  • Subjective Inequity Aversion: How Perceived Unfair Inequality Affects Subjective Well-being

    Open AccessSandra Bohmann, Fabian KalleitnerARTICLEJournal of Happiness Studies2026

    Combining theoretical insights from social justice literature and social comparison research, this paper argues that subjective perceptions of inequity (i.e., unfairness), rather than objective deviations from equality, are key to understanding the relationship between (in)equality and subjective well-being. To test this hypothesis, we analyze the association between respondents’ perceived fairness of own, top, and bottom incomes with subjective …

  • Visualizing Age-Specific Digital Platform Usage in Germany

    Open AccessLicia Bobzien, Roland Verwiebe et al.ARTICLESocius Sociological Research for…2025References: 3

    This visualization explores age-specific digital platform use among the German population, aged 18 to 74 years, using data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Innovation Sample. Focusing on time spent on social media, we show that nearly everyone uses digital platforms on a regular basis, with younger users spending significantly more time online. Moreover, YouTube is quite popular across all age groups, while younger users spend more time on pl…

  • How much for whom? Explaining preferences for welfare benefits to short-time workers and the unemployed

    Open AccessFabian Kalleitner, Lukas Schlogl et al.ARTICLEJournal of European Social Policy2024References: 22

    In response to labour-market crises, governments routinely adopt ‘short-time’ work schemes which supplement the incomes of workers who might otherwise be laid off. Such schemes increase the number of welfare recipients but could also lead to increased competition among different types of welfare claimants. We draw on data from an online panel survey fielded in Austria during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020–2022) to study individual preferences for fi…

  • Taxed fairly? How differences in perception shape attitudes towards progressive taxation

    Open AccessFabian Kalleitner, Licia BobzienARTICLEEuropean Sociological Review2024Cited by: 4References: 51

    Empirically, the poor are more likely to support increases in the level of tax progressivity than the rich. Such income-stratified tax preferences can result from differences in preferences of what should be taxed as argued by previous literature. However, it may also result from income-stratified perceptions of what is taxed. This paper argues that the rich perceive higher levels of tax progressivity than the poor and that tax perceptions affect…

  • The Inequity Z: Income Fairness Perceptions in Europe across the Income Distribution

    Open AccessFabian Kalleitner, Sandra BohmannARTICLESocius Sociological Research for…2023References: 1

    Using data from the European Social Survey, we examine income fairness evaluations of 17,605 respondents from 28 countries. Respondents evaluated the fairness of their own incomes as well as the fairness of the incomes of the top and bottom income deciles in their countries. Depicted on a single graph, these income fairness evaluations take on a Z-shaped form, which we call the “inequity Z”. The inequity Z reveals an extensive level of consensus …

  • Varieties of Mobility Measures: Comparing Survey and Mobile Phone Data during the Covid-19 Pandemic

    Open AccessFabian Kalleitner, David W Schiestl et al.ARTICLEPublic Opinion Quarterly2023Cited by: 2References: 34

    Human mobility has become a major variable of interest during the COVID-19 pandemic and central to policy decisions all around the world. To measure individual mobility, research relies on a variety of indicators that commonly stem from two main data sources: survey self-reports and behavioral mobility data from mobile phones. However, little is known about how mobility from survey self-reports relates to popular mobility estimates using data fro…

  • Scarring Dreams? Young People’s Vocational Aspirations and Expectations During and After Unemployment

    Open AccessMonika Mühlböck, Fabian Kalleitner et al.ARTICLESocial Inclusion2022Cited by: 2References: 16

    Young people’s early‐career unemployment experience has been found to have long‐lasting effects, resulting in lower earnings even decades later. However, while this so‐called “scarring effect” is well established, there is still little knowledge about the mechanisms through which it comes about. We take a closer look at the period that produces the wounds that later turn to scars. Drawing on a panel survey in which young adults in Austria were in…

  • Information, reflection, and successful job search: A labor market policy experiment

    Open AccessMonika Mühlböck, Fabian Kalleitner et al.ARTICLESocial Policy and Administration2022References: 54

    Jobseekers, especially young people with little experience on the job market, face several challenges. They need to know which jobs are suited for them, where to find them, how to apply, and they need resilience in the face of repeated rejections. Previous research has shown that receiving information and reflecting on how to search for a job enhance self‐efficacy and search motivation, thereby reducing the duration of unemployment spells. Follow…

  • The Austrian Corona Panel Project: Monitoring individual and societal dynamics amidst the Covid-19 crisis

    Open AccessB Kittel, Sylvia Kritzinger et al.ARTICLEEuropean Political Science2020Cited by: 18References: 9

    Systematic and openly accessible data are vital to the scientific understanding of the social, political, and economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. This article introduces the Austrian Corona Panel Project (ACPP), which has generated a unique, publicly available data set from late March 2020 onwards. ACPP has been designed to capture the social, political, and economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis on the Austrian population on a weekly…

  • What’s the Benefit of a Video? The Effect of Nonmaterial Incentives on Response Rate and Bias in Web Surveys

    Open AccessFabian Kalleitner, Monika Mühlböck et al.ARTICLESocial Science Computer Review2020Cited by: 1References: 14

    Traditional survey research faces declining response rates due to changing cultural habits and technological developments. Researchers have developed novel approaches to increase respondents’ likelihood of participating in web surveys. However, we lack information about whether these methods indeed increase response rates and, if so, whether they bias the resulting data. This article focuses on the use of nonmaterial incentives in the form of a v…

  • The Transmission of Work Centrality within the Family in a Cross-Regional Perspective

    Open AccessB Kittel, Fabian Kalleitner et al.ARTICLEThe Annals of the American…2019Cited by: 2References: 50

    Young adults' work values evolve as they are socialized into education and work. We study a core concept of work values, work centrality, and distinguish between an extrinsic dimension, that is, the relative importance of work; and an intrinsic dimension, that is, nonfinancial employment commitment. Using data collected by the CUPESSE project on two generations of families in nine European countries, we explore the congruence of work values betwe…
