An age and parity dependent model for birth intervals of non-contraceptive population.

"In this paper [an] age dependent model [for estimating birth intervals] is constructed which assumes that the women have already crossed the age of maximum fertility at the time of observation. The parameters of the model are assumed to depend upon the parity." This model is based on an earlier age-dependent model by the same authors and was designed to account for late marriage and high parity. The model was applied to information on 203 married, non-contracepting women from a village in Haryana, India, collected in May and June of 1978. (SUMMARY IN FRE AND ITA)

[[Attitudes toward marriage and their effect on expected life course patterns of unmarried Japanese women]].

"The aim of this paper is to study the perspectives unmarried women [in Japan] hold towards marriage, and towards their life course. This paper will also attempt to determine how changing life course perspectives among unmarried women are influencing the trend towards later marrying ages. [Data are from a] sample of 2,605 unmarried women aged 18-34 derived from the 9th National Fertility Survey conducted...in 1987....[The author finds that] while still planning to marry eventually, more women are putting off marriage. In conclusion, the increase in the proportion of unmarried women...is not so much because they have chosen the unmarried life course in order to pursue their careers, but rather merely because they are putting off marriage until later."

"This article is Part 2 of the study on the method for projecting households [in Japan] by family type.... Part 1 was on modelling the transition process among different family types of households headed by [persons] over 35 years old, and on the method for projecting households by family type using the transition model.... Part 2 focuses on the method for projecting households in the formation stage headed by [those] under 34 years old.... Among projection outcomes, the proportion never married of males aged 30-34 goes up from 32.8 per cent to 37.3 per cent between 1990 and 2010, and the proportion never married of females aged 25-29 from 40.4 per cent to 47.1 per cent. [The] tendency of late marriage will continue to the beginning of the twenty-first century." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
