Einstellung der Deutschen zum Euro: Politische Vorteile höher bewertet als wirtschaftlicher Nutzen

Vor der Einführung des Euro-Bargeldes war die Zustimmung zum Euro in Deutschland im Vergleich zu den anderen an der Währungsunion teilnehmenden Ländern gering. Nach der Bargeldeinführung war zunächst eine Euro-Begeisterung zu verzeichnen, die in den folgenden Wochen allerdings wieder etwas abnahm. Dennoch ist die Zustimmung zum Euro inzwischen höher als im vergangenen Jahr: Während damals noch zwei ...

The Attitudes Towards the Euro: An Empirical Study based on the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP)

Healthier and Happier? A 3-Year Longitudinal Investigation of the Prospective Associations and Concurrent Changes in Health and Experiential Well-Being

Global well-being is positively correlated with health. Moreover, studies suggest that health and global well-being predict changes in one another across time. Fewer studies, however, have examined the extent to which health is associated with daily emotional experiences?especially longitudinally. The present study examined the longitudinal associations between health and both global and experiential ...

Income Reliably Predicts Daily Sadness, but Not Happiness: A Replication and Extension of Kushlev, Dunn, and Lucas (2015)

Kushlev, Dunn, and Lucas (2015) found that income predicts less daily sadness—but not greater happiness—among Americans. The present study used longitudinal data from an approximately representative German sample to replicate and extend these findings. Our results largely replicated Kushlev et al.’s results: Income predicted less daily sadness (albeit with a smaller effect size) but was unrelated to ...

The role of family risk attitudes in education and intergenerational mobility: An empirical analysis

This paper analyses the role of family risk attitudes in intergenerational mobility in incomes and education. Based on 1984-2009 data of sons and fathers from the German Socio-Economic Panel Survey, there is evidence suggesting that sons with risk taking fathers have a significantly higher educational mobility and persistently higher income mobility than peers with risk averse fathers. They obtain ...

The role of paternal risk attitudes in long-run education outcomes and intergenerational mobility

This paper studies the role of paternal risk attitudes in sons’ long-run education outcomes and in the intergenerational transmission of incomes and education. Based on 1984–2012 German Socio-Economic Panel Study data of sons and fathers, I show that fathers’ risk aversion is inversely related to sons’ long-run levels of education. A quasi-experimental setting provides no evidence for reverse causality. ...

Intergenerational Effects of Education on Risky Health Behaviours and Long-Term Health

This paper estimates the causal effects of parental education on their children's risky health behaviours and health status. I study the intergenerational effects of a compulsory schooling reform in Germany after World War II. Implemented across federal states at different points in time, the reform increased the minimum number of school years from eight to nine. Instrumental variable estimates ...
