Do you happen to work with data from the Integrated World Values/European Values Study? If so beware: there is a rather influential coding error in the variable on religious denomination (F025). Go and check e.g. Spain and Germany and compare to F025_EVS and F025_WVS @gesis-dataservices.bsky.social

Europe's MSCA postdoctoral fellowships are now attracting many researchers who would have gone to the US. So the payline has dropped below 10% (~1,600 fellowships to 17k applicants). Super tough situation. One more reason to double the next Horizon budget, as proposed by the EU Commission.

The study, based on GGS @ggp.bsky.social & ESS @ess-survey.bsky.social, shows that young people all over EU consider it ideal to start to cohabit, marry, and become parents during their 20s but, on average, experience these events later than their ideal timeline.
