Under contract and in good health: a multigroup cross-lagged panel model of time use and health-related quality of life in working-age men and women

Background: Self-reported time-use in relation to health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has been widely studied, yet less is known about the directionality of the association and how it compares across genders when controlling for sociodemographic confounders. Methods: This study focused on the working population of the most recent waves (2013–2018) of the Core-Study of the German Socio-Economic Panel ...

Locus of Control and Prosocial Behavior

We investigate how locus of control beliefs – the extent to which individuals attribute control over events in their life to themselves as opposed to outside factors – affect prosocial behavior and the private provision of public goods. We begin by developing a conceptual framework showing how locus of control beliefs serve as a weight placed on the returns from one’s own contributions (impure altruism) ...

Dramatic effects but fast adaptation: Changes in life satisfaction and different facets of affective well-being around the death of a partner and death of a child

Although everyone would agree that bereavement is extremely stressful, surprisingly little is known about changes in different facets of affective well-being in the years surrounding the death of a loved one. On the basis of the Socio-Economic Panel Study, we examined changes in cognitive well-being (life satisfaction) and different facets of affective well-being (happiness, sadness, anxiety, and anger) ...

The Role of Within-Occupation Task Changes in Wage Development

We examine how changes in task content over time condition occupational wage development. Using survey data from Germany, we document substantial heterogeneity in within-occupational changes in task content. Combining this evidence with administrative data on individual employment outcomes over a 25-year period, we find important heterogeneity in wage penalties amongst initially routine intensive jobs. ...

Technological Progress, Occupational Structure and Gender Gaps in the German Labour Market

We analyze if technological progress and the corresponding change in the occupational structure have improved the relative position of women in the labour market. We show that the share of women rises most strongly in non-routine cognitive and manual occupations, but declines in routine occupations. While the share of women also rises relatively strongly in high-paying occupations, womens' individual-level ...

Sozioökonomische und einstellungsbezogene Ursachen für Wanderungen von CDU/CSU- und SPD-Wähler*innen zur AfD bei der Bundestagswahl 2017

Längsschnittliche Studien zu den sozioökonomischen und einstellungsbezogenen Ursachen für Wählerwanderungen zur AfD sind bislang rar. Wir schließen diese Lücke auf Basis eines Modells, das Abwanderungen zur AfD bei der Bundestagswahl 2017 unter Berücksichtigung der Änderungen migrationsbezogener und ökonomischer Einstellungen sowie der sozioökonomischen Situation von CDU/CSU- und SPD-Wähler*innen des ...
