    The relationship between processes and time-varying covariates is of central theoretical interest in addressing many social science research questions. On the one hand, event history analysis (EHA) has been the chosen method to study these kinds of relationships when the outcomes can be meaningfully specified as simple instantaneous events or transitions. On the other hand, sequence analysis (SA) has made increasing inroads into the social sciences to analyze trajectories as holistic "process outcomes." We propose an original combination of these two approaches called the sequence analysis multistate model (SAMM) procedure. The SAMM procedure allows the study of the relationship between time-varying covariates and trajectories of categorical states specified as process outcomes that unfold over time. The SAMM is a stepwise procedure: (1) SA-related methods are used to identify idealtypical patterns of changes within trajectories obtained by considering the sequence of states over a predefined time span; (2) multistate event history models are estimated to study the probability of transitioning from a specific state to such ideal-typical patterns. The added value of the SAMM procedure is illustrated through an example from life-course sociology on how (1) timevarying family status is associated with women's employment trajectories in East and West Germany and (2) how German reunification affected these trajectories in the two subsocieties.

    Data from German social security notifications and internal procedures of the Federal Employment Agency are an important source for analyzing labor market trajectories. However, for East Germans these data are only fully available from 1992 onwards. As a consequence of German reunification, by 1992 significant fractions of East Germans had already lost their jobs, had changed their occupations and industries, and had moved to West Germany. We partially close the gap in the data by linking the "Integrated Employment Biographies" - that start in 1992 for East Germany - with the GDR's "Data Fund of Societal Work Power" from 1989. The new data set permits the analysis of phenomena such as unemployment, job mobility, and regional mobility. It can also be used to refine the existing knowledge of the individual-level labor market consequences of German reunification. Our long-term goal is to make the new data set available to the research community via the Research Data Center of the Federal Employment Agency. Die Daten aus der deutschen Sozialversicherung und den internen Prozessen der Bundesagentur für Arbeit sind eine wichtige Quelle für die Analyse von Arbeitsmarktbiographien. Für Ostdeutsche sind diese Daten allerdings erst ab 1992 vollständig verfügbar. Als Folge der deutschen Wiedervereinigung hatten bis 1992 bereits große Anteile von Ostdeutschen ihre Arbeit verloren, ihre Berufe und Industriezweige gewechselt und waren nach Westdeutschland umgezogen. Wir schließen die Lücke in den Daten teilweise, indem wir die "Integrierten Erwerbsbiographien" - welche 1992 für Ostdeutschland beginnen - mit dem „Datenspeicher Gesellschaftliches Arbeitsvermögen“ der DDR aus dem Jahr 1989 verknüpfen. Der neue Datensatz ermöglicht die Analyse von Phänomenen wie Arbeitslosigkeit, berufliche Mobilität und regionale Mobilität. Er kann außerdem genutzt werden, um das bestehende Wissen über die Konsequenzen der deutschen Wiedervereinigung für individuelle Arbeitsmarktbiographien zu verfeinern. Unser langfristiges Ziel ist es, den neuen Datensatz für die Forschungsgemeinschaft über das Forschungsdatenzentrum der Bundesagentur für Arbeit verfügbar zu machen.
