In its most basic form, the marriage squeeze hypothesis holds that marriage prospects are lower if the number of unmarried persons of the desired age is low. We propose to update the concept of the marriage squeeze in ways that make it more relevant for partnership and family formation today. This paper reviews ways of measuring the education-specific mating squeeze.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"color: #888888;\"><em>Posted August 12 2014 &#8211;<\/em><\/span><strong> <a title=\"&#091;Read more&#093;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WP16DeHauwEtAl2014.pdf\" onclick=\"javascript:_gaq.push(['_trackEvent','download','http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/WP16DeHauwEtAl2014.pdf']);\">Read more<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div><\/div><div class='clear_column'><\/div>\n<div class='full_width last_column'><div class='white'><\/div><\/div><div class='clear_column'><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":131,"menu_order":16,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"template-no-nav.php","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2408"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2408"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2408\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2935,"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2408\/revisions\/2935"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/131"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.FamiliesAndSocieties.eu\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2408"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
