Welcome to my website! My name is Kieron Barclay and I am a postdoctoral Research Fellow in Demography at the Department of Social Policy at the London School of Economics and Political Science, working with Professor Mikko Myrskylä in the ERC funded project COSTPOST. I am also a Research Fellow at the Department of Sociology at Stockholm University, and at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research. This semester I am also a Visiting Postdoctoral Fellow at the Population Studies Center at the University of Pennsylvania. I received my PhD in Sociology from Stockholm University in December 2014, and my Masters degree in Sociology from the University of Oxford.
My research is in the field of social demography and uses quantitative analysis to address the relationship between socio-demographic conditions within the family and health, educational, and socioeconomic outcomes at various stages of the life course. In practice this has primarily meant applying statistical methods to high quality demographic data in order to examine the effects of factors such as birth order, family size, birth intervals, parental age at the time of birth, reproductive history, and marital status on later-life outcomes. In the past I have also worked on examining the potential consequences of sex ratio imbalances on demographic outcomes. My work has been featured in journals such as Demography, Population and Development Review, Social Science & Medicine, and Intelligence.
