Poland. Fathers’ relative contribution to childcare is higher than it is to domestic work in all three countries, suggesting that men have increasingly become more involved fathers …

Does union type make a difference when you separate? Frequency of father–child contact and father’s satisfaction with the relation

Zilincikova, Z. & Albertini, M. (2022). Genus, 78(1), 22 10.1186/s41118-022-00169-3

Abstract Growing separation and divorce rates have attracted scholars’ attention to the association between relationship breakup and the relations between fathers and their minor children. Pre-separation life course events and characteristics may influence this relationship. One important characteristic to be considered is the type of union in which ex-partners were in. In this article, we study the association between previous …

Couple disagreements and partnership stability in 10 European countries: Could differences in gender equality explain cross-national variations?

Fučík, P. (2022). International Journal of Comparative Sociology 10.1177/00207152221111437

This article focuses on the association between couple disagreement and partnership stability. In particular, we explore the mediating role of macrostructural gender inequality on the effect of couple disagreements on partnership stability in a cross-national comparative perspective. We analyzed data from two waves of the Gender and Generations Survey (fielded between 2004 and 2011) to explore the varied effects of …

Couples’ Relative Resources, Male Power, and Relationship Conflict from a Comparative Perspective

Van Damme, M., Cortina, C., & González, M. (2022). Journal of Family Issues, 43(5), 1263-1287 10.1177/0192513X211022397

Using two waves of the Generations and Gender Survey for eight European countries, we test under what conditions couples experience high levels of disagreement over time or separate. The results partly support the idea of relative resources, suggesting that a decrease in the status of men in couples (job loss) is significantly associated with high levels of conflict. The transition …

Childcare in Lithuania and Belarus: how gendered is parenting in Eastern European countries?

Steinbach, A. & Maslauskaitė, A. (2022). Journal of Family Studies, 28(3), 1181-1197 10.1080/13229400.2020.1806903

Research shows that even though the time women and men spend on housework has slowly converged in recent decades, the time mothers and fathers invest in childcare has not changed as much. This paper aims to contribute to the literature on childcare by focusing on the two Eastern European countries of Lithuania and Belarus, which took very different development paths …

Childbearing among Polish migrant women and their descendants in Sweden: an origin-destination country approach

Lindström, J., Mussino, E., & Oláh, L. (2022). Journal of Population Research, 39(1), 133-155 10.1007/s12546-022-09283-7

Abstract This paper examines the childbearing behaviour of Polish migrant women and their descendants in Sweden. Also considering stayers in the country of origin, we rely on a country-of-origin and country-of-destination approach in a careful examination regarding the relevance of three hypotheses on migrant fertility: the socialisation, selection, and adaptation hypotheses. We analyse the transitions to first and second births …

Best done differently? Couples’ money pooling and the association with economic conflicts

Duvander, A. & Kridahl, L. (2022). Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, 39(5), 1344-1368 10.1177/02654075211056561

Economic conflicts are likely to affect couples’ relationship, and different strategies of handling money may be important for how common such conflicts are. This study investigates whether couples’ choice of pooling money is associated with the occurrence of economic conflicts and whether different degree of pooling matters differently in different situations in life. The study focuses on whether the respondents …

Unpacking intentions to leave the parental home in Europe using the Generations and Gender Survey

Schwanitz, K., Rampazzo, F., & Vitali, A. (2021). Demographic Research, 45, 17-54 10.4054/DemRes.2021.45.2

BACKGROUND Comparative research has shown considerable cross-national differences in the age at leaving the parental home across Europe. Intentions to leave home might help to shed light on such marked heterogeneity in patterns of home-leaving. OBJECTIVE We address to what extent personal preferences (measured by attitudes), normative pressure (measured by subjective norms), and structural barriers (measured by perceived behavioural control) …

Three dimensions of the relationship between gender role attitudes and fertility intentions

Lappegård, T., Neyer, G., & Vignoli, D. (2021). Genus, 77(1), 15 10.1186/s41118-021-00126-6

Abstract The relationship between gender role attitudes and fertility intentions is highly debated among social scientists. We emphasize the need for a multidimensional theoretical and empirical approach to extend the two-step behavioral gender revolution approach to a three-step attitudinal gender revolution approach distinguishing between gender roles in the public sphere, mothers’ role in the family, and fathers’ role in the …

The Role of Parent‐Child Relationships and Filial Expectations in Loneliness Among Older Turkish Migrants

Kate, R., Bilecen, B., & Steverink, N. (2021). Social Inclusion, 9(4), 291-303 10.17645/si.v9i4.4508

Older first‐generation migrants living in Europe, particularly Turkish migrants, feel relatively lonely, which indicates social exclusion. Social embeddedness within the family, particularly parent‐child relationships, can alleviate loneliness for older migrants, but such relationships can also be ambivalent, which may not prevent loneliness altogether. Earlier research indicates that Turkish migrants in Germany report high quality relationships with their children and high …

The realization of fertility intentions in the context of childbearing postponement: comparison of transitional and post-transitional populations

Abstract Childbearing postponement is a key demographic change that has been experienced by most European countries. It leads to a late-fertility pattern, with women realizing their reproductive plans preferentially after the age of 30. This may result in a lower fertility level. Since the ideal family size has not changed in most European countries, it has been argued that the …
