Minipanels

An innovative aspect of the NKPS is the use of so-called mini panels, to supplement the data collected in the large-scale survey. Mini panels are small, qualitative studies, which – like the large-scale survey – have a panel structure in that they are repeated over time.

Here is an overview of the mini panels:

• Division of household tasks and the arrival of the first child (Wiesman, UU)
• Ethnicity, gender, and intergenerational solidarity (Schans, UU)
• Non-standaard work hours (Mills, RUG)
• Migrants in the family (Verkuyten, UU)
• Black sheep in the family (Komter, UU)
• Low practical solidarity vis-à-vis aging parents (Stuifbergen, UU)
• Deciding to have a first child (Rijken, UU)
• Work-care arrangements of co-resident and non co-resident couples (Knijn, UU)
• Housing arrangements of divorced parents and their children (Karsten, UvA)
• The retreat from marriage (Mills, RUG)
• Living Apart Together (LAT) relationships: Antecedents and consequences (Gierveld, NIDI)
• Lonely but not alone: Measuring loneliness in migrant samples (De Valk, NIDI)
