The ‘high infant mortality’ trap’: The relationship between birth intervals and infant mortality – the example of two localities in Bohemia between the 17th and 19th centuries
The article further develops the term ‘high infant mortality trap’ as an expression of the concept supposing a mutual relationship between short average birth intervals (corresponding usually to high fertility) and high level of infant mortality. This mutual relationship is among other a consequence of the effect of the same or similar factors standing behind both processes (fertility, infant mortality). In the paper, this relationship is evaluat…
Determinants of the Length of Birth Intervals in the Past and Possibilities for Their Study: A Case Study of Jablonec nad Nisou (Czech Lands) from Seventeenth to Nineteenth Century
Knowledge of the length of birth intervals in the past and factors influencing them could help us to reveal many aspects of reproductive behavior at that time. The aim of this article is to describe the reproductive behavior in families from Jablonec (Czech lands) before the onset of the fertility transition using survival analysis and Cox regression based on individual observations acquired from family reconstitution. A usability description of …
První světová válka a obyvatelstvo českých zemí
Approximately 100 thousand men of Czech origin died during the wartime operations \nin the years 1914 to 1918. The majority were aged between 23 and 35. The reproductive losses have \nbeen estimated at another 610 thousand (550 thousand children that were never born due to the \nabsence of a man in the household and another 60 thousand civilian dead). In 1914 the population \nin the Czech territories numbered 10 million 283 thousand, in 1919 this…
Health and physical activity in Central and Eastern Europe
In a cross-cultural study, sport activity, sport motivation, health status, healthrelated behaviour and body concepts of German (West), Czech and Russian adults are compared. The samples, including about 400 persons in each country, were analysed by using a questionnaire. Results clearly show that three different somatic cultures can be distinguished. According to the theory of Inglehart, from Russia to Germany there is an increase in internal or…
The impact of physical activity on health and personal satisfaction
The article provides information on the sources of knowledge about health in the Czech adult population. At the same time, it ascertains differences in health states and in interest in health among sporting and non-sporting individuals. For that comparison, a questionnaire was employed including mostly closed questions with possibilities to present answers on the five-point Lickert type scale. The sample was composed of 200 men and 200 women in t…
Changes of Nuptiality in Czech Lands and Slovakia, 1918-1988
During the period between the World Wars differences in the age at first marriage and proportions married in the Czech and Slovak areas of the Czechoslovak Republic showed the two to be distinct regions. In the post-World War II period, however, differences in both measures have diminished and have almost disappeared, suggesting homogenization of demographic behavior. Current ages at first marriage have fallen to the levels-interwar demographers …
Fertility Decline in Czechoslovakia During the Last Two Centuries
The decline of fertility in Czechoslovakia on the territory of the Czech Socialist Republic began with a rise in the age at marriage; the decline of marital fertility began only after 1860. On the territory of the Slovak Socialist Republic marital fertility began to decline after 1900 without previous significant changes in the age at marriage. The differences between the demographic behaviour in the two parts of Czechoslovakia have persisted, al…
