By analyzing these areas, the review identifies key theoretical frameworks, focusing on social position effects and mobility effects, and evaluates their alignment with empirical findings. For position effects, evidence suggests that destination status often outweighs origin status in shaping individual outcomes. For mobility effects, 58 % of studies either report non-significant results or do not explicitly examine mobility effects. Among the significant findings, the effects of mobility remain mixed and context-dependent. However, upward mobility generally benefits health and well-being, whereas downward mobility tends to have a detrimental effect. Recent studies have introduced methodological innovations such as mediation and counterfactual analyses. Still, key challenges remain. Subgroup analyses by gender and race/ethnicity are rare, findings are not always reported in a comparable way, and contextual factors are often missing. The review concludes that while DRM has helped clarify the role of social mobility in shaping individual outcomes, the field would benefit from greater transparency, more consistent reporting, and stronger attention to structural and demographic variation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47384,"journal":{"name":"Research in Social Stratification and Mobility","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101047"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143859897","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, the impact of these concurrent trends on educational sorting in unions and marriages remains unclear. Using data from France (1962–2011) and the US (1960–2015), we examined how (a) educational expansion and (b) the changing gender-education association contributed to changing sorting outcomes in marital and non-marital different-sex unions. Counterfactual decomposition techniques revealed two main trends. First, the changing gender-education association – apart from educational upgrading – has promoted rising hypogamy (she is more educated than he) and declining hypergamy (he is more educated than she). Second, educational expansion is associated with rising proportions of homogamous, hypogamous, and hypergamous unions involving more educated individuals and declines in these union types with less educated women and men. However, the impact of these changes on overall homogamy and heterogamy trends differs across countries. For example, while the increasing supply of highly educated individuals has promoted hypogamy in France it has offset hypogamy in the US. Our findings contribute to ongoing debates about the structural effects of educational expansion and the reversing gender imbalance in education on the formation of different-sex unions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47384,"journal":{"name":"Research in Social Stratification and Mobility","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101044"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143855186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While a growing body of research has documented these trends in Western societies, it remains uncertain whether similar patterns exist in non-Western contexts with more traditional gender norms. In addition, little research has differentiated between marriages where both spouses have high levels of education and those where both have low levels of education, as both types of marriages have been classified as educational homogamy. To address these gaps, this study analyzes marriage and divorce registration data to examine changes in couples’ educational pairings and marital dissolution in South Korea between the 1991 and 2018 marriage cohorts. The findings reveal that although female hypogamy used to be associated with a higher divorce risk than hypergamy, this gap has been narrowing and is nearly closed among those married in the 2010s. Moreover, the gap in divorce risk between college-educated and non-college-educated homogamous couples has been widening.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47384,"journal":{"name":"Research in Social Stratification and Mobility","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101041"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143885941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Especially given that girls tend to have higher achievement across levels of education, some scholars and commentators have begun to raise questions about which men and women, in terms of academic qualifications, attend colleges in the U.S.—particularly elite colleges that are associated with the greatest economic and social returns. We assess these questions using data from the Education Longitudinal Study of 2002 (ELS-02) and the High School Longitudinal Study of 2009 (HSLS-09), two nationally representative datasets collected during this recent era of heightened college competitiveness. We find that men and women had roughly equal chances of attending top colleges given equal academic qualifications. Importantly, though, we observe large changes at the bottom of the academic hierarchy, with less-prepared men increasingly opting into two-year colleges and attending higher education at similar rates as comparably qualified women. Thus, while much commentary tends to focus on elite institutions, recent changes at non-elite institutions are much more consequential for broader educational trends.

While social class has long been established as a predictor of political behaviour, less attention has been paid to the influence of subjective status, an individual’s self-assessed position within the social hierarchy. Drawing on nineteen waves of data from the International Social Survey Program from 2002 to 2021 across twenty-five European countries, this paper examines how social class and subjective status independently and jointly influence electoral participation. The findings indicate that while social class remains a significant determinant of electoral participation, subjective status offers further insight. Individuals with higher subjective status are more likely to vote, regardless of their social class. Moreover, within social classes, particularly the working class, participation rates are stratified by subjective status, with a notable gap between individuals with high and low subjective status. By employing Linear Probability Models with Country-Year Fixed Effects, the study accounts for cross-national differences and provides a robust analysis of electoral participation in Europe. These results contribute to a deeper understanding of political inequality, suggesting that subjective aspects of social stratification should be considered alongside traditional class-based analyses to fully grasp the factors influencing political participation in European democracies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":47384,"journal":{"name":"Research in Social Stratification and Mobility","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 101039"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143705379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The former is about inequality across heterosexual working-age couples, and their tendency to polarise between dual earning and dual workless. The latter shows that inequality persists within dual-earning couples, with women more likely than men to be in part-time work. The paper studies 11 European countries since 1983. It first documents long-run trends in dual earning, employment polarisation and part-time work. It then formally links the latter two notions, by developing a novel shift-share equation to explain the rise of dual-earning in terms of changes in levels of part-time and full-time work and changes in how equally or unequally they are distributed across couples. It shows that part-time employment increased the levels of employment without really changing the way employment is distributed across couples. On the other hand, full-time employment has become much more unequally distributed across couples over time, particularly following the 2008 crisis, a period during which the rise of female full-time work accelerated and male full-time work declined.
