However, findings differ across countries, and the channels for such transmission remain unclear. Using data from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions, we analyse whether working in the same occupation as parents, conditional on parents'' self-employment, is related to being self-employed. Results show that working in the same occupation as parents is statistically and significantly related to being self-employed, which may indicate the existence of intergenerational transmission of self-employment. Furthermore, this relationship is especially significant between fathers and sons. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/DGA/S32-20R info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/MICINN/PID2019-108348RA-I00 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 1.2 2023 ECONOMICS 341 / 600 = 0.568 2023 Q3 T2 0.376 2023 Economics and Econometrics 2023 Q3 2.9 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersion Molina, Jose Alberto Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-9437-4606 Velilla, Jorge Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-0553-6360 4000 415 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
