A large literature has measured the regression to the mean in earnings and occupational status. One conclusion of this literature is that earnings regress to the mean more rapidly than status. This paper provides a theoretical model for intergenerational mobility in both status and earnings and examines its implications empirically. We consider the theoretical implications of parental investmen...

Social, emotional and physical relationships are one of the most important tools that human beings need to continue their lives. The people individuals firstly get in touch with families. It is quite possible who were grown up normally multigenerational families impressed by these families’ atmosphere. Some research findings indicate constitute relationship at advancing ages taking as a referen...

BACKGROUND Keeping older adults healthy and active is an emerging challenge of an aging society. Despite the importance of personal relationships to their health and well-being, changes in family structure have resulted in a lower frequency of intergenerational interactions. Limited studies have been conducted to compare different interaction style of intergenerational interaction. The present ...

CONTEXT The familial nature of childhood conduct problems has been well documented, but few genetically informed studies have explicitly explored the processes through which parental conduct problems influence an offspring's behavior problems. OBJECTIVE To delineate the genetic and environmental processes underlying the intergenerational transmission of childhood conduct problems. DESIGN We...

Intergenerational solidarity is and important phenomenon for strengthening  social cohesion and is an important immediate mechanism that has major role in the transfer of knowledge from generation to generation. But the distance between parents and youth, among generations, and this gap exists between the social system, with profound social problems facing the generation gap in the process in t...

Cultural transmission of information plays a central role in shaping human knowledge. Some of the most complex knowledge that people acquire, such as languages or cultural norms, can only be learned from other people, who themselves learned from previous generations. The prevalence of this process of "iterated learning" as a mode of cultural transmission raises the question of how it affects th...

A rich data set gives a unique opportunity to study heterogeneity in intergenerational mobility. Here, we explore whether the intergenerational association in education and income is the same for children with different results in a cognitive ability test (the Swedish Military Enlistment test). Despite an endogenous test score, the argument is that this is the policy relevant case to analyze, i...

OBJECTIVE Although intergenerational relationships have been extensively examined, studies applying dynamic multidimensional treatments are rare. Employing the life course framework and the intergenerational solidarity and ambivalence paradigms, a typology of intergenerational relationships was derived and propositions about dynamics of intergenerational relationships were tested. METHOD Usin...
