    Intimate partner violence under forced cohabitation and economic stress: Evidence from the COVID-19 pandemic
    (Elsevier, 2021-02) Arenas Arroyo, Esther; Fernández Kranz, Daniel; Nollenberger, Natalia; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    With the COVID-19 outbreak imposing stay at home and social distancing policies, warnings about the impact of lockdown and its economic consequences on domestic violence have surged. This paper disentangles the effect of forced cohabitation and economic stress on intimate partner violence. Using an online survey data set, we find a 23% increase of intimate partner violence during the lockdown. Our results indicate that the impact of economic consequences is twice as large as the impact of lockdown. We also find large but statistically imprecise estimates of a large increase of domestic violence when the relative position of the man worsens, especially in contexts where that position was already being threatened. We view our results as consistent with the male backlash and emotional cue effects.

    High Speed Internet and the Widening Gender Gap in Adolescent Mental Health: Evidence from Hospital Records
    (IZA, 2022-05) Fernández Kranz, Daniel; Nollenberger, Natalia; Arenas Arroyo, Esther; https://ror.org/02jjdwm75
    This paper studies the impact of internet access on adolescent’s mental health. Exploiting the exogenous variation in the deployment of optic fiber in different areas of Spain between 2007 and 2019, we find that high-speed internet (HSI) increased mental health diagnoses among girls. Exploring the mechanisms behind this effect, we show that HSI increases addictive internet use while reducing time spent on sleep, homework, and socializing with family and friends, with girls driving all these effects. We also provide evidence that HSI contributes to a significant increase in suicide among adolescents, with the effects again being larger among girls.
