Important new paper by @amatysiak.bsky.social and Daniele Vignoli showing that the association between women's employment and fertility is no longer negative in most high-income countries as work-family reconciliation policies and practices have increased. doi.org/10.1111/padr...

The End of an Era: The Vanishing Negative Effect of Women’s Employment on Fertility ANNA MATYSIAK AND DANIELE VIGNOLI
This paper examines whether women’s employment in the 21st century remains a barrier to family formation, as it was in the 1980s and 1990s, or—similar to men’s—it has become a prerequisite for childbearing. We address this question through a systematic quantitative review (meta-analysis) of empirical studies conducted in Europe, North America, and Australia. We selected 94 studies published between 1990 and2023 (N = 572 effect sizes). Our analysis uncovers a fundamental shift in the relation-ship between women’s employment and fertility. What was once a strongly negative association has become statistically insignificant in the 2000s and 2010s—and even turned positive in the Nordic countries, parts of Western Europe (France, Belgium, and the Netherlands), and Central and Eastern Europe. This shift is evident both among childless women and mothers and has occurred across all analyzed country clusters, except for the German/Southern European group, where the relationship has remained negative. These findings challenge longstanding assumptions about work–family trade-offs and suggest a reconfiguration of the economic and social conditions underpinning fertility decisions in contemporary high-income societies. The paper calls for a reconceptualization of the employment–fertility relationship and development of a new theoretical framework that better captures these evolving dynamics in contemporary high-income societies

Interesting paper on effect of interviewer gender on gender gap in reported housework. "women tend to report significantly more hours of housework when interviewed by a woman rather than by a man" link.springer.com/article/10.1...

The regression table examines factors influencing daily housework hours for women and men, highlighting key findings:

- **Female Interviewer:** Women spend more time on housework with a female interviewer, increasing the gender gap.
- **Paid Work Time:** More paid work reduces housework time for both genders, more so for men.
- **Income:** Higher income correlates with less housework for both.
- **Marital Status:** Married women do more housework; married men do less.
- **Children:** Having children increases housework for both, with significant effects across all child age groups.
- **Interview Length:** Longer interviews slightly increase men's housework time.

The model explains 16.7% of the variance for women and 9.09% for men, based on 18,965 individuals and 110,544 observations. (Summarized by mistral)
