• How Long Should Parental Leave Be? Attitudes to Gender Equality, Family, and Work as Determinants of Women’s and Men’s Parental Leave in Sweden (2014, background): “In parallel, Duvander, Lappegard, and Andersson (2010) found that fathers’ parental leave use had greater impact on continued childbearing in Norway than in Sweden, possibly as there are more variations in use and in gender-equal norms in Norway.”
• Against all odds: Fathers’ use of parental leave in Germany (2009, background): “Most studies on fathers’ usage of parental leave have been conducted for the Nordic countries (Byrgen and Duvander, 2006; Duvander et al., 2010; Duvander and Jans, 2008; Lammi-Taskula, 2008; Lappegård, 2008; Sundström and Duvander, 2002).”
• Future fertility in low fertility countries (2014, background): “Gender equality also appears to promote family formation in the region, but not necessarily progression to third or later births (Duvander et al. 2010).”
• The state intervenes in the battle of the sexes: Causal effects of paternity leave (2011, unknown): “Some studies have examined the effect of the daddy quota using this analytical strategy (e.g. Haas and Hwang 2008, Duvander et al. 2010), but these studies do not establish causality since selection into taking parental leave is not accounted for.”
• Reserving Time for Daddy: The Consequences of Fathers’ Quotas (2019, unknown): “Moreover, paternity leave is correlated with shorter work hours for fathers (Haas and Hwang, 1999; Duvander et al., 2010), and shorter career breaks, longer work hours and improved labor market positions for mothers (Brandth and Kvande, 1998; Pylkkänen and Smith, 2003).”
