My first PhD article has been published!
🔎 It examines how the relationship between flexible working time arrangements and self-reported work-to-life and life-to-work conflict is moderated by an (un)equal domestic labor distribution within heterosexual couples.
Happy to share that my last PhD article found a home at RSSM. Together with Julia Lang we examine how employees expect their co-workers to react (exit or voice) to perceived wage injustice—and how these expectations vary by gender and workplace context.

One month ago, Italians voted in a referendum on easing naturalisation rules for non-EU residents. The quorum wasn’t met, and many voters opposed the change anyway.
In this article, we analyse the economic impact of Italy’s slow, complex, and uncertain naturalisation process: NONE.
With conscription again under debate, @ivancanzio.bsky.social and I examined how conscription was institutionalized across 18 European countries and assessed how its suspension was associated with men’s early-career occupational placement.
Do waitresses receive the same occupational prestige as waiters?
Using German gendered occupational titles, we find that feminine job titles receive slightly lower prestige than masculine ones, especially among male-domindated occupations.
