Geographic proximity to grandparents and mothers’ paid work after childbirth
Grandparents often provide childcare, which can help foster mothers’ labour market participation. Most studies on this topic compare mothers who use grandparental care with those who do not, but this approach faces endogeneity issues: mothers’ labour force participation may itself drive the use of grandparental care. In this study we leverage data on geographic distance as a measure of potential grandparental availability to provide childcare, in…

The educational diffusion of divorce
ObjectiveThis study examines the educational diffusion of divorce in Europe and the role of women's decision-making therein.BackgroundAs the contextual barriers to divorce have lowered, the divorce rates of less-educated women have increased in many societies. Changes in divorce barriers are likely more pertinent to married women than to married men. However, no previous study has tested whether less-educated women increasingly take the initiativ…
The link between singlehood in young adulthood and effects of romantic separation
ObjectiveThis article aims to uncover long-term effects of singlehood after leaving home by examining whether individuals fare better after separation from their first cohabiting partner if they were not immediately coupled after leaving home.BackgroundSinglehood after leaving home offers young people the opportunity to invest in their development, and social and economic resources. From a life-course perspective, it is expected that these invest…
The educational gradient in young singlehood
Background: Universities are described as "waiting halls" for union formation. However, little is known about the size of the educational gradient in single living after leaving home. Objective: This paper examines the educational gradient in single living after leaving home in 30 European countries and the role of gender and the gender climate in each country for this gradient. Methods: I use data from the European Social Survey, supplemented wi…

Explaining cross‐national differences in leaving home
There are large cross-national differences in the age of leaving home. The literature offers cultural, economic, and institutional explanations for these differences but has not examined all three explanations in one study. We examine these three explanations using data of the European Social Survey (ESS) from 2002 to 2016, supplemented with year-specific macro-level indicators from other data sources. We use a dynamic pseudo-panel design, allowi…
Stepfamily Effects on Early Home‐Leaving
Objective This study examined the role of stepfamily experiences on early home‐leaving with detailed measures for stepfamily experiences that capture levels of closeness and conflict, and with a detailed measure for home‐leaving that captures pathways out of the home. Background Young adults raised in stepfamilies leave home and form unions earlier than young adults raised in single‐parent families. Little is known about the reasons for this diff…
The impact of student financial aid reforms on leaving home
To save costs, young adults may delay leaving the parental home in times of welfare cuts. However, although the impact of student financial aid reforms on educational decisions has received considerable attention in previous research, the impact on leaving home has not previously been studied. Using register data, this study investigates how recent student aid reforms in the Netherlands have impacted students' home‐leaving decisions. Event histor…
Leaving and Returning Home
ObjectiveThis study offers a new approach to off-time transitions and applies it to the link between leaving and returning home.BackgroundIt is no longer uncommon for young adults to return after having left the parental home. Previous research has mostly examined returning home in isolation from leaving home, although these two transitions are closely intertwined.MethodUsing longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study, the autho…
Family Structure and Early Home Leaving
An ample body of research has shown that young adults from non-intact families are more likely to leave the parental home at an early age than young adults from intact families. However, little is known about the mechanisms underlying this relationship. We drew on prospective longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel Study (SOEP) to examine why young adults from non-intact families are more likely to leave home early. Based on the fe…
