Doepke, Matthias; Klasing, Mariko - 2026

Children and their parents resemble each other in terms of economic preferences such as patience and risk tolerance. What drives the intergenerational correlation in preferences? We build a model of preference formation that combines genetic transmission, state influence through childcare...

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...
