Anthropometric differences between twins at birth and their association with later cognitive performance
BACKGROUND: Past studies indicate significant associations between birth anthropometrics, such as relative birthweight or head circumference, and later cognitive performance. Using twin data, we investigated whether these associations are confounded by genetic and environmental factors. Additionally, we determined whether the association of within twin differences in birth anthropometrics and cognitive performance is nonlinear or moderated by fac…
Does parental involvement in school affect children's school performance
Parental involvement in school is often highlighted as being part of the transmission belt through which unequal parental homes influence children's school performance, passing on advantages and disadvantages. However, particularly genetically informed studies have cast doubt on the causality of these associations. This paper examines several pathways of how gene-environment correlation and interaction may contribute to only spurious correlation …

Does the Quality of Early Childhood Education and Care Centers Mitigate the Risk of Externalizing Problems? A Genetic-Sensitive Study of Preschoolers in Germany
This paper examines the extent to which quality characteristics of early childhood education and care (ECEC) experienced at ages 4–6 influence externalizing problems at ages 6–8. Based on a random sample of 713 same-sex twins (55% female, 41% with a migration background) in 364 ECEC centers in Germany, the paper not only distinguishes between detailed ECEC quality characteristics but additionally investigates whether these characteristics affect …
Genetic and environmental contributions to the subjective burden of social isolation during the Covid-19 pandemic
While some of the observed associations appear to be genetic, our findings underscore the need for further research, as the causes of individual differences in burden of social isolation remain unclear
Does social origin modify the heritability of cognitive ability? A close look at the relevance of different parental resources
Does parental separation moderate the heritability of health risk behavior among adolescents
How variants of tracking affect the role of genes and environment in explaining child attendance at upper secondary school
Do academic ability and social background influence each other in shaping educational attainment? The case of the transition to secondary education in Germany
Patterns of spatial proximity and the timing and spacing of bearing children
Peopleâ s demographic decision-making is embedded in regional cultural contexts that include regional patterns of family organization called family systems. Although previous research has shown that family systems explain regional variation in fertility, it
Is there something special about twin families? A comparison of parenting styles in twin and non-twin families
Family Systems and Fertility Intentions
The Interplay of Family Systems, Social Networks and Fertility in Europe Cohorts Born Between 1920 and 1960
Despite important variations in regional family systems, little research has been done to assess the effects of these differences on fertility and thus on families’ economic status. Even less attention has been paid to the effects of deviating from these regionally embedded norms in terms of network compositions. People's social networks may not conform to the region's view of the ideal family, while this could have important implications for the…
The Impact of Family Setting and Local Opportunities on Leaving Home and Migration Destinations of Rural Youths, The Netherlands 1860-1940
In this article we aim to study how Dutch children’s individual destinies result from the complex interplay of family setting and local conditions in a rural environment. We focus on their final move from the parental home, and we will analyse not only timing and incidence of leaving, but also the destinations. To do this, we propose a multi-level competing risk analysis of migration destinations. We focus on two groups: the children of farmers a…
Regional Differences in the Intergenerational Transmission of Family Size in Europe
Many studies report positive correlations between family sizes of successive generations, but the degree of correlation varies between countries. However, the majority of these studies are limited in geographical scope and do not consider the role of regional family organisation principles, that is, family systems. In this paper, we investigate to what extent regional family systems explain geographical differences in intergenerational transmissi…
Flight from the land? Migration flows of the rural population of the Netherlands, 1850-1940
In this article, we aim to analyze the residential options of the rural population of the Netherlands in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century from the perspective of push factors operating at different levels: the household, the municipality and the region. We contrast the decision to stay with moving in several ways: within the municipality or its immediate surroundings, within the region, to a different region, to a city or abroad. T…
Strong and weak family ties revisited
Family systems appear to be an important factor framing people's individual behavior. Thus far, family systems have been primarily addressed on a macro regional level with indirect measures. Revisiting Reher (1998) and the family ties criterion, the main question of this paper is to examine to what extent we perceive family structures differently in Europe by taking direct measures of the structures of people's broader social networks into consid…
