The researchers analyzed survey data collected between 2020 and 2022 from the Generations and Gender Program for Denmark, Finland and Norway. “We specifically chose Scandinavian countries because they have a relatively high level of gender equality alongside a low fertility rate,” explains Nicole Hiekel, head of the Research Group Gender Inequalities and Fertility at the MPIDR.
