Endogamy norms and the gendered friendship-making of Muslim youth
Recent research among European Muslims finds that adolescent Muslim girls make more in-group friends and fewer out-group friends than Muslim boys. Researchers have suggested this to reflect gendered endogamy norms that complicate Muslim girls' out-group friendships, but a test of this explanation is missing. In this study, we investigate the role of endogamy norms while also considering potential alternative explanations, such as religiosity, exp…
Stable or dynamic? Explaining the development of Muslim and non-Muslim boys' and girls' friendship-making across adolescence
Strong ties, strong homophily? Variation in homophily on sociodemographic characteristics by relationship strength
Social networks are segregated by sociodemographic characteristics such as gender, ethnicity, religion, and socioeconomic status. A key reason for this segregation is homophily, or people's preferences to associate with similar others. Homophily is documented for relationships of different strengths, ranging from marriage and close friendship to weaker acquaintanceships. But does sociodemographic homophily vary by relationship strength? While mos…
Religion, Gender, and the Development of Leisure Time Activities from Adolescence to Young Adulthood
Previous research shows that Muslim girls in Western societies are less likely to do sports than both Muslim boys and non-Muslims of either gender. But we know little about whether other leisure time activities also differ by religion and gender and whether these patterns change during the transition from adolescence to young adulthood. In this data visualization, we use large-scale representative data from Germany to show how 13 leisure time act…
The Gendered Influence of Cross-Gender Friends on the Development of Adolescents’ Gender Role Attitudes
Gender role attitudes have important implications at the individual, family, and societal levels, underscoring the importance of understanding their development. Although parents predominate in the socialization of gender role attitudes in childhood, the influence of friends increases during adolescence. In particular, cross-gender friends can provide unique insights and perspectives on another gender group, making them likely to shape gender rol…
How gendered religious norms contribute to the emerging gender gap in Muslim youths’ interreligious friendships
Recent research finds that Muslim girls increasingly have in-group friendships in adolescence, while Muslim boys remain more open to interreligious friendships. This gender gap mirrors established findings of female Muslims’ lower involvement in interreligious romantic relationships, which is attributed to gendered religious norms. In this study, we examine whether gendered religious norms also contribute to the emerging gender gap in Muslim yout…
Gender segregation in the friendship networks of Muslim youth in Germany
No Differential Effects of Classroom Ethnic Composition on Native and Immigrant Friendship Segregation
Studying Youth' Group Identities, Intergroup Relations, and Friendship Networks
This data brief introduces the Friendship and Identity in School (FIS) dataset. The FIS data are school-based longitudinal social network data, which have become increasingly important in recent years. Including information on 2,500 adolescents in nine secondary schools in the German federal state of North Rhine-Westphalia, the FIS data have four important key features that make them uniquely suited for studying the co-evolution of friendship net…
Religious friendship preferences of Muslim and non-Muslim students in German schools
In-Group Bias or Out-Group Reluctance? The Interplay of Gender and Religion in Creating Religious Friendship Segregation among Muslim Youth
Even in diverse schools that provide opportunities for interreligious friendships, Muslim youth disproportionally tend to be friends with Muslims rather than non-Muslims. Echoing broader debates about minorities’ self-segregation versus exclusion by majority group members, a key question is whether religious friendship segregation arises because of Muslims’ in-group bias or because of non-Muslims’ reluctance to befriend them. We suggest that the …
Why Do Friends Have Similar Educational Expectations? Separating Influence and Selection Effects
The influence of friends in shaping students' educational expectations has received considerable theoretical and empirical attention in past research. However, few studies have directly tackled the methodological problems associated with estimating such influence effects. In particular, the separation of selection effects-with students selecting friends with similar educational expectations-from influence effects has remained elusive. In this stu…
Neighbourhood effects on acculturation attitudes among minority and majority adolescents in Germany
Attitudes on whether immigrants should culturally adapt to their receiving society or maintain the customs of their origin context vary – not only between majority and minority populations but also within these groups. Focusing on adolescents in the German context, this study investigates whether such acculturation attitudes are shaped by the ethnic composition of a person’s neighbourhood context. Building on arguments from theories of intergroup…
Labor market underrepresentation results in minority discrimination
This paper develops a dynamic model of minority labor market discrimination. Employers repeatedly decide to hire either minority or majority job candidates whose productivities are unobservable beforehand. Hiring decisions are based on productivity expectations derived from the observable productivity of employers’ previously hired workers. If employers have fewer minority workers initially—a plausible assumption for (numerical) minorities—they d…
Explaining Native‐Migrant Differences in Parental Knowledge about the German Educational System
To make sound educational decisions, students and their parents have to be informed about the way the educational system works. Such knowledge, however, tends to vary across social groups. This study investigates the differences in education‐related knowledge between native and migrant mothers in the German context. Empirical analyses based on a sample of native German mothers and mothers from Turkey or the former Soviet Union (N = 2076) indicate…
Explaining differences in gender role attitudes among migrant and native adolescents in Germany
This study examines gender role attitudes of native and migrant adolescents in Germany and attempts to explain why adolescents of Turkish, former Yugoslavian, and Eastern European origin tend to have more traditional attitudes than their native peers. In order to do so, it combines a migrant–native comparative approach that highlights the impact of religiosity and host society integration with an intergenerational transmission perspective that em…

Redesigning Teacher Education as a Shared Responsibility of Schools and Universities
The impetus for school and university collaboration began in the mid-1990s with the Carnegie Forum (1986) and Holmes Group (1986) recommending the establishment of school-university partnerships to improve teaching and learning. The Carnegie report, A Nation Prepared: Teachers for the 21st Century (1986), proposed that the best learning environment for teacher preparation was a clinical school linking school and university faculty. The Holmes Gro…
