Who aligns cultural behavior in response to signals from which cultural intermediaries?. • Using Danish registry data, I compare loans of library books before and after an award/review. • Awards and reviews significantly increase the subsequent loan of books. • Cultural legitimacy does not increase the impact of signals from cultural intermediaries. • The effect is strongest among individuals with high levels of cultural capital. • The cultural e…
How are cultural tastes stratified? Evidence from library borrowing for the entire population of Denmark
Research shows that cultural tastes are socially stratified. Yet, most of this research relies on small-sample surveys and includes only a few dimensions of stratification. To address these limitations, we analyse registry data on library borrowing for the entire adult population of Denmark and consider four dimensions of social stratification: wealth, education, income, and occupation. We find considerable social stratification in library borrow…
From unequal injuries to unequal learning? Socioeconomic gradients in childhood concussions and the impact on children's academic performance
Previous research identifies stark socioeconomic disparities in child injuries, yet research on the repercussions hereof on other aspects of children's lives remains sparse. This paper tests whether social gradients in minor traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs or concussions) contribute to corresponding inequalities in children's academic performance. Previous research on this topic is mostly based on small samples and confounded by non-random select…
No substitute for the real thing? Physical and digital cultural participation in Denmark during the Covid-19 pandemic
In this research note, we analyze the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cultural participation. We use rich survey data from Denmark to construct pooled time-series cross-sectional data for each month of the years 2019-2021 and report three findings. First, participation in physical cultural activities (e.g. attending a concert or a museum) plummeted during two lockdowns and did not return to its pre-pandemic level by the end of 2021. Second, pa…
Stratification in parents’ selection of developmentally appropriate books for children
This paper studies socioeconomic gradients in parents' selection of developmentally appropriate children's books from public libraries. I draw on developmental gradients research to hypothesize that families with high socioeconomic status (SES) select a higher share of books that match children's developmental stage in order to best improve children's learning environments. Based on Danish registry data on all books borrowed from public libraries…
Cultural Inputs and Accumulating Inequality in Children's Reading
Previous research shows that children from socioeconomically advantaged families read more than children from less advantaged homes. This article studies how inequality in the amount that children read accumulates across childhood and the extent to which this inequality depends on the cultural inputs parents provide. Additionally, the article studies whether children's or parents' cognitive ability moderates the effect of cultural inputs. Based o…
