Family structure and policy contexts: Implications for tertiary education attainment in 25 European countries
This study examines how institutional contexts in 25 European countries moderate the association between family structure and tertiary education attainment. Previous research has proposed the resource deprivation perspective to explain lower educational outcomes among children from disrupted families, suggesting that policies addressing resource deprivation could mitigate these negative consequences. However, limited attention has been given to t…
How does a poor labour market affect inequalities in access to postsecondary education? Empirical evidence from 31 affluent countries
This study examines how macroeconomic conditions affect inequality of educational opportunity. Using longitudinal data from 30 European countries and the USA, we study the effect of changing unemployment rates on the extent of social inequality in postsecondary transitions in the period (2004-2016), which includes the Great Recession. The findings from multilevel models with country fixed effects show that rising unemployment rates tend to increa…
Parental job loss and the role of unemployment duration and income changes for children's education
This article studies the impact of parental job loss, subsequent unemployment duration, and income changes on the results of the final exam in lower secondary education and on the decision to pursue an academic track in Denmark. Drawing on administrative register data we use sibling fixed effects models as well as a before-after-test design to investigate the shorter-term effects of parental job loss. The results show that there are hardly any ef…
Parental Unemployment and the Transition into Tertiary Education: Can Institutions Moderate the Adverse Effects
We examine how parental unemployment affects children’s transition to postsecondary education in different institutional contexts. Drawing on theoretical perspectives in intergenerational mobility research and sociology of higher education, we estimate the extent to which these intergenerational effects depend on social and education policies. We use data from five longitudinal surveys to analyze the effects of parental unemployment on entry to p…
How Labor-Market Integration Affects Perceptions of Discrimination: School-to-Apprenticeship Transitions of Youth with Migration Background in Germany
This article examines the relationship between structural integration and perceived discrimination among young people with migration backgrounds in Germany. Assimilation theories expect ethnic boundaries to lessen through minority groups’ upward mobility, while the recently proposed integration paradox asserts that structural integration increases perceptions of discrimination. Using longitudinal data from the German National Educational Panel St…
The intergenerational effects of unemployment: How parental unemployment affects educational transitions in Germany
This paper studies the intergenerational effects of parental unemployment on students’ post-secondary transitions. Besides estimating the average treatment effect of parental unemployment on transition outcomes, we identify the economic, psychological or other intra-familial mechanisms that might explain any adverse impact of parental unemployment. Using longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel and propensity score matching estimato…
Parental Unemployment and the Transition to Vocational Training in Germany: Interaction of Household and Regional Sources of Disadvantage
We examine the impact of parental unemployment and regional labour market conditions on the probability of a successful transition from non-academic secondary schooling to vocational training in Germany, using data from the National Educational Panel Study and multilevel logistic regression models. Although widely regarded as a low-cost, low-risk and high-gain vocational path, we nevertheless find a clear negative effect of parental unemployment …
Contextual effects on subjective social position: Evidence from European countries
This study investigated subjective social position in 21 European countries using data from the social inequality module of the International Social Survey Programme 2009. Subjective social position shows people’s self-location in a social hierarchy. Most studies on subjective social position have typically involved a few countries and neglected the role of national educational and occupational structures. We hypothesise that these characteristic…
The Effects of Ethnicity, Language Skills, and Spatial Segregation on Labour Market Entry Success in Estonia
This article studies jointly the effects of ethnicity and proficiency in host country and minority languages for labour market entry in areas with different ethnic concentrations. The focus is on Estonian ethnic majority and Russian-speaking minorities in three Estonian regions with varying ethnic concentrations. Data from Estonian Labour Force Surveys (2002–2011) are used to compare the duration of unemployment before finding the first job and t…
The Role of Language Resources in Labour Market Entry: Comparing Estonia and Ukraine
This paper explores how language proficiency influences the dynamics of labour market entry among young Russians and the native populations in two former Soviet Republics—Estonia and Ukraine. We use data from the Estonian TIES survey and the Youth Transition Survey in Ukraine to compare the speed of finding any first job with that of entry to the first higher-status employment requiring good communication skills, thus revealing the role of langua…
Ethnic inequalities in education: Second-generation Russians in Estonia
n This paper investigates ethnic educational inequality in Estonia focusing on second generation Russians. In Estonia, contrary to many other European countries, the overall educational attainment of second generation immigrants has, compared to their parents, diverged from the educational attainment of the native population. Our results from logistic regression analysis indicate that the odds of Russians continuing in general secondary and highe…
The Impact of Objective Characteristics on Subjective Social Position
The aim of this article is to find out what constitute the important objective basis of the subjectively identified social position. The article examines what kind of resources impact people's opinion of their social position in society. The main question is whether the subjective position of Estonian inhabitants in social hierarchy are influenced by age, income, level of education, status on the labour market, gender and ethnicity. The focus of …
