  • Instability in Post‐Divorce Residence Arrangements and Child Difficulties

    Open Access•M D Bron, Anne‐rigt Poortman•ARTICLE•Journal of Marriage and the Family•2026

    Objective This study examines the instability in post‐divorce child residence arrangements over a 10‐year period and its impact on children's socioemotional difficulties.

Few studies have analyzed these relationships over time or across countries, and none have systematically analyzed whether …

  • Parental Education and Family Dissolution: A Cross-National and Cohort Comparison

    Open Access•M D Bron, J Harkonen•ARTICLE•Journal of Marriage and the Family•2018•Cited by: 4•References: 46

    This is the first study to systematically analyze whether the association between parental education and family dissolution varies cross-nationally and over time. The authors use meta-analytic tools to study cross-national variation between 17 countries with data from the Generations and Gender Study and Harmonized Histories. The association shows considerable cross-national variation, but is positive in most countries. The association between pa…

  • Parental Socio-Economic Status and First Union Formation: Can European Variation Be Explained by the Second Demographic Transition Theory

    Open Access•M D Bron, Aart C Liefbroer et al.•ARTICLE•European Sociological Review•2017•Cited by: 18•References: 34

    Previous research has demonstrated that parental socio-economic status (SES) is an important determinant of the timing of entry into a first co-residential union. Whilst the majority of existing studies found that young adults from high-SES families delay their first union compared with those from lower-SES backgrounds, all these studies were conducted within a single country. This study examines the link between parental SES and the timing and t…
