4/2024Labor market participation and informal family care among older adults in Germany: Role substitution, role expansion, role extension or dis-/nonengagement?

Mergenthaler, Andreas; Schneider, Norbert F.

This article examines the diversity of transitions between employment and family care among older adults in Germany using data from the “Transitions and Old Age Potential” (TOP) study. A typology based on role theory and disengagement approach is developed, categorizing transitions into four types main types of transitions—role substitution, role expansion, role extension, and dis-/nonengagement. Further analyses reveal various patterns and influences on these role transitions, including time commitment, labor market inequalities and personal preferences. The findings provide new insights into role transitions in later adulthood and their determinants in aging populations. mehr: Labor market participation and informal family care among older adults in Germany: Role substitution, role expansion, role extension or dis-/nonengagement? …

Our results highlight the large role internal and international migration patterns will play in future population development in Germany at the county level. We also discuss what our results and the uncertainty of future population change at the regional level mean for local policy making and planning. mehr: Future subnational population change in Germany: The role of internal and international migration …

7/2023Does women’s agency matter in the formation and realization of fertility desires? An empirical investigation in Egypt and Jordan

Friedrich, Carmen

This study investigates whether the agency of women in Egypt and Jordan influences their personal ideal number of children and their ability to have no more children than they desire. Moreover, a “couple’s perspective” is adopted by examining whether the relationship between women’s agency and unwanted births persists even when the husband desires more children than his wife. mehr: Does women’s agency matter in the formation and realization of fertility desires?

4/2023Stepfamily Instability in Germany

Heintz-Martin, Valerie; Brehm, Uta

Separations exert a detrimental impact on different areas of life in both adults and children. Having already experienced family instability, stepfamily members are at risk of experiencing even multiple family separations across the life course. To better understand stepfamily (in)stability in Europe, we study stability risks and facilitators between stepfamilies in Germany. mehr: Stepfamily Instability in Germany …
