Sisällön kuvaus

The data consists of writings in which respondents describe their experiences of shared custody and shared child expenses after divorce. The data were originally collected for a Master's thesis.

In the writing call, respondents were asked to write in their own words and in a free-form way about their own family's alternating housing practices. However, the writer was asked to take into account the writing prompts provided in the writing call. These questions asked about the way in which a child living in the family was accommodated, the way in which the costs of the children were shared within the family and how the child's opinion was taken into account in the accommodation arrangements. Respondents were also asked to include the ages and names of the children, without mentioning who lives in your household.

The background information asked included age and gender. The data were organised into an easy to use HTML version at FSD.
