How Perceived Job Insecurity, Voluntary Unemployment and Involuntary Job Loss Shape Couples’ Life Satisfaction
To adequately examine the impact of job insecurity and unemployment on life satisfaction in the context of increasing de-standardisation of work arrangements, this study distinguishes nuanced forms of perceived job insecurity and unemployment and integrates them into a single scale for employment instability. These forms comprise (1) no perceived job insecurity, (2) some or (3) severe job insecurity, (4) voluntary unemployment, (5) involuntary un…
Sleeping With the Enemy: Partners’ Heterogamy by Political Preferences and Union Dissolution. Evidence From the United Kingdom
We examine whether union dissolution is associated with partners’ (mis)match on political preferences, defined as self-reported closeness, intention to vote, or reported vote for a specific party. Previous studies have shown that partners’ heterogamy by ethnicity, education, and other dimensions increases the risk of union dissolution because of differences between partners in lifestyles, attitudes, and beliefs or because of disapproval from fami…
Couples' Subjective Well-Being Around Live Birth and Pregnancy Loss
This study examines the trajectories of subjective well-being (SWB) of women and their partners transitioning to parenthood or remaining childless after experiencing pregnancy loss in the United Kingdom.Childbearing is generally associated with short-term improvements in women's and men's SWB. However, less is known about couples' well-being dynamics before and after pregnancies ending in losses, despite 10-20 percent of the pregnancies that occu…
The partnership context of first parenthood - and how it varies by parental class and birth cohort in the United Kingdom
BACKGROUNDFamily background strongly shapes when and how people have their first child, with potential consequences for inequality.In the United Kingdom, non-marital births have risen, yet little is known about how parental class drives these patterns. OBJECTIVEThis study investigates how parental occupational class influences first-time parenthood within marriage or cohabitation, or outside any union.It further examines changes in these relation…
Job separation and well-being in couples' perspective in the United Kingdom
The consequences of job uncertainty on well-being are widely known. Yet not all types of job separation might be equally detrimental: the level of expectedness and voluntariness of job ends may shape the consequences on workers and their partners. This article explores the associations of four types of job termination with well-being in a couple's perspective. Combining two British longitudinal surveys (1991-2021) (N ∼ 13,000 couples), the analys…
How much his or her job loss influences fertility: A couple approach
Objective We analyze the effect of job loss on couple's fertility within 5 years, in the United Kingdom and Germany. We contribute to the literature by assessing to what extent a man's and a woman's job loss is consequential. Further, we study the effects based on couples' income, earnings division between partners, parental status, and women's age. Background A job loss may decrease the couple's fertility as a drop in resources reduces parents' …
The Intergenerational Transmission of Family Dissolution: How it Varies by Social Class Origin and Birth Cohort
Children from separated parents are more likely to also experience the dissolution of their own union. For many children, parental separation thus is an adverse life course event that follows them into adulthood. We examine whether parents’ social class mitigates this adversity and weakens the intergenerational transmission of family dissolution for children from advantaged class origins. This is the case if separated parents with more resources …
Repartnering of women in the United States: The interplay between motherhood and socio-economic status
We examine the socio-economic differentials in mothers’ and non-mothers’ repartnering behaviours following the dissolution of a co-residential (marital or cohabiting) union. Based on five waves of the National Survey of Family Growth (N = 11,479), we use discrete-time event history models, jointly modelling exit from a partnership and entry into a new union. Few differences are found for entry into direct marriage, which is a rarely observed even…
The effect of unemployment on couples separating in Germany and the UK
Objective This article examines how unemployment affects the separation risk of heterosexual coresiding couples, depending on couples' household income and whether men or women become unemployed. Background Unemployment may decrease the separation risk as a drop in resources makes separation more costly—or it may increase the separation risk if unemployment creates stress and reduces the quality of couple relations. Moreover, unemployment may be …
No Stratified Effect of Unemployment on Incomes: How the Market, State, and Household Compensate for Income Loss in the United Kingdom and Switzerland
Unemployment is a critical life event that may affect the income trajectories of displaced workers very unequally. It may lead to cumulative disadvantage and hit vulnerable groups hardest. Alternatively, it may level the playing field because higher classes have more to lose. We analyse heterogeneous effects of unemployment on income for the United Kingdom and Switzerland, using two household panels-Understanding Society 2009-2017 and the Swiss H…
Gender Gap in Repartnering: The Role of Parental Status and Custodial Arrangements
Objective: This study assesses whether parenthood influences repartnering for women and men and explores how repartnering is associated with parental status of the prospective partners.Background: Previous research has not demonstrated whether gender differences in repartnering are conditional on the presence of children. This study aims to better disentangle the specific gender differentials in repartnering probabilities conditional on parenthoo…
