Employment is widely considered a key coping strategy for women against the economic burden of divorce. However, few studies have explored how women adjust their labor supply across the divorce process, particularly considering the moderating role of children's presence and age. This study uses longitudinal data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP) from 1984 to 2021 in an event-study approach with fixed effects regressions and an extended control group design. This design allows group-specific age trends to be controlled for in moderation analyses.

This study investigates the family trajectories of young women in Mexico and Colombia, analysing changes across three birth cohorts and examining the evolving relationship between educational attainment and family trajectories. Utilizing data from the Colombian Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) and the Mexican Encuesta Nacional de la Dinámica Demográfica (ENADID), the study encompasses retrospective partnership and childbearing histories for 45,683 women.

Motherhood holds great importance in women's transition to adulthood in India, where childlessness is often perceived as an inability to conceive and experienced as a failure. However, with globalization and declining fertility rates, family dynamics are shifting, and childlessness appears as an evolving reality beyond biomedical challenges related to procreation. This research aims to investigate whether there are indications of an emerging category of women forgoing motherhood for reasons beyond a lack of reproductive agency.

Prevalent in the Global South, child marriage powerfully shapes women's work and family lives. Analyzing data from the Egypt Labor Market Panel Survey, we examine how child marriage influences the work-family life courses of Egyptian women between ages 6 and 30, to advance life course research in two crucial aspects. First, using multichannel sequence analysis, we identified six distinct work-family trajectories of Egyptian women who married as children and compared these with women who married as adults.

Incorporating human behavioral factors into travel demand analysis is increasingly critical in transportation planning. Perceived security is a key behavioral factor influencing urban travelers’ choices, particularly for active transportation modes like cycling and vulnerable road users like women. While prior studies have explored certain aspects of perceived security —mainly for pedestrians—the application of Machine Learning (ML) models to predict cyclists’ perceived security remains a relatively developing research area.

Notations are fundamental in mathematics and related fields, but their design has overlooked the diverse needs of different users. Recent insights into neurodiversity highlight how certain design choices can either hinder or facilitate comprehension for neurodiverse students.

Evidence from preclinical research suggests that dysfunction in thyroid hormones may increase ?-amyloid levels and tau phosphorylation, 2 hallmark features of Alzheimer's Disease(AD). This study showed a strong association between hypothyroidism and AD mortality.
