Publication by @philippdierker.bsky.social & Martin Diewald! The study shows that low-income families support their children equally, while parents with higher income tend to give more support to children with lower grades. What does that mean for social mobility? www.demogr.mpg.de/go/schoolgrades

Excited to share that the first of my PhD papers, co-authored with Wiebke Schulz, is now published in "Research in Social Stratification and Mobility"! We look at adolescents' extracurricular activities and cognitive skills, revealing their potential to reinforce inequalities.
