Several of these issues are already addressed by the ÖBB through women-only cabins and new sleeping pods. However, an expansion of service and lower prices could influence more people to select a more sustainable travel option.

The @unsereOEBB has expanded NightJet service and purchased new sleeper cars. 🚂😴 What motivates or prevents people from taking the train? In a new peer-reviewed study, we look at determinants of night train use. @Stefanie_Peer

Meanwhile, high prices, long travel times, sharing cabins, and personal security act as barriers to selecting night trains. The last two are stronger for women than men.

@CosmoStrozza @CPop_SDU @RockwoolFonden I was thinking in terms of a selection effect. Individuals that never partner might have been less attractive on the marriage market due to chronic illness or specific behavior that are correlated with earlier mortality. Hence they are single for the same reason they die younger.

@HonorataBogusz This study also only considers individuals who pursued an academic career. That means there is a large self-selection into an unhealthy (in the sense you write about) working atmosphere. That is why is was not surprising "work-life balance" was not higher.

Not only where we live, the tenure of the housing, or being in an adequate dwelling matter when becoming a parent 🏨👨‍🍼🏚️🤱. Our attachment to the neighbourhood changes these relationships. Come see me talk about it!
