Introduction to the Special Issue: Beyond the child: disability, family life and inequality
This introduction frames child disability as a relational and socially embedded phenomenon whose consequences extend beyond children to parents, siblings, kin networks and household trajectories. Bringing together evidence from several European societies, the special issue moves beyond child-centred approaches to examine how disability reshapes family life through caregiving demands, time use, paid work, economic security, fertility and well-bein…
Partnership life courses and completed fertility in Spain
BACKGROUNDFertility in Spain has declined and shifted to later ages alongside diversification of family formation, raising questions about how partnership life courses shape completed fertility by late reproductive age. OBJECTIVEWe aim to assess how key features of partnership trajectories -timing, duration, and sequencing -relate to motherhood and parity by age 41 among women in contemporary Spain, and whether associations differ by education.an…
The parental care burden of child disability
Children with a disability require a greater level of care, which may profoundly affect the lives of their parents as their primary caregivers. However, empirical evidence to quantify the parental care burden of child disability remains scarce. This study aims to uncover the extent to which a child’s disability affects the parental care burden by investigating fathers’ and mothers’ time spent on housework and childcare. Exploiting data from the G…
Gender Role Attitudes and the Reproduction of Occupational Sex Segregation: An Analysis of Attitudes towards Women’s Voluntary Childlessness in Europe
This article contributes to the literature on gender role attitudes and the reproduction of occupational sex segregation by investigating how attitudes towards women’s voluntary childlessness relate to the embeddedness of individuals in sex-typed occupations. While previous studies have found that more favourable attitudes are more common among women than men, they have not established why this is so. We argue that the differing allocation of men…
Transition to grandparenthood and early retirement in midlife
This paper aims at capturing the interrelation between two life course transitions linking the generation of elderly parents and their adult children: (early) retirement and the transition to grandparenthood. We contribute to the broader literature on the life course which theorizes the presence of crucial interdependencies of life domains and between related individuals over time. Our interest lies in the extent to which parents’ retirement deci…
Sequence analysis: Its past, present, and future
This article marks the occasion of Social Science Research's 50th anniversary by reflecting on the progress of sequence analysis (SA) since its introduction into the social sciences four decades ago, with focuses on the developments of SA thus far in the social sciences and on its potential future directions. The application of SA in the social sciences, especially in life course research, has mushroomed in the last decade and a half. Using a lif…
Online and offline leisure, relatedness and psychological distress: A study of young people in Switzerland
Depression and psychological distress have high incidence rates among young people. Leisure is a known determinant of health and well-being and can help mitigate these phenomena through a variety of mechanisms. While it is known that sport and exercise provide benefits for neurological functioning, leisure has received less attention as a means of mobilising social networks and cultivating relatedness, a known factor protecting mental health. Fro…
Union formation under conditions of uncertainty: The objective and subjective sides of employment uncertainty
The link between economic forces and family dynamics has received renewed attention in the present era of heightened uncertainty. Economic uncertainty has usually been linked to unfavorable labor market circumstances, such as unemployment and short-term co
When partners' disagreement prevents childbearing: A couple-level analysis in Australia
Studies investigating the correspondence of birth intentions and birth outcomes focus mainly on womenâ s and menâ s intentions separately and disregard the fact that reproductive decision-making is dyadic
Life after death: Widowhood and volunteering gendered pathways among older adults
Spousal loss is one of the most traumatic events an individual can experience. Studies on behavioral changes before and after this event are scarce
Social and productive activities and health among partnered older adults: A couple-level analysis
The Heterogeneity of Disability Trajectories in Later Life: Dynamics of Activities of Daily Living Performance Among Nursing Home Residents
Objective: This study investigated the variability in activities of daily living (ADL) trajectories among 6,155 nursing home residents using unique and rich observational data. Method: The impairment in ADL performance was considered as a dynamic process in a multi-state framework. Using an innovative mixture model, such states were not defined a priori but inferred from the data. Results: The process of change in functional health differed among…
