In this article, we introduce the command beyondpareto, which estimates the extreme-value index for distributions that are Pareto-like, that is, whose upper tails are regularly varying and eventually become Pareto. The estimation is based on rank-size regressions, and the threshold value for the upper-order statistics included in the final regression is determined optimally by minimizing the asymptotic ...

Refugees' experience itself serves as a determinant, interacting with individual and socio-economic factors throughout the migratory cycle, making them particularly vulnerable. The theoretical contribution of this study lies in its focus on resilience as a key protective factor ...

Separation, divorce, and repartnering are increasingly common across European societies. These partnership transitions are closely related to individuals' housing careers.

Less is known about the cumulative effects of socioeconomic risk factors, which may have a greater impact on child outcomes than single factors, especially in the first years of life. The study utilized latent mixture models to investigate the effects of socioeconomic ...
