  • Parenthood and Subsequent Employment: Changes in the Labor Participation of Fathers Across Cohorts as Compared to Mothers

    In the literature there is plenty of evidence available on the effect of childbearing on female employment biographies. In the present paper, we extend the analysis to men and show how parenthood differently affects employment biographies of men and women. We also investigate how these differences change with time. Concretely, we are interested in the question whether in the process of social change ...

  • Separate paths, same direction? De-standardization of male employment biographies in East and West Germany

    Until the mid-1980s, labour markets in Germany were characterized by a high level of employment stability. Employment biographies of men were dominated by full-time employment in both East and West Germany and were hence quite similar in this respect, despite the two regions’ enormously different institutional settings. Since that time however, important changes have occurred. Labour markets have become ...

Our study provides evidence of an association between attendance at religious services and life satisfaction for respondents residing in West Germany. While social networks partially mediate this relationship for West Germany, there ...

    This paper investigates the determinants of migrants’ financial transfers to their home country using German data. A double-hurdle model is applied to analyze the determinants of the propensity to send transfers abroad and the amount of transfers. The findings reveal that return intentions positively affect financial transfers of immigrants to their home country. Moreover, while the effect of the household ...

  • Explaining Gender Convergence in Housework Time: Evidence from a Cohort-Sequence Design

    This study connects two lines of research—trend studies on social change in housework time and life-course studies on individual- and couple-level change in housework time. This novel approach allowed us to link the macro-level trend of gender convergence in housework time to the micro-level mechanisms underlying it. Using long-running panel data (SOEP), we implemented a cohort-sequence design that ...
