The Effects of Infant and Child Mortality on Fertility
Further comment on V. K. Oppenheimer’s “The Life-Cycle Squeeze
Oppenheimer's paper Life-Cycle Squeeze: The Interaction of Men's Occupational and Family Life Cycles in the May 1974 issue of Demography deserves comment. She finds that, depending on their occupation, men's earnings peak at different ages. Relating this finding to the pattern of family growth over the family life cycle, she argues that the earnings of many husbands, particularly those in low status occupations, level off or decline before the ch…

Postamenorrheic versus postpartum strategies of contraception
The postpartum strategy of inserting an intra-uterine device shortly after a birth essentially eliminates the risk of conceiving again before starting contraception but maximizes the overlap between wearing time and postpartum anovulation when protection is not needed. In contrast, the postamenorrheic strategy of delaying insertion until right after the woman’s first menses all but removes overlap with anovulation but allows a chance of conceptio…
The size and structure of residential families, Guatemala City, 1964
In a review of census data for the periods 1945-54 and 1955-63, Burch discloses an increasing tendency for average household sizes to cluster at five to six members for developing nations, compared to three to four for developed nations.(1) Also, among developing nations he finds less than 50% of the population living in households containing three to six persons. This apparently contradicts Levy's general rule which prompted his study, that 'for…
Fertility and economic activity of women in Guatemala city, 1964
Data from a five percent census sample reveal that in Guatemala City in 1964 economically active women, especially domestic servants, had lower cumulative fertility than inactive women, partly because larger proportions of them had never married and were childless. However, even among ever married mothers there was a substantial differential, which was not due to differences in age at first birth. With respect to all women, cross tabulation and r…
Extended Family Structure and Fertility
A marked contrast exists between the wide acceptance of the proposition that the extended family encourages high fertility and the scarcity of relevant empirical evidence. 1 reason for this inadequacy has been the failure to deal with a number of conceptual and methodological problems involved in testing the proposition. A preliminary statement of some of these problems is presented. All but 1 of the few studies that has explored the relation bet…
Fertility and development in Brazil
In the past, one of the concomitants of development has been a sustained reduction in fertility. As a result of this experience, demographers hypothesize that in a society in which fertility is lower in urban areas, among the upper socioeconomic status groups and the better-educated, fertility will decline to a moderate level as the country changes from a rural, agricultural socioeconomic structure, with low levels of living and education, to an …
