New paper out in @jmfncfr.bsky.social with @minekuhn.bsky.social and @zjvanwinkle.bsky.social. We use (weighted) sequence complexity indices to estimate mental + physical health in mid-adulthood. Results (again) highlight the vulnerability of single mothers.

New paper with @fabriberna.bsky.social - part of my PhD thesis!

Why are the negative educational consequences of parental separation stronger among high-SES children?

→ When high-SES parents separate, they lose their ability to compensate for their child’s low genetic propensity for education 🧬👪

Super happy to see this great paper by @rutheva.bsky.social, @rosacheesman.bsky.social , Ole Andreassen and myself out now!

Typical sociodemographic research on partnership dissolution has seldom considered individual differences. In this paper, we show with genomic data that they do matter.

First publication of my thesis is out w/ this fantastic & interdisciplinary team: @karlosj89.bsky.social @fabriberna.bsky.social E. van Bergen @perlinedemange.bsky.social!✨

Do parents' SES moderate the link between genetic propensity for (non)cognitive skills and education?

A current paper of @philippdierker.bsky.social & @minekuhn.bsky.social reveals: New partnerships can improve the life satisfaction of single moms,especially through increased financial resources.But a new partner doesn't usually bring relief around household chores. www.demogr.mpg.de/go/repartnering

The 2nd paper of my PhD got published in JMF 🎉
In this paper with @minekuhn.bsky.social and Mikko Myrskylä, we look at changes in mental health and life satisfaction among single mothers who re-partner in Germany and the UK.

Publication by @philippdierker.bsky.social & Martin Diewald! The study shows that low-income families support their children equally, while parents with higher income tend to give more support to children with lower grades. What does that mean for social mobility? www.demogr.mpg.de/go/schoolgrades

I am happy to use my first skeet (do we still say that here?) to share that this paper with Martin Diewald on parental support strategies in response to children's school performance, which is based on my master’s thesis, is now published online #OpenAccess in ESR (doi.org/10.1093/esr/...)
