Additionally, the negative effect for children from uni-educated families is mediated by the decreasing number of books at home and the increased probability of having an overqualified parent as uni participation expanded among parents, in line with our theoretical expectations.

Our results support both hypotheses 🥳

Uni expansion among parents is associated with a declining academic performance of children from university-educated families, as well as with a withering advantage over peers with no university-educated parents

Crucially, it is non-university-educated women who delay first motherhood when born in wealthier provinces, narrowing the gap with their university counterparts (who behave much more uniformly across the country).

The educational gradient in the timing of fertility is strongly negatively correlated with the GPD per capita💰: the richer the province, the smaller the gradient in age at first birth.

There is a clear geographical pattern in the educational gradient in the timing of first motherhood.

It is weaker in the North and Northeast of the country (plus Madrid), and stronger in the Northwest.

The correlation across provinces in the size of the educational gradient in occurrence and timing of first birth is weak.

One cannot be inferred from the other!❌

Census data plus mixture cure models show notable spatial variation in the educational gradient in first motherhood🤰

University-educated women are less likely to become mothers and do so later in life in all provinces, but the gap with non-university-educated women varies widely across Spain🗺️

🚀 Our monograph The Geography of Early Dropout In Spain is out! 🌍 #OA

🔗 www.fundacionareces.es/fundacionare...

Miguel Requena and I analyze early dropout at the provincial (NUTS3) level using 2011 and 2021 census data.

I'll be sharing key findings in the coming days. Starting with some maps! 🗺️👇

And there’s more!

There were positive spillover effects for schools in a 0.5km radius around the LEZ, and the impact was larger with longer and earlier exposure.
