Sports Attitudes in Childhood and Income in Adulthood
Research shows that sports participation in youth is associated with earnings in adulthood. However, studies have often relied on self-reported earnings and on single indicators of sports participation. Using large-scale data linked to administrative records, we investigate: (a) whether sports attitudes at age 13 are uniquely related to income at ages 30–36 and (b) whether educational attainment and mental health in early adulthood mediate this a…
Social mobility and mental health in Canada
Intergenerational reproduction and self‐rated health in Canada
Intergenerational processes in which the socioeconomic status of middle- and upper-class parents is reproduced in their children have been extensively documented by social scientists. We mobilized a unique dataset, the Longitudinal and International Study of Adults (LISA) linked to income data from the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), to investigate the relevance of intergenerational socioeconomic reproduction for inequalities in self-rated health in…
The measure of a fan: Social patterns of voracious sports following in Canada
Sociological studies on the manifestations and reproduction of inequality through cultural consumption have focused on few domains of culture and have mostly neglected intensity in consumption. Using large‐scale survey data about professional sports following in Canada, we investigate how socioeconomic position is associated with intensity of professional sports following (“voraciousness”). Our multinomial logistic regression analyses suggest tha…
Interactions between parental and personal socioeconomic resources and self-rated health: Adjudicating between the resource substitution and resource multiplication theories
Intergenerational social mobility and self-rated health in Canada
A growing body of research seeks to reveal the health effects of 'falling from grace' or 'rising from rags,' i.e., experiencing downward or upward mobility relative to one's family socioeconomic background. In this study, we mobilized a unique dataset, the 2012 Longitudinal and International Study of Adults linked to historical income data from the Canada Revenue Agency, to investigate associations between both educational and income mobility and…
Family income and health in Canada: A longitudinal study of stability and change
Previous studies of the association between family income and health in Canada may have overlooked important issues pertaining to family income stability and change that are impactful for health
Tastes, emotions, and social cohesion: Toward a cultural theory of social exchange
The Affect Theory of Social Exchange (ATSE) research program has produced cumulative insights on how instrumental exchanges lead to the development of affectual attachments. With its focus on task responsibilities, ATSE leaves space to interrogate how factors not related to task execution are at play in the production of interpersonal bonds. In this paper, we integrate insights from social psychology, cultural sociology and organizational researc…
Socio-economic resources and adult mental health in Canada: Controlling for time-invariant confounders and investigating causal directionality
Gender in Coed Team Sports: A Social Psychological Perspective
Coed team sports typically offer different experiences for women and men. Though scholars have documented gender imbalances in participation within such teams, the social psychological processes at play and the broader consequences of unequal participation have rarely been explored. In this paper, the authors revisit coed team sports through the lens of status construction theory and expectation states theory to suggest that coed teams reinforce …
Family income and self-rated health in Canada: Using fixed effects models to control for unobserved confounders and investigate causal temporality
Time, Place and Home: Exploring Meanings of Home in Vancouver
Building on recent studies emphasizing how structural and contextual forces shape notions of home, I explore how the experience of home is related to the concepts of time and place. Using 46 interviews with 23 individuals, I investigate how home is defined and experienced by younger and older adults in relationship to Vancouver's particular cultural, geographic, and historical contexts. I find three main ways in which respondents established a se…
The Stratification of Attendance at Cultural Activities in Canada
Scholars have debated the relative applicability of homology and omnivorousness, two theories of cultural stratification, for explaining links between socioeconomic position and cultural repertoires. However, the discussion has mostly focused on musical tastes rather than attendance at cultural activities. Using data from the 2010 Canadian General Social Survey on Time Use, I examine how measures of socioeconomic position predict attendance at 12…
