[Strong increase in unmarried couples: some main results from the Annual Household Statistics, 1988-1994].

"The [Netherlands] Annual Household Statistics are based on the Labour Force Survey. Since 1988 the main trends show an increase of not-married couples who live together (with or without children), an increase of married couples without children and an increase of one-person households. Households consisting of married couples with children are on the decrease." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[The increase in cohabitation: changes in related demographic behavior].

"The Dutch period- and age-specific hazard rates of marriages, cohabitation, [and] dissolution of cohabitation are studied. Also, family formation according to living arrangement of the mother is examined. The number of cohabiting persons has risen markedly.... Rates of direct marriage have declined.... The increased period of cohabitation is mainly linked with a delay in marriage among young cohabitors; it does, however, not coincide with a decreasing risk dissolution.... Fertility rates of married women have risen across the birth cohorts, while fertility rates of cohabiting women and women living without partner have remained fairly stable." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[The hidden family].

"Dutch society witnesses a continuous growth in the number of both singles and cohabitors. Despite this fact most young people indicate that they eventually desire to marry and to have children.... When cohabitation is not recorded or registered in a uniform manner, statistics which consider only married couples with or without children as families underestimate the de facto number of families. If both married and unmarried couples are considered as family nuclei, as recommended by the United Nations, the total formal number of families in the Netherlands has to be augmented with approximately half a million ¿hidden' families consisting of unmarried couples."

[Description of a marital mobility model and its application to Quebec].

"The marital mobility model allows for the simultaneous study of the formation and break-up of couples in a given cohort. The model is equally suited for longitudinal and for period analysis. Its essential feature is the construction of a multiple status life table that deals either with initial status changes or with successive ones. Preliminary results obtained for Quebec indicate that, in recent generations, individuals marry less and divorce more; at the same time the prevalence of cohabitation and the number of births out of wedlock both continue to increase."

[The reliability of the expectation (not) to have a child within three years].

The author examines the reliability of fertility expectations in the Netherlands over a three-year period starting in 1982. The data are from the 1982 and 1985 Netherlands Fertility Surveys. "On the individual level the expectations of 86% of all women turned out to be consistent with the demographic behaviour in the following three years. Of the women who had expected to have a child 63% had had one. Of the women who had not expected to have a child 92% indeed did not.... On the aggregate level the forecast was reasonably accurate: 21% of all women had expected to have a child whereas 20% had had one. Obviously the forecast error is larger for some categories of women than for others: the most deviant are the cohabiting women who show a rather large overestimation. But generally speaking the results of this analysis are promising for the use of short-term birth expectations in population forecasts." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[In and out of wedlock. An empirical study on changing attitudes toward marriage and parenthood].

"The theory of 'individualization' offers a useful framework for understanding the present changes in partnerships, marriage, and parenthood.... This paper presents results of a 'qualitative' study which, in addition to a general trend towards individualization, reveals differences according to socio-regional milieus. These differences are reflected in four areas: cohabitation, marriage, the conflict between parenthood and career, and sex roles within partnerships.... The observed trends support the notion that the future will bring a polarization of life styles: a family-oriented and an individualized style." The geographical focus is on Germany.
