The career mobility model suggests that overeducated workers are more prone to take up on-the-job training, to climb up the career ladder, or to leave to professions more suitable to their educational level. Our empirical analysis, using the German SOEP, confirms this theory for Germany. Comparing adequately qualified and overqualified workers in jobs that require the same level of formal qualification ...

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 ...

To address these issues, we examine the career patterns of individuals with self-employment experience and their relationship to ...

Eine Auswertung der Daten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels liefert ein heterogenes Bild zur Verteilung der Pflegelasten. Ein Großteil der Pflegenden ist im erwerbsfähigen Alter und die Mehrheit dieser Gruppe geht mindestens einer Teilzeit-, oftmals ...

Mit den Rentenreformen Anfang des letzten Jahrzehnts hat der Gesetzgeber der absehbaren Bevölkerungsalterung Rechnung getragen und einen Paradigmenwechsel vollzogen – weg von der Vorstellung einer den Lebensstandard sichernden gesetzlichen Versorgung, hin zu einer Kombination von gesetzlicher Rente und ergänzender Privatvorsorge. Dieser Weg steht nun infrage. Das schrittweise Absenken des gesetzlichen ...

Drawing on a representative sample from Germany, we first demonstrate that both dimensions strongly predict labor market success. We then use this sample to identify gender and socioeconomic disparities in levels and confidence. Finally, using a long-run RCT panel framework ...
