This article analyses neighbourhood effects on school achievement through the mediating effect of parenting and problematic behavior in the Netherlands. The results show that the effects of the proportion of immigrant groups and the mean property
values in the neighbourhood are unlikely to be mediated by parenting behaviours and problematic behaviour. They also show that parents are likely to adapt their parenting behaviours to demographic neighbourhood characteristics. For example, parents
in neighbourhoods with higher ethnic heterogeneity apply more protective parenting strategies.
The AA. use an explanatory mixed methods research design to enhance insight into the life course characteristics of separated parents involved in shared residence arrangements. Survey data derived from panel study and divorce are supplemented
with information from in-depth interviews. Shared residence parents seem to be a typical modern category of separated parents with a specific set of characteristics.
Soil parent material delineation using MODIS and SRTM data
The aim of the study was to develop a robust, remote sensing (MODIS and SRTM) based procedure to delineate soil parent material (PM) classes for small scale soil mapping applications. This quantitative procedure aimed to maintain the original
mapping concept and to develop an analogue database to the “manually” created, existing SOTER databases. A simplified soil parent material classification was developed and tested for remote sensing based application. Multitemporal, visible, near infrared
Les relations entre adolescents et grands-parents en Suisse : séparation conjugale et équilibre entre lignées
A partir d'une enquête statistique réalisée auprès d'adolescents en Suisse, les AA. rendent compte de la diversité des formes que peuvent prendre les relations petits-enfants/grands-parents. La dissolution du couple parental n'est pas associée à une

This paper investigates the changing pattern of intergenerational housing support between retired old parents and their children in Tianjin, and the legacy of public housing in shaping this pattern. It seeks to determine how this support depends
on whether parents have previously been allocated public housing and, if so, on whether they have disposed of it or have continued to occupy it. this research suggests that households are not independent units in the housing market and that parents
This article analyses accessibility to jobs from the perspective of single-parent house in Toronto. Individuals in this demographic segment are of interest due to the fact they often face the double burden of household and employment
that there are substantial differences in the levels of accessibility to jobs between members of single-parent households, in particular females, and members of other types of households.
Badlands denudation hot spots : The role of parent material properties on geomorphic processes in 20-years monitored sites of Southern Tuscany (Italy)
This paper shows the results of grain size, geochemical and mineralogical composition of parent materials from Upper Orcia Valley sites (Southern Tuscany), to further elucidate the role of their properties on processes acting on both bare
and vegetated surfaces. Parent materials properties are discussed with respect to the initiation and development of different badlands processes. In particular, clay dispersivity at different depths in the sample sites is examined as a well-known controlling
Paleo-pedological record of the Rocourt Pedosequence at Veldwezelt–Hezerwater (Belgian Pleistocene loess belt) : Part 1 — Evolution of the parent material
, CEC, base saturation, total Fe, Al, K, Na and Ca content, pH and electrical conductivity were established to reconstruct deposition dynamics, weathering and carbonate content of the parent material. Texture analysis confirms the petrostratigraphic
homogeneity of the parent material and suggests that it developed under a regime of fluctuating rates of primary dust deposition intermixed with periods of (fluvial) reworking of the dust. Strong weathering was identified in the lower stratigraphic unit
I don't like my children to grow up in this bad area : parental anxieties about living in informal settlements
L'article étudie la relation sociale entre parents et enfants dans un quartier d'habitat précaire de Durban. L'accent est mis sur la difficulté d'élever des enfants dans un milieu social touché par la pauvreté, et sur la manière dont les qualités
matérielles des espaces d'habitat précaire contribuent à créer un sentiment d'anxiété chez les parents. Ressemblances et différences avec des contextes générant de la pauvreté (pas nécessairement l'habitat précaire). Il n'est pas garanti que l'éradication de

This article traces how young Muslim and Buddhist Ladakhis in Ladakh’s Leh District are constituted as a category and site of territorial potential, and how they navigate and elude this positioning. I suggest that parents, political actors
Bedrock versus superficial deposits in the Swiss Jura Mountains : what is the legitimate soil parent material?
In the Swiss Jura Mountains, characterization and distribution of superficial deposits along a toposequence are used in order to decipher the polygenic sources of soil parent materials and question the importance of lithodependence in soil

analyzes confirmed autochthonous origin of the parent materials and excluded loess admixture. Macro- and micro-observations proved periglacial formation of deeper beds, while the pollen analysis confirmed the Holocene age of an uppermost sand layer. Finally
The erubáz soil, a shallow soil influenced by volcanic parent rocks is examined with special emphasis on its clay content and clay-mineral-composition. Several rofiles at 7 study areas and with 4 different parent material types are analysed. Bulk
soil mineralogical and clay-mineralogical properties are examined by X-ray diffractometry (XRD). According to the mineralogical analysis the presence of the unstable mafic silicates indicates that the composition of the parent rock is still well
Les AA. étudient le problème de la mixité ethnique dans les écoles de l’Est de Londres en insistant sur le comportement et la décision des parents d’envoyer leurs enfants dans ces établissements. Ils expliquent que la plupart d’entre eux acceptent
un certain degré de mixité mais qu’il est loin de leur idéal, particulièrement pour ceux les parents Blancs, un élément susceptible d’augmenter la ségrégation des groupes ethniques. Ils concluent que sont les classes les plus ambitieuses en matière de
réussite qui attirent le plus les parents, indépendamment de leur mixité ethnique.
