- Reposted by LIFELONGMOVE ProjectThe last piece of my PhD thesis is now published on @demresjournal.bsky.social 🎉 Using retrospective data from @usociety.bsky.social, I find that only a minority of childhood migrants arrived in the UK with their parents. Read more 👉 doi.org/10.4054/DemR...
- Moving homes, changing perspectives: How residential and social mobility in childhood shape locus of control and adult mental health Our team members Riccardo Valente and @svidal.bsky.social explore it in a new paper at SSR. Check it out, it’s open access: doi.org/10.1016/j.ss...
- Reposted by LIFELONGMOVE ProjectDouble participation of @lifelongmove.bsky.social members in a session of the @sllshome.bsky.social conference 2025.

- Reposted by LIFELONGMOVE Project📢New Publication with A Bernard & @pmcmullin.bsky.social Individuals who moved during childhood are more likely to feel often lonely—especially with repeated moves. Siblings help. Duration matters. The impact is stronger in individualist societies.🔗 link.springer.com/article/10.1...
- Big congrats on this stellar piece!
