Business disruptions due to social vulnerability and criminal activities in urban areas
Health inequalities among people experiencing food insecurity. An intersectional approach
The study examines the socioeconomic determinants of physical health among populations experiencing food insecurity and receiving free meals in soup kitchens in the Prefecture of Attica, Greece. Data were collected from the same six soup kitchens in 2012, 2017 and 2021, resulting in a dataset of 1533 observations. The study revealed that periods characterised by an economic recession are associated with deteriorated physical health of food-insecu…
Discrimination and health outcomes in England's black communities amid the cost-of-living crisis
Economic recession, parental unemployment and adolescents’ health-related quality of life and mental health outcomes in Greece
This study examines whether an association exists between parental unemployment and health-related quality of life and mental health for adolescents aged 15–18 in Athens, Greece. The gathered dataset covers the same upper high schools in two periods, 2011–2013 and 2017–2019. The study finds that parental unemployment bears an association with decreased health-related quality of life and increased adverse mental health symptoms for adolescents. Mo…
M-health Apps and Physical and Mental Health Outcomes of Sexual Minorities

The present study examines associations between m-physical and m-mental health apps and sexual minorities' physical and mental health status in Greece. The study utilized three waves of panel data collected in 2018, 2019, and 2020. The findings indicated as…
The perceived social rejection of sexual minorities
Sex workers’ self-reported physical and mental health in Greece. A repeated cross-sectional study in 2009, 2013 and 2019
In Greece, given the precarious nature of the sex work industry, sex workers health and wellbeing is of concern. However, relevant research remains limited. This study examined whether sex workers' self-reported physical and mental health deteriorated across time points during the economic recession in Athens, Greece. The study focused on 13 areas where off-street and street-based sex work occurred. Cross-sectional data was collected from the sam…
Associating the Change in New Covid-19 Cases to GDP per Capita in 38 European Countries in the First Wave of the Pandemic
COVID-19 has affected all countries globally. We explore associations between the change in new COVID-19 registered cases per million population and various macroeconomic and well-being indicators in 38 European countries over a 2-month period (1st April-31st May 2020). A statistically significant ( p = 0.002) negative association was estimated between the change in new COVID-19 cases and GDP per capita, after controlling for key health determina…

What Are the Structural Barriers to Planning for Later Life? A Scoping Review of the Literature
The rollback of the welfare state in countries such as the UK, coupled with population ageing, have contributed to a situation in which responsibility for older people’s wellbeing is placed more heavily on the individual. This is exemplified in the notion in popular and policy circles that individuals should plan for later life, particularly financially, and a corresponding concern that they are not doing so sufficiently. This scoping review aime…
Sexual orientation discrimination in the United Kingdom’s labour market
Deviations from heteronormativity affect labour market dynamics. Hierarchies of sexual orientation can result in job dismissals, wage discrimination and the failure to promote gay and lesbian individuals to top ranks. In this article, I report on a field experiment (144 job-seekers and their correspondence with 5549 firms) that tested the extent to which sexual orientation affects the labour market outcomes of gay and lesbian job-seekers in the U…
The effect of unemployment on self-reported health and mental health in Greece from 2008 to 2013
Estimating ethnic discrimination in the labour market using experimental data
Using a field experiment for the period 2008–2009, we examine the impact of ethnicity on women’s labour market outcomes four years after the national adoption of the European Racial and Employment Equality Directives. The estimations lead to the observation that ethnic women face a lower chance of occupational access than comparable Greek women, while, ethnic women’s wage offers are also discriminatory. The estimations suggest that there is segre…
Ethnic identity and immigrants’ wages in Greece
Roma women in Athenian firms
In the current study, we analyse the effect of having a Roma background on women's wages. By utilizing data from sixteen multiethnic municipalities in which Roma live, we estimate that 66.2 per cent of the wage differential between Roma and non-Roma female workers cannot be explained by differences in observed characteristics. Prejudices against Roma women are discussed and appear to explain the wage gap found here. The occupational segregation o…
Women's Sexual Orientation and Labor Market Outcomes in Greece
This study is the first to use a field experiment to provide information on the relationship between women being lesbian and their hiring prospects in Greece. Data for 2007-8 support previous findings (in Canada and Austria) indicating that lesbians face hiring discrimination. The study finds that the estimated probability of lesbian applicants receiving an invitation for an interview is 27.7 percent lower than that for heterosexual women applica…
Ethnic discrimination in the Greek housing market
Ethnic Differences in Housing Opportunities in Athens
This study uses a telephone field experiment to assess the degree of discrimination against female Albanians in Athenian rental housing markets. By examining a large sample represented by 122 urban areas, it was found that Albanians faced lower access to housing than the corresponding probability for Greeks. Moreover, Albanians faced lower access in newer apartments, above-ground apartments and repaired apartments. Meanwhile, Albanian home-seeker…
Religious Affiliation and Employment Bias in the Labor Market
Religious affiliation and employment bias is examined in Athens, Greece by implementing an experimental field study. Labor market outcomes (occupation access, entry wage, and wait time for call back) are assessed for three religious minorities (Pentecostal, evangelical, and Jehovah's Witnesses) compared to the religious majority (Greek Orthodox). Results indicate that religious minorities experience employment bias as measured by access to job in…
