Psychologists, self-help gurus, and parents all work to make their clients, friends, and children happier. Recent research indicates that happiness is functional and generally leads to success.

Very few genetic variants have been associated with depression and neuroticism, likely because of limitations on sample size in previous studies. Subjective well-being, a phenotype that is genetically correlated with both of these traits, has not yet been studied with genome-wide data. We conducted genome-wide association studies of three phenotypes: subjective well-being (n = 298,420), depressive ...

Educational attainment is strongly influenced by social and other environmental factors, but genetic factors are estimated to account for at least 20% of the variation across individuals1. Here we report the results of a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for educational attainment that extends our earlier discovery sample1, 2 of 101,069 individuals to 293,723 individuals, and a replication study ...

This thesis examines self-selection mechanisms regarding the return migration decision of immigrants as well as the influence of both these mechanisms and cohort effects on cross-sectional wage assimilation measures using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP) from 1984 to 2007. In contrast to former empirical studies assimilation patterns are not solely investigated in a cross-sectional ...

Although population aging is internationally pervasive, only few recent studies analyze its effects on relative labor market outcomes in the most affected countries. This paper shows that demographic change in Germany causes shifts in the wage and employment structures in favor of young workers. I firstly account for the fact that workers compete for certain jobs mainly within occupational tracks. ...

Melanie Olczyk untersucht die Bedeutung (eigen-)ethnischer Bezüge für den Bildungserwerb von Kindern und Jugendlichen mit Zuwanderungshintergrund. Dazu führt sie theoretische Überlegungen zusammen, diskutiert die vorliegenden empirischen Befunde und unterzieht die zentralen Argumente anschließend einer empirischen Prüfung auf Grundlage von Daten des Nationalen Bildungspanels (NEPS) und des Sozio-oekonomischen ...
