Human sex ratio as a function of the timing of insemination within the menstrual cycle: A review
A review of the beliefs and research results on the influence of the time of insemination on the sex ratio is presented. The ancient Greek notion that more males were produced by early postmenstrual insemination was supported as late as the early 1900s, although, by then, that belief was not uncontested. The view soon changed to the one of Dechman in which midcycle insemination favored the birth of males because of the deterioration of the ovum a…
The temporal relationship of marriage, conception, and birth in Massachusetts
An investigation into the timing of first births in relationship to the date of marriage in Massachusetts confirmed the finding of previous national and local birth timing studies that first births likely to have been conceived before the marriage of their parents constitute a substantial proportion of all first births. The differential frequency of premaritally conceived births among various subgroups appeared to account for the variation noted …
Illegitimate and premaritally conceived first births in Massachusetts, 1966–1968
While the primary, culturally endorsed prototype for parenthood in the United States is one of marriage, followed by conception and birth, recent studies (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1969; U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare, 1968a) have shown substantial departure from this traditional childbearing pattern and deviations in timing within different patterns. Two deviations of the marriage-conception-birth sequence will be considered …
Estimates of the Ultimate Family Status of Children Born Out-of-Wedlock in Massachusetts, 1961-1968
A study of birth certificates of illegitimate children was conducted to estimate the ultimate family status of children born out-of-wedlock in Massachusetts. An indication on the birth certificate that a legal correction had taken place was interpreted as a manifestation that the child had been legitimated or adopted. Linkage of the birth certificate of an out-of-wedlock child with a post-natal marriage certificate of his mother was interpreted a…
