  • Recollections

    Open AccessSusan CochraneARTICLEPacific Arts2024

    This paper traces collecting practices and field research in the Sepik region of Papua New Guinea during the 1960s and 1970s, when there was heightened interest in the cultural heritage of Papua New Guineans in Australia. It begins with William Dargie, chairman of the Commonwealth Arts Advisory Board, who went to the Sepik in 1968–69. It then investigates the collecting activities of several other Australians working in the Sepik region at that t…

    Cynthia B Lloyd, Awad M Hallouda et al.ARTICLEPopulation and Development Review1989

    The major objectives of this volume are 1) to identify the salient features of the diversity in patterns of demographic preference and behavior in Egypt and 2) to investigate the way in which social and economic modernization has shaped these patterns and affected the underlying process. The studies presented here draw on the data collected in the Egyptian Fertility Survey conducted in 1980 by the Central Agency for Public Mobilisation and Statis…

  • Fertility and Education. What Do We Really Know

    Open AccessSusan Hill Cochrane, Susan CochraneARTICLEPopulation1980Citada por: 52

    Current research on the relationship between education and fertility is reviewed, and a model relating intervening variables to fertility is developed. The evidence indicates that education may increase or decrease individual fertility. The decrease is greater for the education of women than of men and is greater in urban than in rural areas. However, education is more likely to increase fertility in countries with the lowest level of female lite…

  • The dual and the exchange‐constrained economy

    Susan Hill Cochrane, Susan CochraneARTICLEThe Journal of Development Studies1976

    Nelson's model of the exchange‐constrained economy is compared with Eckaus's model of the dual economy. The purpose of this comparison is to illustrate the similarity of the models in explaining unemployment of one factor as the result of the composition of demand and the scarcity of a second factor. Both authors agree to this point. However, Nelson emphasises that unemployment arises from price rigidity while Eckaus maintains that technological …

  • Husband-Wife Differences in the Demand for Children

    Susan H Cochrane, Susan Cochrane et al.ARTICLEJournal of Marriage and the Family1976Citada por: 3

    The presence or absence of differences between husbands and wives in patterns of relationship between certain economic variables and desired family size may indicate: a) whether or not conjugal roles condition the effects of economic factors on the demand for children; and b) the extent to which assumptions in economic models of fertility about the nature and existence of common family utility functions are empirically supported. In order to test…

  • Children as by-products, investment goods and consumer goods

    Susan H Cochrane, Susan CochraneARTICLEPopulation Studies1975

    This paper is a review of a number of applications of traditional micro-economics to the analysis of fertility. In this paper four general models of family size are developed and utilized for classifying previous work on the micro-economic analysis of fertility. The general models describe four family decision-making situations. The outcome of these decisions determines fertility either directly or indirectly. In the first model, parents are forc…

  • Factors affecting the choice of contraceptive method by a group of OEO patients

    Susan H Cochrane, Susan CochraneARTICLESocial Biology1975

    A method of discriminant analysis is described whereby a combination of personal characteristics is established which would best predict whether a woman would choose oral or IUD contraception. The study hypothesized that, at the time of choice, a higher level of motivation is necessary to accept an IUD rather than oral contraception. Approximately 450 patients at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Columbia, South Carolina, were studied between Octobe…

  • Mortality level, desired family size, and population increase

    Open AccessSusan Hill Cochrane, Susan CochraneARTICLEDemography1971Referências: 1

    In this paper an attempt is made to elaborate on the behavioral assumptions underlying a simulation model published in a previous volume of this journal (Heer and Smith, 1968). The present paper contains a discussion of the ways in which a fall in the death rate of children will affect the desirability of another birth if the family's objective is to have a son surviving to the father's sixty-fifth birthday. The death rate affects both the expect…
