Masturbation Trajectories from Late Adolescence into Mid-Adulthood: A Population-Based Longitudinal Study
Masturbation with its numerous health benefits is an integral aspect of most people's sexuality and is typically observed across all stages of life. However, longitudinal studies exploring the frequencies of masturbation across major life phases are lacking. We examined the development of masturbation frequencies from ages 19-50 via multilevel growth curve modeling with a longitudinal population-based sample of 2,562 individuals. For women, mastu…
The nature of the relation between mental well-being and ill-being
The social gradients in mental health and psychosocial well-being from adolescence to midlife and the mediating role of parenting practices: A National Cohort Study
Research investigating social inequalities in mental health and well-being across the life course is scarce. Moreover, a comprehensive examination of underlying pathways linking early life disadvantage to subsequent mental health inequalities is needed. This nationally representative prospective cohort study in Norway followed 3072 individuals from adolescence (mean age 15 years, 1992) to midlife (43 years, 2020). Using latent growth curve modeli…
Adolescent work values and adult attainment in key social domains two decades later: Evidence from a population-based longitudinal study of Norwegian men and women
Adolescence is a crucial period for the formation of work values, which are strongly linked to young people’s educational and occupational choices. However, longitudinal studies that systematically explore interlinkages between adolescent work values and attainment in other relevant domains of adult life are scarce. This study addresses this gap by using longitudinal survey data from the Young in Norway panel (N = 1,527) linked to administrative …
Making the Whole Greater than the Sum of its Parts: Taxonomy development as a site of negotiation and compromise in an interdisciplinary software development project
This paper describes the experience of a group of interdisciplinary researchers and research professionals involved in the PROgressive VIsual DEcision-making in Digital Humanities (PROVIDEDH) project, a four-year project funded within the CHIST-ERA call 2016 for the topic Visual Analytics for Decision Making under Uncertainty — VADMU. It contributes to the academic literature on how digital methods can enhance interdisciplinary cooperative work b…
Twenty Years of Job Quality in OECD Countries: More Good News
How subcultures emerge
Sympatric speciation is typically presented as a rare phenomenon, but urban subcultures frequently emerge even in the absence of geographic isolation. Is there perhaps something that culture has but biological inheritance does not that would account for this difference? We present a novel model that combines assortative interaction and multidimensional inheritance. Our computer simulations show that assortment alone can lead to the formation of c…

The Work Ethic and Social Change in the Czech Republic and Slovakia - A Modernisation Theory Perspective
The article investigates long-term trends in the work ethic in the Czech Republic and Slovakia from the perspective of modernisation theory. In particular, it examines whether the work ethic in the two culturally similar societies decreased during the years of growing material prosperity and whether this trend originated in intergenerational population replacement. The study uses data from three pooled waves of the European Values Study (EVS) cov…
What Matters in a Job? A Multi-Level Study of Job Preference Orientations and the Intrinsic Quality of Work in 25 Societies
This paper examines cross-national differences in job preference orientations from the perspective of job quality. In particular, it investigates the extent to which preferences of workers in 25 developed societies are shaped by the intrinsic quality of jobs and its institutional determinants, as highlighted by varieties of capitalism (VoC) and power resources theory (PRT). The study uses multi-level models with country-specific random intercepts…
Cultural productivism and public support for the universal basic income from a cross-national perspective
It has been hypothesized that the capacity of universal basic income (UBI) to attract wider public support is impaired by the strength of productivist cultural norms and values, common to the majority of develope societies. The paper contributes to literature on attitudes towards UBI by empirically investigating this hypothesis from a multi-level cross-national perspective, using the European Social Survey (ESS) Round 8 data on UBI support for 23…
