Prejudices against the unemployed - empirical evidence from Germany.Gross, C., Gurr, T., Jungbauer-Gans, M., & Lang, S. (2020).Prejudices against the unemployed - empirical evidence from Germany. Journal for Labour Market Research, 54(3), 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12651-020-00268-8 Abstract
Prejudices against the unemployed pose an enormous threat to their self-confidence and can make it difficult for them to re-enter the labour market, resulting in further long-term unemployment. Given these high costs for the unemployed and for society as a whole, our knowledge of prejudices against the unemployed is surprisingly scarce. We focus on the question of what determines the strength of prejudice among employees. By applying social identity theory, we assume that people who are disadvantaged in the labour market in general, also hold stronger prejudices. In addition, we assume that social status mediates this association and that self-efficacy moderates it. |

The Impact of Informal Care and Employment on the Mental Health of the Caregiver.Eberl, A., Lang, S., & Seebaß, K. (2017).The Impact of Informal Care and Employment on the Mental Health of the Caregiver. Sozialer Fortschritt, 66(1), 77-96. http://dx.doi.org/10.3790/sfo.66.1.77 Abstract
This study examines if informal caregiving has a negative effect on the mental health of the caregiver, taking into account additional burdens such as that of holding down a job. The analyses are based on the German Socio-Economic Panel(GSOEP). We estimate fixed-effects regressions of a measure of caregivers' mental health(SF-12) on hours of informal caregiving, taking into account the relationships between the caregiver and the person being cared for. Our results show that hours of caregiving have a negative effect on mental health. Being employed for a few working hours only has a positive effect on the health status even in combination with informal care duties. An interaction of these factors reveals a positive effect on mental health. |
