  • migration after Union Dissolution in the united states the role of non resident family
    Social Science Research, 2021
    Co-Authors: Amy Spring, Clara H Mulder, Michael J Thomas, Thomas J Cooke
    Abstract:

    Separation from a spouse or cohabiting partner is associated with a high likelihood of moving, even over long distances. In this paper, we use longitudinal data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics for the United States to analyze the role of non-resident family in the migration of separated people immediately after and in the years following Union Dissolution. We explore both migration in general and return migration among separated people, drawing comparisons to married and never-married people. We find that having parents, children, or siblings living close by substantially deters migration, especially among separated people. We also find marked positive effects of having family members in the county where the respondent grew up on the likelihood of returning there. Separated people are especially likely to return, compared to others, if they have parents in their county of origin. Furthermore, a lack of an effect of years of education on migration, and a negative effect of this variable on return migration, suggest that migration after separation is less related to human-capital considerations than other types of migration.

THE EFFECT OF MOVING ON Union Dissolution ABSTRACT This paper examines the effect of migration and residential mobility on Union Dissolution among married and cohabiting couples. While there is a large, multidisciplinary literature looking at the determinants of Union Dissolution in Europe and North America, the possible impact of geographical mobility has received little attention. This is despite the fact that moving is a stressful life event and that numerous studies suggest that women's economic well-being and employment suffer from family moves which are usually stimulated by the man's career. We base our longitudinal analysis on retrospective event-history data from Austria and apply hazard regression. Our results show that couples who move frequently have a significantly higher risk of Union Dissolution. We argue that frequent moving increases couple stress and Union instability through a variety of mechanisms

  • Union Dissolution and migration
    Demographic Research, 2016
    Co-Authors: Thomas J Cooke, Clara H Mulder, Michael J Thomas
    Abstract:

    BACKGROUND While there is a limited body of research regarding residential mobility and migration following Union Dissolution, there is a particular dearth of studies that go into detail about the factors that shape how Union Dissolution may result in long-distance migration. OBJECTIVE This research isolates and identifies the processes that influence inter-state migration in the period immediately following the Dissolution of a marital Union. METHODS Multilevel logit models of the probability of inter-state migration following the Dissolution of marital Unions are estimated using data drawn from the 1975 through 2011 US Panel Study of Income Dynamics (PSID). RESULTS The results provide support for a gendered model of family migration, indicate that separated parents are less likely to migrate than ex-partners without children, and suggest that the migration decisions of former partners may remain linked through their children even after the end of their Union. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that the migration of separated parents is constrained by the need for parents with joint or shared children to remain in close geographic proximity to each other. Since both the number of children living with separated parents and the number of those parents with joint or shared custody are increasing, it is likely that this plays some role in the long-term decline in US migration rates.

  • life events and the gap between intention to move and actual mobility
    Environment and Planning A, 2011
    Co-Authors: Carola De Groot, Clara H Mulder, Marjolijn Das, Dorien Manting
    Abstract:

    Life events are frequently mentioned as a reason why people do not behave according to their mobility intentions. However, there is little empirical evidence concerning the role of life events in the discrepancy between stated mobility intentions and actual mobility behaviour. The authors clarify the role of life events in this discrepancy using a longitudinal dataset from the Netherlands, in which the Housing Demand Survey 2002 is enriched with register data from the Social Statistical Database. Union Dissolution, Union formation, and childbirth trigger moves among people who had initial intended to stay in the current home. These events also act as an extra stimulus to move for those who already intended to move for reasons other than household or job change. In contrast, the event of losing a job prevents people from realising their intention to move. The results also suggest that the majority of the moves after Union Dissolution are made by people who did not have an initial intention to move.

  • Union Dissolution and mobility who moves from the family home after separation
    Journal of Marriage and Family, 2010
    Co-Authors: Clara H Mulder, Michael Wagner
    Abstract:

    We investigate which partner of a 2-gender couple moves out after separation. We test hypotheses on the impact of differences between the partners in the costs of moving out and resources, using data from the Divorce in the Netherlands survey (N = 1,537 ex-couples who separated between 1972 and 1998). Ex-partners initiating the separation were more likely to leave, as were those for whom a new partnership was a reason for the separation. An ex-partner with custody of children was less likely to leave, as was an ex-partner with more resources. A woman was less likely to leave when the joint children no longer lived at home or when the partnership had been longer lasting.

  • Fathers’ Use of Parental Leave and Union Dissolution
    European Journal of Population, 2020
    Co-Authors: Trude Lappegård, Ann-zofie Duvander, Synøve N. Andersen, Gerda Neyer, Ida Viklund, Ólöf Garðarsdóttir
    Abstract:

    With increasing Union Dissolution and changing gender behaviour, questions have emerged about possible links between gender equality and Union stability. The aim of this article is to examine whether and how early fathers’ involvement in child-rearing is associated with Union Dissolution in three Nordic countries. All three countries have reserved part of their parental leave to be used by one parent in order to promote fathers’ engagement in child-rearing. Our analysis uses fathers’ parental leave as a proxy for his involvement, and we distinguish between fathers who take no leave (“non-conforming fathers”), fathers who take only the reserved part (“policy-conforming fathers”) and fathers who take more than the reserved part (“gender-egalitarian-oriented fathers”). We find that couples in which the father uses parental leave have a lower risk of Union Dissolution than couples in which the father takes no leave. The pattern is consistent for all countries, for the whole study period 1993–2011, and for cohabiting and married couples. However, we do not find support for asserting that the couples with greatest gender equality, in which fathers take longer leave than the policy reserves, are the most stable Unions, as the pattern is not uniform in the three countries. We attribute this to the fact that gender equality within the family in the Nordic countries is still an ongoing process, and the relationship between gender behaviour and Union stability is still in flux.

At this stage, it is clear that policies set up to change gender relations in families do have unintended consequences in terms of greater Union stability among couples making use of the policy

  • the gender revolution a framework for understanding changing family and demographic behavior
    Population and Development Review, 2015
    Co-Authors: Frances K Goldscheider, Eva Bernhardt, Trude Lappegård
    Abstract:

    type="main"> This article argues that the trends normally linked with the second demographic transition (SDT) may be reversed as the gender revolution enters its second half by including men more centrally in the family. We develop a theoretical argument about the emerging consequences of this stage of the gender revolution and review research results that bear on it. The argument compares the determinants and consequences of recent family trends in industrialized societies provided by two narratives: the SDT and the gender revolution in the public and private spheres. Our argument examines differences in theoretical foundations and positive vs. negative implications for the future. We focus primarily on the growing evidence for turnarounds in the relationships between measures of women's human capital and Union formation, fertility, and Union Dissolution, and consider evidence that men's home involvement increases Union formation and fertility and decreases Union instability. Although the family trends underlying the SDT and the gender revolution narratives are ongoing and a convincing view of the phenomenon has not yet emerged, the wide range of recent research results documenting changing, even reversing relationships suggests that the gender approach is increasingly the more fruitful one.

  • health and Union Dissolution among parenting couples differences by gender and marital status
    Journal of Health and Social Behavior, 2018
    Co-Authors: Christine Percheski, Jess M. Meyer
    Abstract:

    Poor health may destabilize romantic Unions by impeding fulfillment of family responsibilities, increasing stress, and causing financial strain. We hypothesized that the associations of health characteristics with Union stability for parenting couples vary by the gender of the partner in poor health and the couple's marital status because of gender and marital status differences in family responsibilities and health-related coping behaviors. Using longitudinal data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (n = 2,997), we examined how three health measures predicted Union Dissolution for urban married and cohabiting couples with young children. Fathers' depression at baseline predicted Dissolution for all parenting couples, as did either partner developing depression between baseline and the following interview. For married parents, fathers' health-related work limitations and mothers' poor self-rated health also predicted Dissolution. Associations between health conditions and Dissolution differ by gender and marital status, possibly reflecting varying social norms about family responsibilities.

  • Health behaviors and Union Dissolution among parents of young children: Differences by marital status
    2017
    Co-Authors: Jess M. Meyer, Christine Percheski
    Abstract:

    Previous research finds that marriage is associated with better health and lower mortality, and one of the mechanisms underlying this association is health-related selection out of marriage. Using longitudinal survey data from 2,348 couples from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, we examine whether certain health behaviors—smoking and binge drinking—are associated with risk of Union Dissolution among couples with young children. We use discrete time hazard models to test whether associations between health behaviors and Union Dissolution differ between married and cohabiting parents. We find no statistically significant association between binge drinking and Union Dissolution for either cohabiting or married couples. Parental smoking, however, is associated with Union Dissolution. On average, married and cohabiting couples in which both parents smoke have a higher risk of Union Dissolution than couples in which neither parent smokes. Additionally, father’s smoking (in couples in which the mother does not smoke) is associated with Union Dissolution, but only for married couples. These findings illustrate the importance of considering the health behaviors of both partners and provide further evidence of differences in Union Dissolution dynamics between married and cohabiting couples.

    Abstract:

    This paper examines the effect of migration and residential mobility on Union Dissolution among married and cohabiting couples. Moving is a stressful life event, and a large, multidisciplinary literature has shown that family migration often benefits one partner (usually the man) more than the other. Even so, no study to date has examined the possible impact of within-nation geographical mobility on Union Dissolution. We base our longitudinal analysis on retrospective event-history data from Austria. Our results show that couples who move frequently have a significantly higher risk of Union Dissolution, and we suggest a variety of mechanisms that may explain this.

  • migration and Union Dissolution in a changing socio economic context the case of russia
    Demographic Research, 2007
    Co-Authors: Magdalena Muszynska, Hill Kulu
    Abstract:

    Previous studies show that family migration is usually to the benefit of the mans professional career and that it has a negative impact on the womans economic well-being and employment. This study extends previous research by examining the effect of family migration on Union Dissolution. We use the event-history data of two retrospective surveys from Russia and apply hazard regression. The analysis shows that couples who move frequently over long distances have a significantly higher risk of Union Dissolution than couples who do not move or move only once. Our further analysis reveals that the risk of disruption for frequent movers is high when the migrant woman has a job. Frequent migrants had a high risk of Union Dissolution during the Soviet period but they faced no such risk during the post-Soviet socio-economic transition. We argue that frequent moving increases Union instability through a variety of mechanisms the effect of which may vary across socio-economic contexts. (authors)

    Abstract:

    A growing body of literature looks at the consequences of family migration from a gender perspective. The studies show that women’s economic well-being and employment suffer from family migration, which is usually stimulated by the career of the male earner in the family. This study extends current research on the subject by examining the effect of family migration on Union Dissolution. We use the event-history data of two retrospective surveys from Russia and apply hazard regression. The analysis shows that couples who move frequently over long distances have a significantly higher risk of Union Dissolution than couples who do not move or move only once. Our further analysis reveals that the risk of disruption for frequent movers is high when the migrant woman has a job. Frequent migrants had a high risk of Union Dissolution in the Soviet period but not so during the post-Soviet socio-economic transition. We argue that frequent moving increases Union instability through a variety of mechanisms, the effect of which may vary across socio-economic contexts, however.
