On this page, I list some of my research interests and projects. I have done a lot of work on divorce. Now I am trying to move on to other topics, but still find myself being dragged back in due to some new data, smart collaborators, or the occasional good idea.

The last few years, I have done several projects on residential segregation. One is focused on the causes and consequences of ethnic and socioeconomic segregation in Norway, while the other, ResSegr, is a European comparative project with researchers from five different countries.

Much of my work uses administrative register data. In Norway and the other Nordic countries, we have access to this amazing resources for research. Unfortunately, this resource comes with its own challenges for scientists. Transparency is less when data are so strongly protected as these data are. Replication is difficult, and data sharing illegal.
