AGIPEB - Entscheidungen unter Unsicherheit. Analyse geplanter Institutionalisierungsprozesse in Paarbeziehungen unter dem Einfluss prekärer Beschäftigungsverhältnisse

The focus is on central decisions in the lifestyle of couples that lead to a higher degree of relationship solidification and for whom both the possibility of long-term planning and a low labour market risk are conducive. These include marriage and distillation intentions, but also highly budgeted investment decisions such as the acquisition of a property for the purpose of joint capital formation.

The main inspection is based on a sample of 1,083 persons who were interviewed by telephone in winter 2012/13. The target persons were individuals living in a partnership - both legitimate and illegitimate - with joint household management. One partner of each couple was interviewed, whereby the second partner is automatically excluded from the sample.
