Publikation Unemployment insurance and the family: heterogeneous effects of benefit generosity on reemployment and economic precarity(Society for Sociological Science, 08/2024) Kuhn, Ursina; Hevenstone, Debra; Vandecasteele, Leen; Sepahniya, Samin; Kessler, DorianWe investigate how unemployment insurance generosity impacts reemployment and economic precarity by family type. With Swiss longitudinal administrative data and a regression discontinuity design using potential benefit duration, we examine differences between single households and primary and secondary or equal earners, as well as differences by gender and presence of children. Less generous unemployment insurance (shorter potential benefit duration) speeds up reemployment for all family types during the period with benefit cuts whereas longer-term effects are stronger for single households, secondary and equal earners, and those without children. Economic precarity increases for singles, single-parents, and primary earners during the period with lower benefits though there are no long-term effects. We argue that those with higher financial responsibility (i.e., primary earners or those with children) face pressure to find jobs irrespective of benefit generosity whereas those with lower financial responsibility (i.e., secondary or equal earners and those without children) have more capacity to react.01A - Beitrag in wissenschaftlicher ZeitschriftPublikation How to improve participation in school oriented health promotion for disadvantaged parents(21.08.2012) Anliker, Susanne; Schmid, HolgerHealth promotion in the school setting is challenged by the fact that disadvantaged families with low economic, cultural and social resources do hardly participate in such programs. We investigated how to improve the reachability of disadvantaged parents in particular with migrant background. Motivators to improve participation in a particular health promotion program were identified by experts, and were put into practice in an elementary school in Switzerland. A number of 109 parents filled in a questionnaire about their motivation for participation. Parents with low motivation for participation indicated several decisive barriers: e.g. fear (not being able to help his/her child) and former discrimination experiences. However, the rate of participation improved from 26 to 49%, due to the implementation of the motivators. The results showed the importance of structural factors and network building to reach parents with high level of fear and low levels of motivation to participate in health promotion.04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation 06 - PräsentationPublikation Empowerment in family and school — EIFAS: An example of good practice(13.09.2007) Schmid, Holger04B - Beitrag KonferenzschriftPublikation The Eurosupport IV Study.
