CPC seminar: First steps from a micro towards a multi-level approach in demography, Thursday 17 January 2013, 3pm

All are welcome to a joint CPC and Care Life Cycle (CLC) seminar with Sabine Zinn, NEPS (National Educational Panel Study), University of Bamberg.

This talk will propose a way to extend a continuous-time microsimulation model, introducing a simulation model and related simulation techniques to account for interdependencies between the life-courses of spouses of (heterosexual) partnerships.

The presenter will propose to model couple behaviour by considering both spouses of a pair jointly. The capability of the novel microsimulation will be illustrated using a simplified example that aims at forecasting the contemporary Dutch population. Partnership stability and individual propensity to quit smoking (considering dual and single-smoker couples) will be analysed.

Date: Thursday 17 January

Time: 3pm
