National Longitudinal Study

Previous research on firearms has not adequately addressed a fundamental question about handgun ownership: Why do some people own handguns while most in the United States do not? We use data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) to examine adolescent and adult correlates of handgun ownership, including socialization, victimization and fear of crime, political ideology, and societal insecurities. We also investigate the differences between “typical” owners and “atypical” owners who own more handguns. We find that socialization, victimization, conservatism, and societal insecurity all independently increase the likelihood of handgun ownership, and atypical handgun owners are more likely to be conservative and to have experienced victimization than typical owners.

The Individual

This paper aims to investigate whether friends’ and peers’ behavior influences an individual’s entry into marriage and parenthood of young adults in the United States. After first studying entry into marriage and parenthood as two independent events, we then examine them as interrelated processes, thereby considering them as two joint outcomes of an individual’s unique, underlying family-formation strategy. Using the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, we engage in a series of discrete time event history models to test whether the larger the number of friends and peers who get married (or have a child), the sooner the individual gets married (or has a child). Results show strong cross-friend effects on entry into parenthood, whereas entry into marriage is only affected by more general contextual effects. Estimates of a multiprocess model show that cross-friend effects on entry into parenthood remain strongly significant even when we control for cross-process unobserved heterogeneity.
