Cohabitation Expectations Among Young Adults in the United States: Do They Match Behavior
Does Nonmarital Childbearing and Mother's Later Marriage Influence Child Health in Adolescence
Mothers' Union Histories and the Mental and Physical Health of Adolescents Born to Unmarried Mothers
As nonmarital childbearing becomes a dominant pathway to family formation, understanding its long-term consequences for children's well-being is increasingly important.

We also consider the role of mothers' subs…
Nonmarital Childbearing, Union History, and Women's Health at Midlife
Despite high rates of nonmarital childbearing in the United States, little is known about the health of women who have nonmarital births. We use data from the NLSY79 to examine differences in age 40 self-assessed health between women who had a premarital birth and those whose first birth occurred within marriage. We then differentiate women with a premarital first birth according to their subsequent union histories and estimate the effect of marr…

Adolescent fertility rates (defined as the annual number of live births to girls aged 15–19 per 1,000 girls aged 15–19) vary considerably by world region. The worldwide average for the period 2000–5 is estimated at approx…
