Attitudes toward Family Size Preferences in Urban Ethiopia
Making use of data obtained from fieldwork conducted in five major urban centers of Ethiopia in the summer of 2004, this study examines the attitudes of respondents on family size preferences to understand the fertility transition in urban areas. The methodology includes in-depth qualitative interviews and focus group discussions. The findings suggest that children continue to have an immeasurable value for urban residents.

My reason for asking them to do so arises from the fact that the Castonguay and Beaujot articles are almost iden…

Socio-cultural variations in the applicability of the economic model of fertility
In the economic model of fertility childbearing is regarded as a type of utility maximization in which preferences for children are balanced against available resources and incurred costs. This model is here tested on data from a fertility survey taken in the city of Edmonton, Alberta. It is applied separately to eight ethnic groups in order to test for variations in its applicability. It is found to receive some support in three groups, but to b…
