CDE’s research is focused in five primary research areas: Families and Family Change Health and Biodemography Inequality, Poverty, Wealth, and Mobility Spatial and Environmental Demography Gender and Reproductive Health
Zach Ward, Associate Professor of Economics, Baylor University Social mobility over multiple generations is often lower than predicted by two-generational data, suggesting that traditional estimates fail to capture long-run mobility. Using novel US data (1850-1940) that links over 1.7 million individuals across four generations, we find that the economic status of great-grandchildren is strongly tied […]
Demography Seminar (DemSem) Presented by Rahi Abouk (CDE Visiting Scholar; William Paterson University).

Lauren Gaydosh, Associate Professor of Sociology, UNC Chapel Hill Many of the biological measures that we use to interrogate health risks have been developed in samples of older adults. Their association with sociodemographic characteristics and prediction of health and aging outcomes earlier in the life course is understudied. In this talk, I will provide an […]
Population Research Discovery Seminar Daniel Parker, Population Health & Disease Prevention, University of California Irvine Quantifying armed conflict is challenging, as traditional conflict data often rely on incomplete reporting and typically focus on metrics like the number of airstrikes.

Presented by Jinkook Lee (USC).
We study the lifetime banning, as introduced by United States Public Law 104-193, of individuals convicted of felony drug offenses after August 22, 1996 from ever receiving future SNAP benefits. Using a regression discontinuity design that leverages CJARS criminal history records with federal administrative and survey data, we estimate the causal impact of safety net […]

Population Research Discovery Seminars Lake Lui, Sociology, National Taiwan University Grounded in the literature on the deinstitutionalization of marriage, this presentation explores why, despite holding diverse ideologies about marriage, people in Taiwan have not widely practiced alternatives such as long-term cohabitation or singlehood. The analysis is framed within the cultural-cognitive approach of neoinstitutionalism, examining how […]
Polarization in U.S. state policy has driven geographic disparities in population health, but most studies focus on concurrent policy contexts rather than cumulative exposure over the life course. A life course perspective is crucial because individuals experience varied policy environments at different stages, shaping long-term health outcomes, including cognitive health. Using restricted-access data from the […]
