50666 - The Demography of Family Inequality and Wellbeing (Co-sponsored by Section on Sociology of Population)

Description

This session is jointly sponsored by the Family and Population sections. Demographic factors related to relationship formation and stability, transitions to parenthood, and family processes have important implications for population outcomes including marriage and fertility rates, the intergenerational transmission of inequality, and health disparities. Papers in this session will take a demographic perspective on these and other processes related to family formation, family inequality, and well-being broadly. Submissions taking account of diversity and variation in family relationships are particularly welcome.
