The mechanisms of intergenerational status transmission in modern Scandinavia
Clark, Gregory; Hørlyk Kristensen, Martin - 2026
There is continued debate, with important social consequences, about how social status is transmitted between parents and children. In particular, how much does genetics as opposed to social causation matter? In an ingenious recent article, Collado et al. (2023), using an extended family lineage...

The myth of Nordic mobility : social mobility rates in modern Denmark and Sweden
Clark, Gregory; Hørlyk Kristensen, Martin - 2025
In this paper we estimate social mobility rates, free of measurement errors, using register data for Denmark and Sweden, 1968 to 2021. To correct for measurement error attenuation, we take ratios of the correlation of relatives at different locations in family trees, such as cousins relative to...

A tale of two transitions : mobility dynamics in the People's Republic of China and Russia after central planning
Butaeva, Kristina; Chen, Lian; Durlauf, Steven N.; … - 2025
This paper examines intergenerational mobility in the People's Republic of China (PRC) and Russia during their transitions from central planning to market systems. We consider mobility as movement captured by changes in status between parents and children. We provide estimates of overall...

Rising inequality, declining mobility : the evolution of intergenerational mobility in Germany
Baarck, Julia; Bode, Moritz; Peichl, Andreas - 2025
This paper is the first to show that intergenerational income mobility in Germany has decreased over time. We provide estimates of intergenerational persistence for the birth cohorts 1968-1987 and document that the rank-rank slope rises sharply for cohorts born in the late 1970s and early 1980s,...

Bivariate distribution regression : theory, estimation and an application to intergenerational mobility
Chernozhukov, Victor; Fernández-Val, Iván; Meier, Jonas; … - 2025
We employ distribution regression to estimate the joint distribution of two outcome variables conditional on covariates. Bivariate Distribution Regression (BDR) is particularly valuable when some dependence between the outcomes persists after accounting for the impact of the covariates. Our...

Intergenerational mobility in Ottoman Istanbul : evidence from court records
Coşgel, Metin Murat; Espín-Sánchez, José-Antonio; … - 2025
We use data from the Istanbul court registers spanning from the 16th-19th centuries to establish, for the first time, long-term trends in intergenerational mobility in a major premodern city. The dataset contains information on over 270,000 individuals who appeared in court in various roles,...

Intergenerational education persistence : evidence from molecular genetic data
Pereira, Rita Dias; Van Kippersluis, Hans - 2025
This paper exploits molecular genetic data to quantify genetic confounding in parent-child educational outcomes. We develop a model of the intergenerational transmission of education based on insights from the literature on social science genetics. The model distinguishes between two types of...

How do childhood environments contribute to intergenerational economic mobility? : evidence from 25 years of panel data in Egypt
Krafft, Caroline; Asʿad, Rāǧī; Li, Ruotong - 2025
How do childhood environments contribute to intergenerational economic mobility? This paper explores the relative roles of family background (parents' wages, income, and wealth during the early years), and neighbourhoods (including access to services during childhood), in determining...

Intergenerational mobility in socio-economic skills
Attanasio, Orazio P.; Paula, Áureo de; Toppeta, Alessandro - 2025
This paper investigates the intergenerational transmission of socio-emotional skills during childhood, using data from the 1970 British Cohort Study (BCS70) in the United Kingdom. This dataset enables us to measure two dimensions of socio-emotional development: internalising and externalising...

A lifecycle estimator of intergenerational income mobility
Mello, Ursula; Nybom, Martin; Stuhler, Jan - 2025
Lacking lifetime income data, most intergenerational mobility estimates are subject to lifecycle bias. Using long income series from Sweden and the US, we illustrate that standard correction methods struggle to account for one important property of income processes: children from affluent...
