The PhD and Postdoc researchers will work in the project ‘The roles of siblings and school peers in young adults’ life-course events’, led by Principal Investigator Clara H. Mulder and funded by an Open Competition Large grant from the Dutch Science Foundation (NWO).
The research team will further include a postdoc researcher, an assistant professor who will co-supervise the PhD project, and collaborators from the University of Groningen and Statistics Netherlands (CBS). In the project, we aim to identify the roles of siblings and school peers in the occurrence, timing, and outcomes of important life-course events in young adulthood. The events are leaving the parental home, residential relocations, and entry into post-secondary education and the labour market. We will investigate differentiation in sibling and school-peer roles with regard to advantage versus disadvantage, gender, migrant background, age, and time period.
The team will use register data covering the entire population of young adults in the Netherlands, including newly developed family and school-peer network data, and analyse these data with advanced statistical methods. The results may help combat inequality and enhance young adults’ ability to realise their potential.
The PhD researcher's envisaged role will be to work on leaving the parental home or, according to preference and expertise, residential relocations (residential mobility, internal migration). The end product will be scientific journal articles, to be combined in a PhD thesis. The PhD researcher will also write outreach articles and help organise stakeholder workshops. A contribution to teaching is expected.
The Postdoc researcher will, in turn, work on entry into post-secondary education and the labour market, to collaborate with the other team members on this and other topics, and co-supervise the PhD student. The Postdoc researcher will write scientific journal articles and outreach articles, and will take the lead in the organisation of stakeholder workshops.
