A Typology of Younger Adults' Nuclear and Extended Family Relations in the United States
Objective To develop a typology of relationship quality for nuclear and extended family relations of younger adults in the United States, accounting for variation across kinship types and racial/ethnic groups. Background Existing typologies of family relationships primarily focus on nuclear ties, often neglecting relations with extended kin. Ties to extended kin are, however, central to many people's lives and may be particularly salient in certa…
Intergenerational family life courses and wealth accumulation in Norway
While prior research has widely acknowledged the consequences of specific family transitions (e.g., parental death, parenthood, grandparenthood) for individual wealth holdings, the interplay of multiple family transitions and positions occurring at different life stages and in various orderings has received little attention. This is despite the fact that these transitions and positions most likely jointly shape wealth accumulation, both in the sh…
Life-course generational placements and health and wellbeing in later life
Previous research has demonstrated that family transitions, specifically births and deaths of preceding and following generations within families, are associated with individuals’ later-life wellbeing and health. However, lifecourse, family systems and role theories suggest that this relationship might be complex because, as individuals age, they can experience multiple such events and their effects might be interconnected. Therefore, this study …
Flexible Work Policies and the Division of Housework and Childcare in German Cohabiting Couples
Flexible working arrangements have become increasingly common and are considered a means to better reconcile paid and unpaid work. Therefore, the use of such measures can determine how couples divide their household and childcare tasks. While currently these tasks are dominantly female connotated, an increase in flexible work arrangements may contribute to a more gender-egalitarian distribution of unpaid work. However, empirical evidence on this …
Heterogeneity in Trajectories of Life Satisfaction After Reunification: The Role of Individual Resources and Life Stage in Former East Germany
For people living in the former East Germany, reunification with the former West Germany fundamentally transformed the sociopolitical system and most domains of everyday life. Previous research has revealed temporal shifts in average life satisfaction after reunification in the former East German population as a whole, but so far little is known about heterogeneity in patterns of adjustment within the population. Building on evidence of considera…
Geographic Proximity to Parents, Intergenerational Support Exchange, and Migration Within Germany
Previous research on internal migration has emphasised the importance of local ties to family members outside the household, and to parents in particular. Family members who live close to an individual’s place of residence represent a form of local social capital that could make migrating costlier, and therefore less likely. This idea has been empirically supported. Yet, how family ties bind remains largely unexplained. We assume that intergenera…
Relationship-Based Selective Participation of Secondary Respondents in a German Multi-Actor Panel Study
ObjectiveThis study investigates the extent to which participation of secondary respondents (SRs), here mothers, in a multi-actor study is cross-sectionally and longitudinally biased regarding relationship characteristics with the primary respondent (PR) of the same study.BackgroundFamily research emphasizes the importance of analyzing family relations over time and from the perspectives of several family members. Following the leverage-salience …
