... EDSN data follows similar methodological procedures and choices. Women with inconsistent birth histories (i.e., more than 25 years between age 10 and a first birth or birth intervals of less than 8 months or more ... See full document

... Table 2 compares the exact change in life expectancy at age a = 10, 30, 50, and 70, obtained with numerical integration and the approximate value derived from the linear approximation (8) when the age-specific ... See full document

... Analysing the interquartile range – the ages between which the central 50% of the population left the parental home – in Figure 10, it appears that the leaving home process became longer and more drawn out as the mean ... See full document

... The columns in Table 7 show five contrasts where the retrospective and prospective report of wanted wanted (rWpW) is the baseline comparison group for all other contrasts. The first column shows the unwanted unwanted ... See full document

... In Table 6 we display the results from adding the life-cycle factors to our preferred specification from column 3 of Table 2. As we explain in the discussion section below, a caveat of this approach is that these ... See full document

... Although we controlled for country-level fixed effects, sample sizes were not sufficient to implement country-specific analyses. Descriptive statistics on the prevalence of each cluster of family history by country ... See full document

... Before applying the method, Dorrington (2013) warns demographers to examine the data’s age structure of the population and the data’s relative completeness. As noted in our article (Section 3.1, Data), we assessed ... See full document

... Dependent variables. In our first set of multivariate analyses utilizing wave-one data only, we examine three dependent variables targeting fertility intentions, wants, and ideals. In a subsequent analysis, we utilize ... See full document

... Projected age profiles of death rates. Not surprisingly, methods differ substantially in how they project the evolution of age-specific death rates (Figure 1). The Bongaarts’ shifting model, which explicitly assumes age ... See full document
