In einer Grafik aktuell (@iabnews.bsky.social) zeige ich die Sätze des Elterngeldes inlfationsbereinigt im Vergleich zu anderen Sozialleistungen. Das Elterngeld wurde seit Einführung nicht erhöht; der Mindest- und Höchsatz haben real seitdem 27% an Wert verloren: www.iab-forum.de/graphs/elter...

Fast alle Menschen in Deutschland im Alter von 18 bis 74 Jahren nutzen regelmäßig digitale Plattformen. Das zeigt die Studie von Licia Bobzien (@liciabobzien) und Roland Verwiebe von der Universität Potsdam sowie Fabian Kalleitner (@kalf) von der LMU München: www.uni-potsdam.de/de/medieninf...

Forthcoming in European Societies and already at OSF Preprints: @beckerbastian.bsky.social and @norawaitkus.bsky.social's "Undeserving Heirs: How the Origins of Wealth Shape Attitudes Towards Redistribution" Link: osf.io/preprints/os...

We crowdsourced 85 teams to indep. computationally reproduce results from a single study in randomized conditions. Reproducibility: • depends heavily on the transparency of materials • high (~95%) for same sign/sig, but low (btw. 48-77% depending on transparency) when requiring within 0.1 effects

👀 Scroll, post, or lurk? Digital platform use varies by age! From #YouTube to #TikTok, how do different groups engage in #TechTrends? Check out this fresh #dataviz by Drs. @liciabobzien.bsky.social, Roland Verwiebe, & @kalf.bsky.social using #SOEP-IS! 🔗 doi.org/10.1177/2378...

Do different age groups use digital platforms differently? We (w Roland Verwiebe and @kalf.bsky.social) show: yes and no: doi.org/10.1177/2378...; @sociusjournal.bsky.social

Some interesting-for-survey-researchers new papers in the latest PSRM. First, does survey mode affect satisfaction with democracy? Consistent with previous studies on different topic, web respondents are more negative www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Inequality in housing is getting more attention. But how should we fight it? In a new video with Kathy Velikov & students, we describe the racial injustice of the US housing system and Detroit-based activists & scholars help us sketch alternatives www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iOE... #RealUtopia /1

Do you feel taxed fairly? Fabian Kalleitner & I show: the rich overestimate their tax contributions relative to the poor & vice versa; once the rich learn that the poor pay more taxes than they thought, they increase their willingness to pay taxes. doi.org/10.1093/esr/...
