“Be Mothers as if we Were not Workers, Be Workers as if we Were not Mothers”
Parenthood challenges work–life balance, particularly where traditional gender norms persist. Despite policy advancements, disparities in income and career progression remain, with mothers disproportionately assuming childcare and household responsibilities. This study explored the impact of parenthood on professional and personal life through thirty semi-structured interviews with Portuguese mothers and fathers living in Portugal and seven other…
Pandemic response during the 1918 influenza pandemic
This study investigates the relationship between non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs) and influenza morbidity during the 1918 pandemic, with a focus on urban and rural medical districts in Norway. By integrating published secondary statistical data from 1918 from Statistics Norway with primary medical records from the Norwegian National Archive, the paper offers a novel historical data set to explore the timing and frequency of NPIs in relatio…
Global excess tuberculosis mortality during Covid-19
This study presents a systematic, model-based analysis of global excess TB mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing disparities in pandemic response impacts across countries. The findings highlight the need for integrated and resilient public health systems capable of maintaining essential services amid global crises. Our methodology can support real-time monitoring of collateral effects of pandemics on endemic diseases and guide strat…
I Would Advise That It Be Kept from the Schools at All Cost
In this article, the authors investigate the 1918-20 influenza pandemic in the federal government's nonreservation Indian boarding schools. Nonreservation boarding schools, which served approximately 6,200 Indigenous youths in 1919, provide a particularly fruitful terrain for analysis due to the detailed records, reports, and correspondence they shared with the Indian Office before, during, and after the pandemic. This rich source base offers a r…
Drivers and barriers of seasonal influenza vaccination 2015/16 & 2019/20 to 2022/23 - a survey on why most Norwegians don’t get the flu vaccine
The general population and RGs cite protection against influenza as their primary incentive for vaccination, while HCWs mainly refer to their professional role or workplace vaccination. For non-vaccination we see a similar pattern in all groups, with "no need" and "no specific reason" as the main reasons. Of note, worry about side effects and vaccine refusal is as frequent among HCWs as in other groups. Continued efforts to maintain and increase …
Comparative analysis of Covid-19 diagnoses and mortality among hospitalized indigenous and non-indigenous populations in Chile
Although Indigenous populations initially showed lower odds of COVID-19 diagnosis and mortality, a marked rise in diagnosis odds among these groups in 2021 underscores the urgency of targeted interventions. The observed negative association between the proportion of Indigenous populations and vaccination rates further underscores the necessity to tackle vaccine access barriers and work towards equitable distribution
Disparities in the offer of Covid-19 vaccination to migrants and non-migrants in Norway
Results were consistent with studies that show disparities between non-migrants and migrants in actual vaccine uptake. While differences in receiving an offer cannot fully explain disparities in vaccination rates, our analyses suggest that receiving, or recognizing and understanding, an offer does play a role. Issues related to duration of residence, such as inclusion in population and health registries and health and digital literacy, should be …
Social Disparities in Adopting Non-pharmaceutical Interventions During Covid-19 in Norway
In the absence of vaccines to fight the COVID-19 pandemic, in 2020 governments had to respond by rely on non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs). Socioeconomic inequalities likely influenced the uptake of NPIs. Using Norwegian survey data, we study whether income was associated with increased handwashing, keeping 1 m distance, using facemasks increased use of home office, and less use of public transportation. Except for using facemasks and less …

Not the great equalizers
Despite common perceptions to the contrary, pandemic diseases do not affect populations indiscriminately. In this paper, we review literature produced by demographers, historians, epidemiologists, and other researchers on disparities during the 1918-20 influenza pandemic and the Covid-19 pandemic. Evidence from these studies demonstrates that lower socio-economic status and minority/stigmatized race or ethnicity are associated with higher morbidi…
On the Willingness to Report and the Consequences of Reporting Research Misconduct
While attention to research integrity has been growing over the past decades, the processes of signalling and denouncing cases of research misconduct remain largely unstudied. In this article, we develop a theoretically and empirically informed understanding of the causes and consequences of reporting research misconduct in terms of power relations. We study the reporting process based on a multinational survey at eight European universities (N =…
Are You Moving Up or Falling Short? An Inquiry of Skills-based Variation in Self-perceived Employability among Norwegian Employees
This article investigates how educational level, job-related skills and employers’ support for competence development jointly determine Norwegian employees’ expectations of maintaining employment and career advancement. The data were collected in 2010 and 2013, and they comprise a representative sample of Norwegian employees. In contrast to previous research on self-perceived employability, this study divides expectations of advancement and conti…

Influenza-Associated Mortality during the 1918-1919 Influenza Pandemic in Alaska and Labrador
Some of the most severely affected communities in the world during the 1918-19 influenza pandemic were in Labrador and Alaska. Although these two regions are on the opposite ends of North America, a cultural continuum in the Inuit populations extends throughout the North American Arctic. Both regions contain other population groups, however, and because of these similarities and differences, a comparison of their experiences during the pandemic p…

Cocirculating Epidemics, Chronic Health Problems, and Social Conditions in Early 20th Century Labrador and Alaska
Analyses of mortality in Alaska and Labrador during the 1918 influenza pandemic indicate that influenza itself was only one of several factors influencing mortality in different communities. We discuss the added impact of exposure to influenza prior to the major waves of the pandemic in 1918 and cocirculation of other acute infectious diseases, including pneumonia, smallpox, and measles; chronic conditions such as nutritional deficiencies and tub…
The Association Between Marital Status and Psychological Well-being in Norway
This study uses a Norwegian nationally representative survey to examine whether cohabitants exhibit lower levels of psychological well-being than their married counterparts in a context where cohabitation is claimed to be largely indistinguishable from marriage. Six indicators of mental health are considered, and all adult ages and marital statuses are included. Overall partnered living (married or cohabiting) is associated with higher psychologi…
A socially neutral disease? Individual social class, household wealth and mortality from Spanish influenza in two socially contrasting parishes in Kristiania 1918-19
Can the Spanish Influenza Pandemic of 1918 Explain the Baby Boom of 1920 in Neutral Norway
Deux ans après la fin de la première guerre mondiale, les taux de natalité ont enregistré une vive progression en Europe, y compris en Norvège, pays resté neutre lors du conflit. Cet article tente de valider l’hypothèse selon laquelle la responsabilité du baby-boom en Norvège revient plutôt à la grippe espagnole qu’à la fin de la guerre. Alors que les recherches antérieures ont reposé sur des analyses univariées et essentiellement descriptives, c…
Can the Spanish Influenza Pandemic of 1918 Explain the Baby Boom of 1920 in Neutral Norway
The main purpose of this paper is to test the hypothesis that Spanish Influenza is the explanation of the dramatic fertility decline in Norway, from 1918 to 1919, and the subsequent baby-boom in 1920. The European country analyzed was not randomly picked; a neutral haven was chosen to possibly rule out the other, and probably more obvious candidate explaining the baby-boom of 1920; the First World War. The data used in the analysis are, in a Euro…
