“…Tyrimų rezultatai šių veiksnių atžvilgiu gana darnūs, tačiau tai nepasakytina stebint moterų populiaciją. Aukštesnis išsilavinimas, pajamos ir užimtumas didina vyrų simbolinę vertę "santuokinėje rinkoje" (Lampard, Peggs 1999;de Graaf, Kalmijn 2003;Wu, Schimmele 2005;Pasteels, Mortelmans 2017). Buvusios partnerystės statusas, kaip rodo atliktų tyrimų rezultatai, taip pat yra reikšmingas dėmuo pakartotinų partnerysčių kūrimo mechanizmui.…”

“…Užimtumo statusas yra svarbus partnerystės atkūrimo riziką prognozuojantis veiksnys, kaip rodo vyrų, nutraukusių santuoką / kohabitaciją, dabartiniu laikotarpiu partnerystės dinamikos analizė. Šis rezultatas dera su pristatytais kituose tyrimuose užsienio šalyse (Lampard, Peggs 1999;de Graaf, Kalmijn 2003;Wu, Schimmele 2005;Pasteels, Mortelmans 2017). Akivaizdu, kad vyrų partnerystės trajektorijas itin reikšmingu būdu formuoja jų pozicijos darbo rinkoje.…”

“…Similarly, selection into sole father custody (e.g., high predivorce involvement, mother's health limitations or financial problems) may affect parental involvement (Golombok & Tasker, 2015; Kitterød & Lyngstad, 2014). Research on repartnering has shown several factors to affect new union formation, such as attitudes, personality traits or socioeconomic status (De Graaf & Kalmijn, 2003; Pasteels & Mortelmans, 2017), which have also been found to affect parenting (Bulanda, 2004; Manning et al, 2003). To address possible selection issues, analyses control for a wide range of parental demographic and predivorce relationship characteristics.…”

Objective This study investigates the role of residence (including shared residence), repartnering (including LAT relationships), and additional children (step‐ and half‐siblings) on parenting in postdivorce families, and whether patterns differ by gender and type of parenting behavior. Background Patterns of parenting are indicative of how parents redefine their roles and responsibilities after divorce and repartnering, but extant research has largely overlooked parenting across a full array of postdivorce families. Method The analyses were based on data from Wave 2 of the New Families in the Netherlands survey, which was conducted among a random sample of divorced or separated heterosexual parents with minor children (N = 2,778). Results Residence was highly relevant for parenting in regular care, leisure, irregular care, and influence in child‐related decision‐making. Repartnering and additional children had smaller effects and it mattered which type of parenting behavior was considered, but they were generally associated with lower parental engagement, except for decision‐making influence. Gender differences were only found for decision‐making influence, showing that variations in parenting across residence arrangements or between repartnered or single parents were more pronounced for mothers than fathers. Conclusion Residence was more strongly related to parenting than repartnering, and the strength and nature of associations varied between parenting behaviors. Influence in decision‐making stood out as a distinct parenting behavior, and also the frequency and obligatory nature of parent–child activities mattered.

“…Since the 1980s, studies have consistently highlighted substantial declines in women's disposable, adjusted household income 2 associated with marital dissolution, whereas men's income has been shown to be less affected; some studies have even highlighted men's income improvements around marital dissolution (Andreß, Borgloh, Brockel, Giesselmann, & Hummelsheim, 2006;De Vaus, Gray, Qu, & Stanton, 2017). Studies on income recovery have, thus, mainly focused on women's post-divorce coping and examined mechanisms such as (re)employment and remarriage, as well as the protective function of different welfare state regimes (Jansen, Mortelmans, & Snoeckx, 2009;Mortelmans & Jansen, 2010;Pasteels & Mortelmans, 2017;Wu & Schimmele, 2005). 3 Compared to income, the consequences of marital dissolution for men's and women's wealth have received only little attention.…”

“…The presence of children has also been shown to limit residential parents' likelihood to re-partner and speed of re-partnering. Single parents thus benefit less or only at a later stage from the potential economic benefits of a new relationship (de Graaf & Kalmijn, 2003;Di Nallo, 2018;Pasteels & Mortelmans, 2017;Wu & Schimmele, 2005).…”

May your wealth be easily divisible by two: marital dissolution and personal wealth of German men and women over the life course

Wealth provides advantages above those provided by earnings including the access to an objective and subjective economic buffer during financial hardship (Spilerman, 2000). However, individuals differ greatly in their ability to generate and maintain wealth (Killewald, Pfeffer, & Schachner, 2017). The lack of sufficient private wealth is becoming progressively problematic, as even countries with generous welfare systems, such as Germany, have increasingly emphasised personal economic responsibility throughout the life course (Seeleib-Kaiser, 2016). It is thus urgent to understand the factors that disrupt individuals' wealth accumulation given their implications for the economic wellbeing of the population in forthcoming years. While family dynamics have been recognised as a source of stratification (McLanahan & Percheski, 2008), marital dissolution has received little attention within wealth stratification research despite this event being linked to a range of financial-and potentially wealth-relevant-burdens (e.g. relocation costs, administrative divorce costs). This thesis investigates the association between marital dissolution and wealth of men and women in Germany. I thereby expand on an incipient body of US research that found that marital dissolution is associated with substantially lower household or percapita wealth (e.g. Zagorsky, 2005; Zissimopoulos, Karney, & Rauer, 2015). These studies, however, almost exclusively used cross-sectional data and static theories, although the processes linking marital dissolution and wealth are likely dynamic, with important wealth-related processes taking place before and after marital separation and divorce. Furthermore, due to data restrictions, previous studies insufficiently considered gender differences although the economic outcomes of marital dissolution, at least for income, have been shown to differ between men and women. To address these shortcomings in previous research, I aim to (a) explain how marital dissolution affects individuals' wealth levels and wealth accumulation, including immediate and long-term outcomes, and (b) explore how, and to what degree, the association between marital dissolution and wealth is gendered. I rely on three methodological and theoretical developments to address these aims. First, I draw on the life course framework, which provides a set of heuristics that acknowledge patterns of stability and change. Second, addressing limitations of static methods applied in previous research, I build on statistical methods that provide more appropriate tools to analyse patterns of progression, individual change, and dynamic processes. My quantitative approach includes panel regressions and sequence analysis. Third, I rely on novel longitudinal wealth data from the German SocioEconomic Panel (SOEP). These data are unique in that they were collected separately for each household member (i.e. at the personal level), which enable a gender-sensitive approach. My thesis highlights a range of key findings: First, marital dissolution is associated ...
