First-time homeownership across immigrant groups and generations in Sweden
Homeownership is an important indicator of immigrant incorporation. Using administrative data from Sweden (1997–2016), we investigated entry into first-time homeownership across immigrant groups and generations. We differentiated between immigrants arriving as adults (1 G) and children (1.5 G) and between descendants of immigrants with two (2 G) and one (2.5 G) foreign-born parent(s). Immigrants from sub-Saharan Africa showed the lowest propensit…
Residential Mobility and Housing Tenure Among Immigrants and Their Descendants
Understanding the housing and residential mobility of migrant populations is crucial to facilitate their integration into host societies. Yet, little is known about their experiences across generations, origin groups, and country contexts. This study investigates residential mobility and housing changes among immigrants and their descendants in five European countries (United Kingdom, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Sweden) with different housi…
In-utero exposure to PM2.5 and adverse birth outcomes in India
This study investigates the influence of air quality on birth weight and preterm birth. Utilizing data from the national family health survey and raster images, the study employs various statistical analyses and spatial models to elucidate the connection between in-utero exposure to air pollution and birth outcomes, both at the individual and district levels. It was observed that approximately 13% of children were born prematurely, and 17% were b…
Immigrant and Refugee Mobility Across the Urban–Rural Continuum in Three European Countries
International migration has historically been an urban phenomenon. Despite the increasing presence of immigrants in non-urban areas and political initiatives aimed at regionalization, research in Europe continues to exhibit a pronounced urban analytical bias. This paper examines the geographies of immigrant and refugee settlement along the urban–rural continuum in Sweden, Germany, and Switzerland. Using (multistate) event history models, we first…
Treatment seeking behaviours, antibiotic use and relationships to multi-drug resistance
Antibacterial resistance (ABR) is a major public health threat. An important accelerating factor is treatment-seeking behaviour, including inappropriate antibiotic (AB) use. In many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) this includes taking ABs with and without prescription sourced from various providers, including health facilities and community drug sellers. However, investigations of complex treatment-seeking, AB use and drug resistance in …
The spatial–temporal effect of air pollution on individuals’ reported health and its variation by ethnic groups in the United Kingdom
Using longitudinal data on individuals' health linked with air pollution data at two geographical scales (local authorities and LSOAs), this study supports the presence of a spatial-temporal association between air pollution and poor self-reported health, which is stronger for ethnic minorities and foreign-born individuals in the UK, partly explained by location-specific differences. Air pollution mitigation is necessary to improve individuals' h…
