Working-time flexibility among European couples
Mothers' Parenting Behaviours, Strain, Enjoyment and Subsequent Childbearing
Modern parenting is both emotionally costly and rewarding. It is also more intensive than before and requires significant time and effort, particularly from mothers. Emotional costs and benefits of children are important to fertility decisions, and they may be linked with a mother's parenting behaviours. Using a sample of 4402 partnered first-time mothers from the UK Household Longitudinal Study waves 1 to 9 (2009-2018), this study investigated t…
Two sides of a coin: The relationship between work autonomy and childbearing
ObjectiveThis article investigates the under-researched role of work autonomy, encompassing the control over how, when and where to work, for both the entry into parenthood and the transition to a second child across different social strata in the United Kingdom.BackgroundOver the past three decades, employees have gained increased work autonomy, a trend expected to persist with technological advancements. Work autonomy substantially affects the …
Home-based work and childbearing
We examine the timely yet greatly under-researched interplay between home-based work (HBW) and women's birth transitions. Past research has shown that HBW may facilitate and/or jeopardize work-family balance, depending on the worker's family and work circumstances. Following that research, we develop here a theoretical framework on how HBW can facilitate or hinder fertility. Using the UK Household Longitudinal Study 2009-19 and random-effects clo…
Working from Home During Covid-19 Pandemic and Changes to Fertility Intentions Among Parents
The Covid-19 pandemic and related massive spread of home based work led to substantial changes in the conditions for combining work and childbearing. On the one hand, working from home helped parents to accommodate increased childcare needs during the pandemic. On the other hand, it led to acute experiences of blurred boundaries between work and family life during childcare and school closures. Therefore, the direction of the impact of working fr…
Maternal Free Time: A Missing Element in Fertility Studies
Studies on mothers' time allocation and fertility have predominantly accentuated the importance of paid work for fertility decisions and, in consequence, of policies that allow combining paid work and family life. In this view, work time is typically seen as the time taken away from the family and vice versa. This paradigm does not recognize that mothers may need time for rest and leisure, and that rest and leisure time should be separate from bo…
Partners’ empowerment and fertility in ten European countries
This study aims to investigate the relationship between couples' reproductive behaviour and the division of power between partners in different country-specific contexts
Childlessness and fertility by couples' educational gender (in)equality in Austria, Bulgaria, and France
In modern, highly developed countries the association between education and fertility seems to be equivocal: A negative influence of education mainly applies to women, while among men the correlation is often positive or negligible. Although the gender dif
Are daughters' childbearing intentions related to their mothers' socio-economic status
Unlike actual fertility, fertility intentions are often found to be positively correlated with education. The literature explaining this paradox is scarce
