Beyond the degree: Horizontal stratification in higher education and gendered family formation in South Korea
Unequal Time Transfers: Between‐Sibling Inequality in Older Parents' Childcare Support in Korea
Objective This study investigates within‐family inequalities among adult children regarding their likelihood of receiving childcare support from older parents in South Korea. Background Older parents' childcare support is widespread and serves as a crucial resource for adult children with childcare responsibilities. Despite its importance, there has been limited research on the distribution of such parental time resources among adult children wit…
Does it matter where you’re from? Geographical variation in social mobility in Britain
There is increasing interest among sociologists in geographical, or regional, variation in intergenerational mobility. The most important questions in studying this topic are, first, whether, and how much, variation there is between regions, and to what extent this is due to characteristics of places themselves, and how far to sorting or compositional differences—that is, to the spatial distribution of relevant individual and family variables. We…
A long view of social mobility in Scotland and the role of economic changes
Changes in the social mobility of men in Scotland between the late-19th and the late-twentieth century are examined using new individual-level data from nineteenth-century censuses, linking records of men aged 0-19 in 1871 to their records in 1901, and then comparing their patterns with the social mobility of men aged 30-49 in 1974 and in 2001 as recorded in social surveys at these dates. The extent of social mobility in the nineteenth century wa…
Decomposing sibling correlations: A New Measure of Group-Specific Intergenerational Persistence in Socioeconomic Outcomes
We introduce a novel approach for decomposing sibling correlations in socioeconomic attainment into group-specific components. These groups are defined at the family level, based on factors such as parental income, marital status, race, or the gender composition of siblings. Unlike existing studies that compare sibling correlations across different groups, our method accounts for differences in average outcomes between groups in the overall outco…
Regional variation in intergenerational social mobility in Britain
We present the first comprehensive set of estimates of variation in intergenerational social mobility across regions of Great Britain using data from the UK Labour Force Survey. Unlike the Social Mobility Index produced by the Social Mobility Commission, we focus directly on variation in measures of intergenerational social class mobility between the regions in which individuals were brought up. We define regions using the NUTS classification and…
Paradoxes of social mobility in London
We analyse social mobility in London and seek to address two paradoxes. Among people living in London, relative mobility, or social fluidity, appears to be remarkably low when compared with other regions of Great Britain. But social fluidity among people who were brought up in London is similar to that of people brought up elsewhere in Britain. This is our first paradox. Furthermore, it is widely held that social fluidity is higher among people w…
Social Origin and Access to Top Occupations among the Highest Educated in the United Kingdom
U.S. studies have found that stratified graduate education accounts for most of the relatively strong intergenerational socioeconomic association among postgraduate degree holders. The same association has been observed, but not explained, in countries with higher education systems that differ from that of the United States. We explore the mediation role of undergraduate- and graduate-level stratification in accounting for the intergenerational o…
