  • Non-linear price schedules, demand for health care and response behavior

    When health insurance reforms involve non-linear price schedules tied to payment periods (for example, a quarter or a year), the empirical analysis of its effects has to take the within-period time structure of incentives into account. The analysis is further complicated when demand data are obtained from a survey in which the reporting period does not coincide with the payment period. We illustrate ...

  • Per-period co-payments and the demand for health care: evidence from survey and claims data

    When health insurance reforms involve non-linear price schedules tied to payment periods (for example, fees levied by quarter or year), the empirical analysis of its effects has to take the within-period time structure of incentives into account. The analysis is further complicated when demand data are obtained from a survey in which the reporting period does not coincide with the payment period. We ...

  • Internal Migration - Challenges and Perspectives for the Research Infrastructure

    Research on internal migration covers a wide range of issues with regard to the reasons, distance and direction of moves as well as the process of decision-making. Given the rich field of relevant research objectives and the substantial developments in migration theory it is apparent that the availability of a broad set of data including detailed information on various aspects of life is one of the ...

  • Internal Migration

    Research on internal migration covers a wide range of issues that pertain to the reasons for moving, the distance and direction of movement within a country, and the process of decision making involved in undertaking these moves. Given the rich field of relevant research objectives and the substantial developments in migration theory, it is clear that the availability of a broad set of data that includes ...

  • Social Policy and Temporal Patterns of Retirement: Evidence from Germany and Britain

    Since the 1970s retirement has become increasingly early and less standardized. While much research has addressed the early retirement trend, there is little understanding of changing retirement patterns. Yet, changing retirement patterns are an important potential driver of economic inequality among retirees. This article proposes de-standardization and differentiation as two concepts to systematically ...

  • Retirement Patterns and Income Inequality

    How do social policies shape life courses, and which consequences do different life course patterns hold for individuals? This article engages the example of retirement in Germany and Britain to analyze life course patterns and their consequences for income inequality. Sequence analysis is used to measure retirement trajectories. The liberal welfare state in Britain generates more unstable retirement ...

  • Women’s Retirement Income in Germany and Britain

    This article analyses women’s retirement income in the context of two distinct welfare states. In addition to women’s employment history, we consider their marital history over the life course as an important determinant of retirement income. We use longitudinal data for women born between 1930 and 1940 from the German Socio-Economic Panel and the British Household Panel Study. The results shed light ...

  • Estimating Benefits from Regional Amenities: Internal Migration and Life Satisfaction

    This paper is the first to link economic theory with empirical life-satisfaction analyses referring to internal migration. We derive an extension of the Roback (1982) model to account for benefits from regional amenities in the utility function, while controlling for income, housing costs, and migration costs. Using highly disaggregated spatial panel information on people’s migration decisions and ...

  • Mixed Methods and Multisited Migration Research: Innovations From a Transnational Perspective

    This article discusses the use of mixed methods design for transnational migration research. It draws on two currently expanding strategies that can form part of an integrated framework that reveals multiple complementary perspectives: (a) the incorporation of quantitative data and methods in what has been a largely qualitative field and (b) the use of multisited research that investigates individuals ...

  • Measuring transnationality of immigrants in Germany: prevalence and relationship with social inequalities

    The scope of immigrants' transnational ties and the relationship to their social position is subject to a controversial debate that suggests a dualistic picture. On the one hand, globalization theorists argue that an elite of highly educated and economically most successful professionals intensively engages in and benefits from transnationality. On the other hand, most scholars in migration and ...
