Progression towards psychosocial well-being in old age
The impact of the lives of successful people is ineffaceable. Their influence is passed on from generation to generation even after their death. The way they managed to face life’s challenges serves as a benchmark for people who want to approach late life the way they did. This study aims to develop a framework that would guide older adults to achieving a satisfactory late life through certain accomplishments at different stages of life. A deduct…

Does having highly educated adult children reduce mortality risks for parents with low educational attainment in Europe
It is known that the education of significant others may affect an individual's mortality. This paper extends an emerging body of research by investigating the effect of having highly educated adult children on the longevity of older parents in Europe, especially parents with low educational attainment. Using a sample of 15,015 individuals (6,620 fathers and 8,395 mothers) aged 50 and above, with 1,847 recorded deaths, over a mean follow-up perio…
Unpacking Summary Measures of Ethnic Residential Segregation Using an Age Group and Age Cohort Perspective
The residential segregation literature has underplayed the significance of age in shaping the ethnic compositions of neighbourhoods. This paper develops an age group and age cohort perspective as a way to unpack summary measures of residential segregation. Harmonised small area data for England and Wales (2001-2011) are used as a case study to explore the potential of this methodology for understanding better the role of age in the evolution of e…
The spatialities of ageing
With the proportion of older adults in Europe expected to grow significantly over the next few decades, a number of pertinent questions are raised about the socio-spatial processes that underlie residential age segregation, especially in circumstances wher

A New Immigration Regularization Policy
The topic of regularization of immigrants has occupied a position high on the agenda in Spain and elsewhere. In this paper, we contribute to this particular issue by providing an evaluative case study in Spain using administrative data from the Province of Barcelona from 2005 to 2009, which allows survival analysis, the follow-up of migrants’ trajectories after regularization and the examination of the hazard of lapsing back into irregularity. Ou…
Enhancing the Population Census
Ethnicity data from successive censuses are used to compare population change. This paper shows that such comparisons are often impossible, wrong or misleading. Distortions become more severe as the scale of areal units becomes smaller. The paper outlines the four main sources of confusion and applies solutions for England and Wales for 1991–2001: (1) classifications, including ethnic group and age, changed between censuses; (2) non-response vari…
