The paper I started three years ago is now published in @sfjournal.bsky.social! We study how obesity/body size as measured and socially evaluated explain gendered disparities in access to partnership and partnered sex. Thanks to my advisor and coauthor Linda Waite. doi.org/10.1093/sf/s... [1/7]

New paper in Social Science & Medicine with Meiyi Li and @michalengelman.bsky.social. We study spousal cognitive decline and own perception of marital strain. We find spouse’s cognitive impairment is linked to women facing higher marital strain but men report lower strain. doi.org/10.1016/j.so...
