The "Sandwich Generation" Revisited
Generational overlap affects the care time demands on parents and grandparents worldwide. Here, we present the first global estimates of the experience of simultaneously having frail older parents and young children ("sandwichness") or young grandchildren ("grandsandwichness") for the 1970-2040 cohorts, using demographic methods and microsimulations. We find that sandwichness is more prevalent in the Global South-for example, almost twice as prev…
A fish stinks from the head
Demographic analysis clarifies political issues in the collapse of Yugoslavia. In most regions, 1961-1991, ethnic diversity (estimated by informational entropy) increased and segregation (estimated by Theilâ s H) decreased. In a few regions there was a
Non‐parametric hedonic housing prices
The hedonic price function has long been a standard tool for modeling the price of complex commodities, such as housing. The theoretical basis of the model is sound and appealing, but applications often encounter difficulties. The results of hedonic models depend on inclusion of the right independent variables and the correct specification of the functional form. The functional form assumption is particularly difficult in the housing context beca…
