Marrying a U.S. citizen does NOT automatically grant a green card. 1.5 million US citizens are married to an undocumented spouse who cannot adjust their status because there is NO way to do it. This puts all their family members in emotional limbo.

Another #MIGFERT article by Nasim A. Mondal, Agnieszka Fihel &me! Polish women’s fertility in NE surges post-migration but drops after 4 yrs. Tempo distortions mask varied childbearing patterns, most evident for those moving in peak reproductive years. www.demographic-research.org/articles/vol...

The 1st article from the #Ukrainian part of my MIGFERT project at @cmr-warsaw.bsky.social. We analyse how, faced with prolonging war, people craft neutral narratives of the future and conditional reproductive plans, confronting individual preferences with collective goals. doi.org/10.1002/psp....

Most Americans want childcare to be more cheaper and more accessible. They don’t care about birth rates. None of the various pronatalist efforts under consideration by this administration will improve our childcare infrastructure & make it more affordable. apnews.com/article/pron...

Brutal attack at our university this week www.bbc.com/news/article... Such things almost never happen in Poland. The attacker is a 22 years old Polish law student, known to follow far right parties and organisations on social media.

Here's an update on sociology (and some demography) journal editorial polices with regard to sharing preprints before submission and after acceptance. A big improvement from the last edition of this table. With one exception.

Statistics Poland publishes 2 different population size estimates each year, depending on how long-term immigration and emigration are accounted for. While Polish demographers have learnt to cope with the inconsistencies, experts from abroad and local authorities are struggling 1/4

New article by me! It's a common mistake to think the TFR is a prediction of the average number of children women will have over their lifetimes. But it's not. The TFR can decline even when the eventual number of children per woman stays constant or even increases; the opposite can happen too. 🧵

“The drop has been observed across all population groups. However, the most significant decline has been in first births. Surveys indicate that a childfree lifestyle is becoming more common,” researcher Julia Hellstrand says. #Fertility #BirthRate #Demography lesglorieuses.fr/falling-birt...

As a journal editor for a few decades I find it pleasing to watch scholars mature. They eventually realize that journal refeering is not about how many papers they can knock down but how many they can lift up.

Are there spotless population registers? Of course not. Are some population registers so bad they are useless for research? Let's learn from the best: Eleonora Mussino.

Does #fertility depend on sex of existing children for #migrants and non-migrants? Parents of Turkish descent in Europe are more likely to stop having children once they have a son; their non-migrants comparators in Turkey continue #childbearing regardless 1/2
