A wait perhaps worthwhile: The influence of China’s “cooling-off period” regulation on trends in divorce registration
This study examines the influence of a 30-day “cooling-off period” regulation on trends in divorce registration in China. It sheds light on this intervention’s impact on certain unobserved subjective factors—notably, impulsiveness—in divorce decision-making in China. The analysis employs province–quarter-level data on divorce registrations from the Ministry of Civil Affairs from 2018 to 2021 and further incorporates data from the National Bureau …
The interaction effects between depression and sleep status on asthma: A national cross-sectional study
Our study revealed distinct associations between depression, the severity of depressive symptoms, poor sleep quality, sleep disorders, and insufficient sleep with asthma. Additionally, there was an interaction between moderately severe depression and insufficient sleep on asthma. Psychological and sleep assessment are essential in asthma management. Clinicians should consider the potential risk of depression and sleep problems in asthma patients …
Flexible Working Arrangements and Fertility Intentions: A Survey Experiment in Singapore
This study examines how young, unmarried, working people’s fertility intention is shaped by future scenarios where flexible working arrangements (FWAs) are the default. The unmarried population remains to be an under-studied part of the working population at reproductive ages, who nevertheless becomes increasingly significant for fertility research due to rising ages at marriage and the first birth. Despite significant public anticipation regardi…
The doubly disadvantaged: The motherhood penalty for internal migrants in China
Objective This study examines hourly earnings differentials among internal migrants in urban China according to motherhood status and child coresidence. It also contemplates the potential mediation of family support and flexible work arrangements. Background Existing research has primarily studied the general population of working mothers, most of whom co‐reside with their children and enjoy access to childcare support from local institutions. Ou…
Trends in Educational Assortative Marriage in China Over the Past Century
In the past century, China has undergone rapid and dramatic social and economic changes. This article describes trends in educational assortative marriages of cohorts born in 1906–1995 in China. We measure educational attainment relatively as an individual's percentile position in the education distribution of a 10-year birth cohort and study trends using comparable, easy-to-interpret couple rank-rank correlations. We analyze microdata samples fr…
The Lasting Health Impact of Early-Life Chronic Poverty: Evidence from Starvation Experiences in Rural China
What enables the “meritocratic power” of a college degree? Changing labor market outcomes of first-generation college graduates in post-revolution China
Taking advantage of changes in college admissions and the labor market in post-revolution China, this study sheds light on the institutional conditions under which a college degree may “equalize” the influence of family educational background on labor market outcomes. We examine differences in the first job’s occupational attainment and economic returns between first-generation, second-generation, and non-college graduates. We compare birth cohor…
Gendered survival differentials of adopted children in northeast Japan, 1716–1870
Adoption was an important strategy for early-modern Japanese families to function and continue. This study is the first to systematically examine whether survival chances differ between adopted and non-adopted children and how gender moderates the survival differentials in historical Japan. We take advantage of individual-level panel data drawn from local household registers in northeast villages and towns between 1716 and 1870 consisting of 71,6…
Parental resources and child well-being in East Asia: An overview
The papers in this special issue use newly available panel data and data from the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) to examine linkages between parental resources and children’s outcomes in China, Japan, and Korea. Specific foci of the papers include regional differences, non-monetary resources, shadow education, gender differences, and the proximity of grandparents. Results demonstrate that, as in western societies, parental ed…
Household context and individual departure: The case of escape in three ‘unfree’ East Asian populations, 1700–1900
In the past, many people were 'unfree' in the sense that their movement was restricted, and out-migration without permission was regarded and recorded as 'escape.' Even though such escape was common in the past, historical studies mostly neglect this form of migration. This paper examines escape in historical East Asia, focusing on the influence of household context and individual characteristics on the chances of escape, taking advantage of larg…
