American versus East Asian norms and labor market institutions affecting socioeconomic inequality Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-03-01 Arthur Sakamoto, Anita Koo
We review research on social stratification and labor market institutions with a focus on typical East Asian practices versus common American perspectives about income inequalities. In contrast to American concerns about discrimination, equality of opportunity and individualism, the understanding of inequalities in East Asian societies is more influenced by a Confucian cultural tradition. East Asian

Disability and the widening gap in mid-life wealth accumulation: A longitudinal examination Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-02-28 Andrea E. Willson, Kim M. Shuey, Vesna Pajovic
Research suggests that persons living with a disability are disadvantaged in terms of employment outcomes and experience greater economic vulnerability. Despite our understanding of wealth inequality in later life as the result of an accumulative process of resource acquisition that occurs across the life course, conclusions about economic inequality associated with disability are mainly based on cross-sectional

Can sports and music level the playing field? Adolescents’ extracurricular activities and the reproduction of social inequalities in cognitive skills Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-02-28 Henriette Bering, Wiebke Schulz
Extracurricular activities in adolescence are associated with adolescents’ cognitive skills. While participation in extracurricular activities is stratified, it is unclear whether all adolescents benefit from such activities to the same extent. This study explores whether participation in extracurricular activities functions as an equalizer or reinforcer of inequalities by examining how different types

Explaining differences in decision-relevant educational knowledge between parents with and without an immigrant background in Germany Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-02-22 Thomas Zimmermann
Although extant research persistently highlights the importance of information for educational decision-making, better understanding the existence of, and the underlying reasons for, informational differences between immigrant and non-immigrant parents is important. This study examines the differences in the level of information between immigrant and non-immigrant parents of third graders just before

Endorsement of wage discrimination against immigrants: Results from a multifactorial survey experiment in Israeli society Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-02-07 Moshe Semyonov, Anastasia Gorodzeisky, Rebeca Raijman, Thomas Hinz
In the present research we examine, first, the extent to which the Israeli public endorse wage-gaps between immigrants and comparable non-immigrant workers (employed in identical low-wage jobs), and second, whether the endorsement of wage discrimination against immigrants is associated with immigrants’ characteristics. Data for the analysis were obtained from a representative sample of the Jewish population

Is the wage premium on using computers at work gender-specific? Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-19 Tali Kristal, Efrat Herzberg-Druker, Adena White
Past research on the relationship between computers and wages has revealed two stylized facts. First, workers who use a computer at work earn higher wages than similar workers who do not (termed as ‘the computer wage premium’). Second, women are more likely to use a computer at work than are men. Given the recognized computer wage premium and women’s advantage in computer use at work, we ask: Is the

The lasting earnings losses of COVID-19 short-time work Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-18 Stefan Vogtenhuber, Nadia Steiber, Monika Mühlböck
This study is the first to investigate the impact of short-time work (STW) schemes during the COVID-19 pandemic on earnings after STW. STW schemes were implemented to preserve employee–employer matches, support workers' incomes, and uphold consumption. Although workers faced temporary earnings losses under STW, it is unclear if the negative earnings effects of STW persisted or were limited to the STW

Intersections of gender and immigrant status in Japan: Analysis of the 2020 Basic Survey on Wage Structure Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-11 Kikuko Nagayoshi
Economic integration of immigrants reflects a stratified structure of the receiving country’s labor market. Gender is one of the most important factors stratifying the labor market. While the intersection of gender and immigrant status in the labor market has been examined, a possibility that immigration policies intervene in it is understudied. This study examines how Japan’s restrictive immigration

Later and less? New evidence on occupational maturity for Swedish women and men Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-10 Erik Bihagen, Roujman Shahbazian, Sara Kjellsson
A common assumption in the social stratification literature is that the lion’s share of people reaches occupational maturity quite early in working life, i.e., they end up in an occupation/class position and stay there. The conventional view is that career maturity is reached around the age of 35. By using Swedish longitudinal occupational biographies across six birth cohorts from 1925 to 1984, this

Cohort change in the educational gradient in women’s employment around childbirth in Japan Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-03 Ryota Mugiyama
In contrast to many high-income countries, there is no clear positive relationship between maternal education and employment in Japan. However, recent policy, normative, and labor market changes are expected to have encouraged highly educated women to continue working, especially in regular employment, resulting in an increasing positive educational gradient. Despite this expectation, little is known

Racial and ethnic variation in the relationship between parental educational similarity and infant health Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2024-01-03 David Enrique Rangel, Emily Rauscher
Evidence suggests benefits of parental educational homogamy for infant and child well-being but ignores potential racial and ethnic variation in these benefits. Increasing disparities in infant health by maternal education and race, along with increasing educational sorting, raise questions about whether educational homogamy could contribute to these disparities. Drawing on a random sample of over

Aging and the rise in bottom income inequality in Korea Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-27 ChangHwan Kim, Andrew Taeho Kim
Korea is one of the world’s fastest-aging societies, with poverty and low income prevalent among the elderly population. Unlike other advanced economies, where top income inequality has driven the rise in income inequality, fluctuations in income inequality in Korea in recent decades have been dominated by changes in the bottom half of the income distribution. Using data from the 1998–2016 Household

The effects of state-managed marketplaces on out-of-pocket health care costs: Before and after the Affordable Care Act Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-23 Zachary D. Kline
The healthcare marketplaces established by the Affordable Care Act (ACA) are intended to make healthcare more affordable and accessible for middle- and moderate-income families. However, state governments regulate many aspects of the insurance markets. This study examines how state-managed insurance marketplaces affect the ACA’s impact on out-of-pocket healthcare spending across different income groups

Better close to home? Geographical and socioeconomic constraints on gendered educational transitions at the upper secondary level Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-21 Irene Prix, Outi Sirniö, Juhani Saari
Educational decisions are affected by geographical accessibility, which may have far-reaching consequences for young people’s future educational pathways. In this paper, we examine the extent to which geographical distance to educational institutions may moderate young people’s applications to upper secondary education in terms of both the track and the gender-(a)typicality of vocational fields of

Native American “deaths of despair” and economic conditions Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-16 Randall Akee, Donn. L. Feir, Marina Mileo Gorzig, Samuel Myers Jr
“Deaths of despair” – deaths caused by suicide, drug use, and alcohol use – have increased among non-Hispanic whites who do not have a college degree. We analyze confidential-use data from the National Center for Health Statistics that contains death certificates from 2005 to 2017 (total of 21,177,490 records) linked with measures of local labor market activity. We show that deaths of despair are proportionally

The long-run causal effects of single-sex schooling on work-related outcomes in South Korea Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-15 Hyun Jin (Katelyn) Kim, Chloe Ahn, Jere R. Behrman, Jaesung Choi, Eugen Dimant, Emily Hannum, Amber Hye-Yon Lee, Diana Mutz, Hyunjoon Park
This study explores the lasting impact of single-sex versus coeducational high schools on gender disparities in adult life in South Korea, which is a country characterized by marked gender inequality. Leveraging Seoul’s unique policy of randomly assigning students to high schools, we examine how school type influences attainment of bachelor’s degrees, working full time, and attitudes towards competition

Beyond parental wealth: Grandparental wealth and the transition to adulthood Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-14 Emma Zang, Christina Gibson-Davis, Haolun Li
This study considers the multigenerational consequences of wealth transmission for the transition to young adulthood. Using a wider set of outcomes than has previously been considered, and by analyzing parental and grandparental wealth simultaneously, this work underscores the salience of multiple generations of wealth as a predictor for young adult well-being. Data comes from the US Panel Study of

Educational expansion, fields of study, and the gender gap in analytic skill usage on the job Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-13 Jonathan Horowitz, Sagi Ramaj
This study investigates how higher education expansion changes gender gaps in analytic skill usage on the job in the United States, and its variation across fields of study at the bachelor’s degree level. The present study proposes two patterns for graduates of a given field: One where educational expansion reinforces gender gaps, and another where it dissolves them. Using data from four different

Occupational mobility and biological well-being: A perspective over three generations in rural Spain, 1835–1959 Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-06 Francisco J. Marco-Gracia, Ángel Luis González-Esteban
This article analyses the effects of occupational mobility on biological well-being from a long-term perspective. While it is well known that occupation and heights were closely related in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, our analysis shows that variations in the occupational status of parents and social mobility relative to grandparents also help to explain the evolution of biological

Segplot: A new method for visualizing patterns of multi-group segregation Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-11-30 Benjamin Elbers, Rob J. Gruijters
Social science research on between-group segregation relies heavily on mathematical indices of exposure and unevenness, which tell us very little about the underlying patterns of segregation. We present a new visual method for analyzing two-group and multi-group segregation patterns, which we call a segplot. Segplots provide an intuitive illustration of segregation between schools, neighborhoods, occupations

Is it the school of fish or the size of the pond that matters? An experimental examination of reference group effects in secondary school Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-05 Christoph Zangger, Sandra Gilgen, Nora Moser
Do teachers consider not only an individual student's performance and abilities but also the number of motivated peers in a class as a frame of reference when deciding whether or not to recommend them for academic high school? Given the limited number of places available in such schools in the short run, we argue that a student's chances of being recommended depend on the number of competitors and

Historical evolution of intergenerational class mobility and educational effects in urban Argentina: 1960–2017 Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-12-01 Jorge Raúl Jorrat, Pablo Dalle, Sandra Fachelli, Manuel Riveiro
The Argentinean case –given an early modernization and the singularity of its reversal of development- is instructive about the role of education on intergenerational class mobility. We propose a wide historical analysis of time variations in intergenerational class mobility and the role of education over different periods in urban Argentina –specifically in the Buenos Aires Metropolitan Area, from

Starting flexible, always flexible? The relation of early temporary employment and young workers employment trajectories in the Netherlands Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-11-25 Laura Eberlein, Dimitris Pavlopoulos, Mauricio Garnier-Villarreal
Using register data from Statistics Netherlands (2009–2019), this paper examines whether the first employment contract is related to early career outcomes for a cohort of young workers who entered the Dutch labour market in the period from late 2009–2013. Instead of looking at the timing of isolated transitions between employment states, 6-year-long trajectories are considered to identify differences

Is universal early childhood education and care an equalizer? A systematic review and meta-analysis of evidence Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-11-17 Rita Schmutz
Studies have shown that early investments improve outcomes for disadvantaged children. Targeted early childhood interventions aimed at vulnerable children have lasting positive impacts throughout the participants' life course, consequently reducing inequalities. However, results from targeted programs cannot be generalized to universal Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC). Universal ECEC, available

Unions and moral economies: An investigation into cultural pathways linking union decline to rising income inequality, 1983–2018 Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-10-24 Shawn Perron
Declines in union density explain a considerable portion of rising US inequality among unionized and non-unionized workers. However, how union density regulates non-union wages is mainly speculative. I test the moral economy hypothesis that union density reduces inequality, in part, by fostering egalitarian wage norms that regulate compensation practices and redistributive policies. Variance function

Social origin and women’s occupational careers. The role of parenthood in shaping social inequality among Italian women Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-10-16 Stefano Cantalini, Gabriele Ballarino
This paper studies in longitudinal perspective the direct effect of social origin (DESO) on the careers of women in Italy, focusing on the role of motherhood in shaping the DESO and its pattern over the life course. Career outcomes are seen in terms of employment interruptions and of occupational status. First, the paper analyzes when the DESO appears, and how it evolves over the occupational career

The summer parental investment gap? Socioeconomic gaps in the seasonality of parental expenditures and time with school-age children Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-10-05 Orestes P. Hastings, Joe LaBriola
Inequalities in parental investments can shape inequalities in children’s outcomes and life chances. Scholars have theorized how socioeconomic status (SES) may moderate how parents use parental investments to respond to the loss of the provision of public schooling during the summer. We investigate the seasonality of SES gaps in parental investments of both money and time in the United States using

Family, school, neighbourhood or all three: Differences in tertiary educational achievement among the Russian ethno-linguistic minority in Tallinn Urban Region, Estonia Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-09-27 David Knapp, Tiit Tammaru, Kadri Leetmaa, Kadi Kalm
Labour market outcomes of ethnic minorities tend to be lower compared to members of the majority population. Better education obtained in the host country has the potential to mitigate such ethnic labour market disadvantage. In this study, we will focus on the role of family, neighbourhood and school characteristics in the achievement of tertiary education among the minority population. Our empirical

Family, community, and the rural social mobility advantage Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-09-26 Dylan S. Connor, Lori Hunter, Jiwon Jang, Johannes H. Uhl
Children born into poverty in rural America achieve higher average income levels as adults than their urban peers. As economic opportunity tends to be more abundant in cities, this "rural advantage" in income mobility seems paradoxical. This article resolves this puzzle by applying multilevel analysis to new spatial measures of rurality and place-level data on intergenerational income mobility. We

Intragenerational wage mobility and social disadvantage: A comparative study of West Germany and the United States Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-09-16 Raffaele Grotti, Giampiero Passaretta
This article studies wage mobility during the early career in West Germany and the United States. We examine the extent of intragenerational wage fluctuations, whether they structure into upward mobility trends or remain volatile variations, and whether mobility aligns with classical stratification dimensions (gender, social origin, and education). We highlight three main findings. First, intragenerational

Gender employment gap at arrival and its dynamics: The case of refugees in Germany Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-08-29 Yuliya Kosyakova, Zerrin Salikutluk, Jörg Hartmann
In recent years, refugee women’s experiences have received considerable attention in the academic discourse on immigrant labor market integration. Taking a dynamic perspective, we investigate gender differences in the labor market integration of refugees who arrived in Germany between 2013 and 2019. We examine refugees' trajectories in the early post-arrival period and explore a number of conditions

Coordinated markets, school-to-work linkages, and labor market outcomes in Europe Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-08-24 Thomas A. DiPrete, Joanna Chae
A large literature has theorized about the importance of skill formation systems for labor market outcomes. Focusing on twenty two European countries, this paper establishes that countries differ in the strength of the pathways that connect educational credentials to the occupational structure. Pathway strength matters for the quality of occupational matching, for employment and earnings, and for the

Social origin and expectation of postgraduate enrolment among spanish university undergraduates mediation and moderation effect of fields of study and grades Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-08-24 Luis Ortiz-Gervasi
The effect of social origin on educational expectations has mostly focused on adolescents. Yet, the expansion of higher education across the OECD area has made the transition from bachelor to master programs increasingly consequential for inequality of educational opportunities and social mobility. Applying multinomial logistic regression to data from a survey carried out in 2018 among university students

Occupational origin effects on wage and market income (inequality): The cases of Spain and Germany Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-08-10 Luca Giangregorio
Most of the economic and sociological literature focuses on the role of social origin background on class, or wage outcomes. Yet, two individuals may have similar wages, but very different market incomes, so that the role of social origin may differ between these two individuals. This paper aims to explore the social origin associations – net of individual occupation – on two types of monetary outcomes:

Students’ chauvinistic track attitudes: The role of public track regard and teachers’ chauvinistic communication in Belgian secondary schools Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-07-12
Although there is a wealth of research on educational tracking, little research investigates students’ own track perception. Based on theoretical insights from ethnic and identity studies, we study how public regard and teachers’ track communication affect students’ chauvinistic track attitudes. Chauvinism is a less desirable way of identification, causing between-group prejudice and hostility. The

Is older age more unequal than we think? Estimates from the Survey of Income and Program Participation linked to administrative records Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-07-16 Daniel K. Thompson, Christopher R. Tamborini
Despite increased scholarly and policy interest in income inequality, our knowledge of inequality in later life is relatively limited. One challenge to studying inequality in older age groups is that income sources that are important in later life, including pensions and retirement accounts, may be poorly captured by household income surveys. In this study, we investigate income inequality among the

In this study, we investigate the relationship between social origin and educational attainment in Spain from 1946 to 1989, testing the theory of persistent inequalities and using two different methodological approaches: the margin-free versus the margin-dependent traditions. More specifically, we will compare the results of the traditional log-linear measures used most frequently in this field with

Does social origin modify the heritability of cognitive ability? A close look at the relevance of different parental resources Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-06-21 Bastian Mönkediek, Martin Diewald, Volker Lang
Cognitive ability plays a prominent role among individual characteristics favorable for success in life. The extent to which endowments for cognitive ability can be realized is an important aspect of unequal life chances in a society. Social origin is considered particularly relevant for realizing cognitive genetic potentials, but related empirical findings are mixed. This paper examines whether there

From gender equality to household earnings equality: The role of women’s labour market outcomes across OECD countries Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-05-24 Leo Azzollini, Richard Breen, Brian Nolan
We assess the impact that full gender equality in the labour market would have on earnings inequality between households, and then decompose that impact by looking separately at the roles played by gender gaps in employment, hours, and pay. We do this by applying a reweighting method to LIS data for 22 OECD countries, across North America, Europe, and Australia. We find that full equality in earnings

When lines of class division run through families: Comparing mother’s and father’s influence on social destiny Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-05-18 Cyril Jayet
The importance of both parents’ occupation on the social destiny of women and men have often been documented. However, studies have not explained how the mother’s influence differs from that of the father and in particular when both parents have different and unequal social positions. We argue that these differences shed light on distinct factors that underlie social class reproduction: the position

Rob Mare's research elaborated and deepened the "basic model" of social stratification articulated by Blau and Duncan. Mare modeled education, the central explanatory variable in the Blau-Duncan model, as a series of transitions from lower to higher achievement. This approach made the model more realistic and helped focus substantive attention on high school dropout. He, in collaboration with Winship

Atypical work, financial assets, and asset poverty in Germany Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-04-29 Claudia Colombarolli, Philipp M. Lersch
This study investigates how atypical employment (i.e., part-time, temporary work, mini-jobs) affects workers' ability to accumulate financial assets and exposes them to asset poverty in Germany. Asset poverty occurs when household financial resources (e.g., bank deposits and stock equity) are insufficient to live at the income poverty line for three months. Previously, studies on labour market processes

Persistent university intentions: Social origin differences in stopping applying to university after educational rejection(s) Research in Social Stratification and Mobility (IF 3.909) Pub Date : 2023-04-25 Laura Heiskala, Elina Kilpi-Jakonen, Outi Sirniö, Jani Erola
Re-applying after an educational rejection is a considerable but understated part of access to selective educational institutions. We study social inequalities in stopping applying to university after an educational rejection to identify the extent to which educational intentions are more constrained among students from the lower social strata. We explore applications to universities in Finland, where
