Seit der Machtübernahme der Taliban versuchen mehr Menschen denn je, Afghanistan so schnell wie möglich zu verlassen. In einem aktuellen IAB-Forschungsbericht hat ein sechsköpfiges Forscherteam versucht abzuschätzen, wie sich dies auf die Migration aus Afghanistan und auf das Integrationsgeschehen in Deutschland auswirken dürfte. Die Redaktion des IAB-Forum hat bei Professor Herbert Brücker nachgefragt, ...

This article examines how the characteristics of people needing care determine the provision of family care and the time intensity of caring for men and women. Using novel data, we conduct linear (probability) regression models and find that women face family care demands as often as men but tend to provide more (time-intensive) care. When of retirement age, men are more likely than women to meet care ...

Volunteers’ time contributions have decreased in some European societies, and researchers have sought to understand why. This study aims to uncover the relationship between work-family life changes and changes in individual voluntary behaviour with volunteers’ time contributions. To analyse how determinants for volunteer time contributions have changed over time, we draw on cross-sectional data from ...

A new algorithmic approach to personality prototyping based on Big Five traits was applied to a large representative and longitudinal German dataset (N = 22,820) including behavior, personality and health correlates. We applied three different clustering techniques, latent profile analysis, the k-means method and spectral clustering algorithms. The resulting cluster centers, i.e. the personality prototypes, ...

In Deutschland - wie auch international - ist die Mietbelastung seit Beginn der 1990er Jahre gestiegen. Anfang der 2000er Jahre wurde dieser Trend gebrochen und die Belastung blieb annähernd konstant. Zudem haben sich die Unterschiede in der Belastung zwischen den verschiedenen Einkommensgruppen in den letzten Jahren vergrößert. Im Jahr 2021 zahlten die einkommensschwächsten 20 Prozent der Miethaushalte ...

Evidence from intergenerational correlations and sibling correlations shows that intergenerational persistence in wealth is substantially large and similar in size compared to income persistence. The intergenerational persistence in wealth is partly due to the direct transfers of wealth from parents to children, which makes wealth unique compared to other resources such as education and income. Furthermore, ...

Abstract As a consequence of increasing human-wildlife encounters, the associated potential for human-wildlife conflict rises. The dependency of conservation management actions on the acceptance or even the participation of people requires modern conservation strategies that take the human dimension of wildlife management into account. In the first place, conservationists therefore need to understand ...

Entrepreneurs tend to be risk tolerant but is higher risk tolerance always better? In a sample of about 2100 small businesses, we find an inverted U-shaped relation between risk tolerance and profitability. This relationship holds in a simple bilateral regression, and even after controlling for a large set of individual and business characteristics. Apparently, one major transmission goes from risk ...

A substantial body of research examines entry into and exit from self-employment. However, little is known about the career patterns of the self-employed, their transitions into and from self-employment and the success associated with different patterns of their careers. To address these issues, we examine the career patterns of individuals with self-employment experience and their relationship to ...
