Simulating the effect of demographic events on the household composition.

"The aim of this paper is to measure the effects on household composition of changes in demographic events, e.g. mortality, fertility, marriage, divorce. British household data are taken from the General Household Survey and aged by simulation to 2001 using a 'Most Likely' model. Subsequently different assumptions of each demographic event are taken from 1991 so that the effects of perturbations within each event can be studied. Special features of the simulation model are the differentiations between cohabitation and marriage and separation and divorce, and the detailed breakdowns of household types such as lone parents into single and previously married women and men with children aged 0-4, 5-15 and 16 and over."

Patterns of marriage and cohabitation in Europe, with emphasis on Sweden.

"This article attempts to describe the reasons for the emergence and the rapid increase of cohabitation [in Sweden] and can be used as the basis for assumptions about the future of cohabitation in other European countries. In addition, the article analyzes some interesting differences between married and cohabiting couples."

[More separations than divorces].

"In the Netherlands, the yearly numbers of divorces have been rather stable since the mid eighties. Yet the numbers of separations of couples are on the increase. This is caused by two factors. First of all, more and more women cohabit at some point in their lives....Secondly, cohabiting couples have a much higher likelihood of disruption than married couples. About one in seven women born in 1950-1954 was ever divorced before age 38. If disruption of cohabitation is added to this figure, one in five women born in the early fifties has ever separated. For more recent birth cohorts, difference between divorce and disruption of both marriage and cohabitation is much larger. Of women born in the early sixties, only 4 per cent were ever divorced before age 28, whereas 17 percent of these women were ever separated." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[Change and consistency in nuptiality in Mexico].

The author uses census data to analyze recent trends in nuptiality in Mexico. She notes that "the fact that census data include both married and common-law couples enables...[questions] to be answered at the same time as it allows one to trace the development of the main indexes of marriage rates from 1930 to 1990. Differences between the sexes are established to provide a fuller analysis and a distinction is made between changes experienced by common-law and married couples." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

[Population and household forecasts, 1994].

"The Netherlands Population and Household Forecasts are updated annually by Statistics Netherlands.... In the 1994 based forecasts the median age at marriage is expected to be one year higher than in the previous forecasts (from 29 to 30 years for men born in 1985 and 27 to 28 years for women born in 1985). Also, the median age at first childbirth is expected to be a half year higher than in previous forecasts. Furthermore, non-married cohabitation is expected to rise even faster than in former forecasts.... The increase in one-person households during this period will be about 610 thousand and the number of couples (with or without children) will increase by 330 thousand." (SUMMARY IN ENG)

Religious identification and marriage.

"This study analyses religious intermix in Australia for both married and de facto couples. It uses 1991 Australian Bureau of Statistics customised matrix data purchased by the author.... These data indicate that religious intermixing in Australia is only numerically significant amongst dominant religious groups.... It seems that in de facto relationships religious adherence has little effect on choice of partner."

[Population and household forecasts 1995].

"The Netherlands Population and Household Forecasts are updated annually by Statistics Netherlands. In the 1995-based forecasts the short-term assumptions on fertility and immigration are revised downwards in comparison with the previous forecasts. As a result the forecast of total population size is lower: according to the new forecasts total population size in 2010 will be 16.7 million compared with 16.8 million according to the previous forecast."

[A significant increase in the number of never-married couples with children].

The author reports on the number of never-married couples with children in the Netherlands. "There are 2.4 million families with children, of which about 2 million [are] married couples. According to the 1994 National Household Forecasts these numbers will be nearly constant between 1995 and 2010.... It is expected that in the future the percentage of cohabiting couples that will marry when they want to have children will decrease. This is why the number of never married couples with children living at home will grow by 75% between 1995 and 2010." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
