Purpose – This paper aims to analyze the welfare use of Turkish immigrants and natives in Germany.

Well-Being over the Life Span
This paper applies semiparametric regression models using penalized splines to investigate the profile of well-being over the life span.

The evidence suggests that the U-shaped…
