The Turkish immigrant households and families in Melbourne, Australia.

"The purpose of this paper is to study some basic structures of the Turkish immigrant households and families in Melbourne, Australia. Data for the paper were obtained from a survey of the Turkish population of Melbourne which the author carried out in 1987.... An exploratory analysis of household structure of the sampled migrants not only offered a basis to develop a typology of Turkish migrant families but also became the initial step in discussing some aspects of the parents' concern for their children in Australia. Thus it was possible to address the cultural aspects of some changes emerging in intrafamilial relationships." (SUMMARY IN TUR)

Computer aided field editing in the DHS context: the Turkey experiment.

"In this study two types of field editing used during the Turkey Demographic and Health Survey are compared. These two types of editing are computer aided field editing and manual editing. It is known that manual editing by field editors is a tedious job in which errors especially on skip questions can be missed; however, with the aid of computers field editors could quickly find all occasions on which an interviewer incorrectly followed a skip instruction. At the end of the experiment it has been found...that the field editing done with the aid of a notebook computer was consistently better than that done in the standard manual manner."

Inter-provincial migration in Turkey and its socio-economic background: a correlation analysis.

An analysis of the socioeconomic factors affecting inter-provincial migration in Turkey is presented. The data concern the period 1970-1975 and are derived from census data on provincial age structure. The results suggest that the level of urban wages has little impact on migration and that push factors in the region of origin are significant. The findings also indicate that "it is not only...urban job creation that promotes migration but the stock of job opportunities as well. These stock variables of employment opportunities correlated significantly higher with migration rates than the flow variables of job creation." (summary in TUR)

Homogeneity in Turkish Fertility Survey: implications for cluster size derived from homogeneity in basic survey variables.

"This study examines several error statistics derived from the computed variance in basic survey variables of the Turkish Fertility Survey (1978). These are standard error, design factor, design effect and rate of homogeneity. [The] results are presented for the total sample as well as for subclasses. [It is demonstrated that] previous knowledge about the homogeneity and cluster size of main survey variables [will help] to design better surveys in the future. This process can be further extended for other survey variables by imputation." (summary in TUR)
