[Relations and childbearing in 1983].

This article deals with relationships and childbearing as observed in the 1983 survey of the well-being of the population (WBP'83), a survey in which a sample of Dutch citizens aged 18 years and over was interviewed. The demographic part of the survey can be considered as a continuation of the Netherlands Fertility Surveys 1977 and 1982 (NFS'77 and NFS'82) as well as the 1980 survey on the well-being of the population (WBP'80). As the fertility surveys consist of interviews with women of reproductive ages, only the well-being surveys are of particular interest as they also consist of interviews with older women and with men. As cohabitation is on the increase and many youngsters expect ever to cohabit, one could wonder whether these phenomena will result in a continuing decrease of marriages or in a delay of marriages until older ages. The latter hypothesis would seem to make more sense, since the majority of the interviewed persons, even among the youngest, is already married or expects to do so. After the sharp decreases in the average number of children per person, a more stable pattern can be observed in the youngest generations. The expected ultimate numbers of children to persons born in the 1950s and early 1960s are, on average, just below the level of replacement. However, a somewhat lower level can even be expected, as research on the reliability of fertility expectations shows that many women, expecially (still) childless women, overestimate their future number of births. The fertility expectations of men and women show remarkable agreement. However, men do not know the future number of children they expect to have in more cases than women. This implies that the men's answers are less suitable for quantitative calculations.

Marital distance and its geographical orientation in England and Wales, 1979.

"A representative sample of just over one thousand marriages solemnized in England and Wales in 1979 is used to analyse the distribution of the distances between the partners' addresses at marriage....according to various social and demographic variables also derived from the same source. Comparison with other surveys suggests that marriages in which both partners give the same address are likely to be those of couples who cohabit before marriage. Partners who work in unskilled manual occupations, or who marry with a civil ceremony, or who have been married before, appear more likely than the average to cohabit. Of the marriages where different addresses are given, about one-half bring together partners living within 5 km of each other." It is found that "there is a strong relationship between high social class and increased marital distance, and also between greater marital distance and older ages up to about age 40. Longer-range marriages show clear evidence of geographical orientation, the effect being more pronounced at longer distances. This is attributed to variations in population density over the country and geographical constraints on settlement patterns."

[Which women experience divorce?].

"This study reports on the determinants of divorce of married Dutch women, born between 1950 and 1969.... The impact of several factors on the divorce process is examined.... The analyses show that the women who have the highest divorce rates grew up in a big city, cohabited before marriage (and are or were religious), married before age 21 in the period 1980-88 and had a child before, or within six months after, the wedding. On the basis of these results, it is estimated that 20% will experience divorce within the first five years of their marriage. The data for the analyses have been derived from The Netherlands Fertility Survey (1988)...." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
