• Parenthood and Well-Being: A Decade in Review. (2020, methodology): “Using the SOEP, Pollmann-Schult (2014) found that parenthood was related to increased life satisfaction only after controlling for increases in time demands and financial pressure, underscoring the demands–rewards perspective of parenthood.”
• How Parents Fare (2016, background): “The salience of the parental identity for women may make them more protective of the role and vulnerable to threats—such as market work—to their ability to enact it (Blair-Loy 2001; Pollmann-Schult 2014; Sayer 2005; Simon 1992).”
