Economic mobility in a youth cohort (n = 1956) was examined between 1979 and 1997. Increasing percentages of youth were found to reside in families with no change in economic status stratified by class. The rate of economic stasis of youth living in affluent families was more than twice that...

For example, Schafer compared the major mobility variables from about 30 travel surveys in more than 10 countries and found the regularities in tourism demand (Schafer, 2000). Chi verifies the asymmetric impact of economic policy uncertainty and exchange rates on international air travel demand (Chi...
