Shaping Environmental Attitudes Through Distributive Justice
In the face of climate change, the principles of distributive justice have become paramount in addressing the implications of resource allocation and the unequal impacts of environmental degradation. Distributive justice theory distinguishes four principles (equality, need, merit, and entitlement), which together provide a conceptual framework for evaluating fairness. Our study explores the relationship between distributive justice and environmen…
Adolescent health lifestyles and suicidality
Adolescent suicidal behavior is a major global public health concern. Risks are often shaped not only by individual behaviors alone but also by broader constellations of health lifestyles. We aim to identify distinct adolescent health lifestyles and assess their associations with suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. Using data from the 2022 Luxembourg Health Behaviour in School-aged Children survey, latent class analysis identified five health…
Massively multiplayer online games and social capital
Video gaming has historically been regarded as a pastime with addictive potential and has subsequently been the subject of public scrutiny, in media and academia. In the early 2000s, massively multiplayer online games (MMO) in particular were the locus of addiction-centred debates. However, over time different avenues of research into the outcomes of MMOs have opened up, honing in on social and psychological consequences. The present systematic l…
Subjective School Experience and Well-Being during the Covid-19 Pandemic
School life is an important determinant of adolescents’ subjective well-being. While there is now an extensive literature on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on adolescents’ well-being, adolescents’ school experience during the pandemic and how it relates to different dimensions of their subjective well-being has received little attention. This study addresses this gap by examining the relationship between young people’s school experience and …
The Impact of Eco-Anxiety and Extreme Weather Proximity on Young People’s Happiness and Life Satisfaction
This article investigates how eco-anxiety relates to subjective well-being among young people in Luxembourg, and whether this relationship is modified by proximity to extreme weather events. Luxembourg, with one of the highest GDPs in the world, represents a noteworthy case of a nation that also consistently ranks among the happiest. Yet it experienced a severe flooding in the summer of 2021. Using data from a natural experiment, we find that eco…
Digital engagement and youth
The rapid expansion of digital technologies has created both opportunities and risks for young people. Previous research shows that their digital engagement is often driven by educational or informational needs, social interaction, and entertainment. However, many practitioners and scholars warn of youth-specific risks. Moreover, pre-existing socioeconomic advantages shape not only access but also young people’s digital motivation, mastery, and p…
Gender and unemployment
This study investigates the interplay between occupational sex composition and gender-specific unemployment patterns from the perspective of demand-side mechanisms, an area where existing research is scant. Experimental evidence suggests that unemployment is often perceived more negatively for men than for women in hiring decisions. However, it is unclear how the disadvantages from unemployment and those associated with applying for gender-atypic…
Lessons learned from the Covid-19 pandemic
Introduction: The COVID-19 (COronaVIrus Disease-2019) pandemic highlighted the importance of assessing the rationales behind vaccine hesitancy for the containment of pandemics. In this nationwide study, representative of the Luxembourgish population, we identified hesitant groups from adolescence to late adulthood and explored motivations both for and against vaccination. Methods: We combined data collected via online surveys for the CON-VINCE (C…
Variation in unemployment scarring across labor markets. A comparative factorial survey experiment using real vacancies
Unemployment may severely impede access to (good) jobs. We focus on the effects of unemployment scarring on the chances of young workers to get hired and evaluate the extent to which they are affected in labor markets with different levels of unemployment. Drawing on Goffman’s work on stigmatization and on queuing theory, we derive two potentially complementary micro-level explanations with opposing macro-level implication. We address the variati…
Youths' Perceived Coping with the Covid-19 Pandemic and Subjective Well-Being
The role of trust in government and risk perception in adherence to Covid-19 prevention measures
Citizens’ trust in government is crucial in managing crises that require coordination as it is linked to cooperative behaviour and sociability. Willingness to adopt appropriate health measures plays a decisive role in the effective containment of COVID-19 and other pandemics. Preventive health measures such as physical distancing, avoiding crowded places, wearing masks, and frequent hand washing reduce the spread of the virus. In this study, we e…
The association between socioeconomic status and C-reactive protein in Bayesian perspective
This study analyzed the total health inequality on risks of chronic inflammation.•We used Bayesian multiple and distributional regression models.•Between-group posterior distributions show a robust educational gradient in health.•Within-group posterior distributions show polarized risks for individuals
Changing routinized household energy consumption using the example of washing, cooking, and standby
Despite advances in understanding routines, there is little knowledge about which aspects of routinized behavior people adjust during interventions. In this study, we applied an adjusted social practice theory framework to disentangle routinized energy consumption, focusing on energy services related to washing, standby, and cooking. We investigate the potential of home energy advice to change elements of routinized behaviors, namely meanings, kn…
The application of factorial surveys to study recruiters’ hiring intentions
Factorial survey experiments have been widely used to study recruiters’ hiring intentions. Respondents are asked to evaluate hypothetical applicant descriptions, which are experimentally manipulated, for hypothetical job descriptions. However, this methodology has been criticized for putting respondents in hypothetical situations that often only partially correspond to real-life hiring situations. It has been proposed that this criticism can be o…
Negative life events, self-efficacy, and social support
Prior studies have noted several risk and protective factors for school dropout; however, only a few have examined longer-term vulnerabilities alongside temporary risk and protective factors. Consequently, we focused on the role that both stable and time-varying psychosocial risk and protective factors play in dropout intentions and actual dropout, using a 4-year longitudinal design. We investigated to what extent dropout intentions and dropout c…
Valuing creativity, feeling overworked and working hours
Boltanski and Chiapello argued that creativity is a required attribute of managers emanating from the ideology of the 'New Spirit of Capitalism'. Ideology provides the justification for work practices and brings material consequences in relation to the experience of time. This article explores both the ideology and the links between the ideological and the experience of time by assessing whether male managers prioritise creativity and whether thi…

The Role of Perceived Stress and Self-Efficacy in Young People’s Life Satisfaction
Male Breadwinning Revisited
We examine how male breadwinning and fatherhood relate to men’s overwork and underwork in western Europe. Male breadwinners should be less likely to experience overwork than other men, particularly when they have children, if specialising in paid work suits them. However, multinomial logistic regression analysis of the European Social Survey data from 2010 ( n = 4662) challenges this position: male breadwinners, with and without children, want to…

Geschlechterungleichheiten im intergenerationalen Bildungstransfer in der Schweiz
Die öffentliche Diskussion um geschlechtsspezifische Ungleichheiten hat sich - parallel zur Reduktion struktureller Benachteiligungen von Frauen - in den letzten Jahren stark gewandelt. Während traditionell die geringere Bildungs- und Erwerbsbeteiligung von Frauen in den Blick genommen wurde, ist nun der geringere Bildungserfolg von Jungen - im Hinblick auf Bildungsabschlüsse, Schulnoten oder Leistungstests - zum viel beachteten Thema geworden. Z…
