In a recent paper, Manning et al. (Popul Res Policy Rev 23:135–139, 2004) examine the stability of marital and cohabiting
unions from the perspective of children and find that children born to cohabiting parents are more likely to experience a
parental separation than children born to married parents. They find, further, that subsequent marriage among cohabiting parents
is associated with increases in the stability of these families, particularly among whites. We rely on the same data, the
1995 National Survey of Family Growth, to extend their findings. Our empirical results complement Manning et al.’s by modeling
four distinct trajectories of cohabitation and marriage around the time of the first birth and by comparing the dissolution
risks associated with each. We focus particular attention on the stability of cohabiting couples who marry before a first
birth and those who marry after a first birth. For these couples, we find that the ordering of cohabitation, marriage, and
childbirth is not associated with union stability, and we interpret this to suggest that many cohabiting couples jointly plan
marriage and childbirth.

Family structure as a risk for child maltreatment has long been viewed as a static state in the child maltreatment literature. Drawing on data from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study, the author uses a series of individual fixed-effects models to investigate whether particular types of relationship transitions over children’s first decade of life are associated with increased risk for maternal and paternal child abuse and maternal neglect. Findings question and confirm a number of long-standing theoretical and empirical findings from the child maltreatment literature. Results indicate that transitions to being single are associated with increased risk for maternal child abuse and neglect. In addition, the frequency and severity of paternal harsh parenting may be closely linked with the nature of fathers’ relationship transitions. Last, results largely do not provide support for the theory that the presence of social (nonbiological) fathers increases mothers’ risk for engaging in child abuse or neglect. 相似文献

Abstract Following the territorial division pointed out by Urlanis into those parts of the Soviet Union where birth control is practised and where it is not as widespread, it is possible to ascertain the importance of different factors bearing on fertility within each region. This study was based on data obtained from the 1959 USSR Census of Population including information on social and demographic characteristics of the urban and rural populations for over 150 political-administrative areas. In Central Asia, Azerbaidjan and Armenia, outside the region of birth control, the level of fertility depends mainly on the proportion of women who are married and also on their social position measured by the discrepancy in the educational status of men and women. In contrast, the birth control region of a relatively low level of fertility in urban areas, for example, displays the characteristic of women's educational achievement most strongly associated with the child-woman ratio. Except for the rural areas in this region, the present study fails to support the popular hypothesis that economic dependency of women is directly related to fertility. 相似文献

An Index of Child Well-being in the European Union 总被引:11,自引:1,他引:11
While the living conditions of children and young people in the European Union have gained increasing recognition across the
EU, the well-being of children is not monitored on the European level. Based on a rights-based, multi-dimensional understanding
of child well-being we analyse data already available for the EU 25, using series data as well as comparative surveys of children
and young people. We compare the performance of EU Member States on eight clusters with 23 domains and 51 indicators and give
a picture of children’s overall well-being in the European Union. The clusters are children’s material situation, housing,
health, subjective well-being, education, children’s relationships, civic participation and risk and safety. 相似文献

Little systematic quantitative research is available on the parents of adults who become ill and die of AIDS despite their large number and the wide range of adverse consequences. This study, based on survey data from Cambodia, explores economic and social effects on parents in a country characterized by extreme poverty and a substantial AIDS epidemic. Results indicate that parents play a major role during the illness of an adult son or daughter, often sharing living quarters, providing care, and paying for illness‐related expenses. These contributions to the societal response to AIDS come at considerable cost to parents at advanced ages. Multivariate analysis suggests lasting negative consequences for parents’economic well‐being, and the consequences are more substantial if the adult child's death was from AIDS rather than from other causes. The study found little evidence of stigma associated with losing a grown child to AIDS: reactions from local community members are more likely to be sympathetic and supportive than negative. These results underscore the need for organizations dealing with AIDS to recognize the contributions older persons make in coping with the epidemic and to address the burden it imposes on them. 相似文献

In Chile, as in other Latin American countries, most children born outside of marriage are born to currently cohabiting couples. After having their first child, parents could marry, separate, or experience no change in union status. This paper explores changes in cohabitation that occur after the birth of the first child in Chile and analyzes how these changes might be associated with the birth of children and socioeconomic status. The data come from the New Chilean Family Survey, a small longitudinal survey administered to women after giving birth (n = 564). I use life tables and event history techniques to assess changes in respondent union status up to 4 years after the birth of the first child, and to study the transitions out of cohabitation. The results indicate that the unions in the sample are relatively stable, because less than 40 percent of cohabiters change status over the period of 4 years. However, marriage still appears to be a more stable type of union than cohabitation. Among cohabiters, there is evidence of a nonlinear relation between union stability and educational attainment, because the most stable unions are the unions of women with a high school diploma and not the unions of women who did not complete their secondary education. Having planned the first birth and the birth of an additional child seems to consolidate the cohabiting union, because these variables are not related to the entry into marriage, but they are related to lower risks of dissolution. These findings suggest that the Chilean case differs from the cases of Europe and the United States. 相似文献

Despite the frequency of divorce and remarriage across much of sub-Saharan Africa, little is known about what these events mean for the living arrangements of children. We use longitudinal data from rural Malawi to examine the effects of family transitions on the prevalence and incidence of child fostering, or children residing apart from their living parents. We find that between 7 % and 15 % of children aged 3–14 are out-fostered over the two-year intersurvey period. Although divorce appears to be a significant driver of child fostering in the cross-sectional analysis, it is not significantly associated with the incidence of out-fostering. In contrast, maternal remarriage has both a lagged and an immediate effect on the incidence of out-fostering. Furthermore, the likelihood of out-fostering is even higher among children whose mother remarried and had a new child during the intersurvey period. Using longitudinal data collected from living mothers rather than from children’s current foster homes offers new insights into the reasons children are sent to live with others besides their parents. 相似文献

This article investigates the time to first birth, treating coresidence with husband’s parents and labor supply as endogenous and using representative data on Taiwanese married women born during 1933–1968. We use a full-information maximum likelihood estimator for a duration model with endogenous binary variables. Results controlling for endogeneity suggest that both coresidence and working are associated with a delay in childbearing, reversing the effect of coresidence on the timing of first birth but not that of working. Women in earlier cohorts tend to choose coresidency and not working, and an increasing number of women from later cohorts choose to do both or to work only. 相似文献

以往的理论和文献没有就成年子女外出务工对农村老年人健康的影响达成共识.文章基于中国家庭追踪调查(CFPS) 2010年和2012年两期数据分析成年子女外出务工对农村老年人健康的影响,并从家庭支持角度入手探讨影响成年子女外出务工作用的重要机制.考虑到可能存在样本的内生性问题,文章采用倾向性匹配分析方法对回归模型的结果进行稳健性检验.结果发现,成年子女外出务工会对农村老年人健康产生不利的影响.长期两地分离而导致家庭照顾支持和情感支持减少是老年人健康状况变差的主要原因.另外,家庭经济支持对老年人健康的影响并不显著,这可能与农村的生活方式和消费观念有关.随着家庭规模变小和大量劳动力外流,农村老年人的养老和健康问题令人担忧. 相似文献

外部性内在化与城镇独生子女父母年老奖励补助政策 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
有关生育的奖励处罚政策实质上是使生育行为外部性内在化的一种努力。城镇独生子女父母年老奖励补助政策仅是地方性人口与计划生育条例的一项重要规定,尚未取得与农村部分计划生育家庭奖励扶助制度同等重要的地位。利用生育外部性和制度变迁理论,结合地方性条例的规定,分析现行政策难兑现的原因,提出自上而下制度创新的原则和具体建议。 相似文献

独生子女与父母供求关系的经济学考察 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
子女与父母间的需求和供给具有经济属性。在独生子女家庭,由于一对夫妻养育一个子女形成数量上的不对等,往往出现父母在养育子女期间对独生子女的过度供给,而造成独生子女的人格缺陷。在父母年老时独生子女对父母的供养则出现供不应求,而形成特定的家庭问题。本文提出了父母应将壮年时对子女相对过剩的供给能力转变为积蓄以保证养老需要等方面的对策。 相似文献

Six indirect techniques for estimating child mortality were applied to information on survival status of all children ever born, provided by a sample of 1,252 women delivered at the Maternity Unit of the American University of Beirut Hospital. The results were compared, using as a reference the estimate derived from partial birth histories (ages of surviving children, ages at death of children who have died). Their dispersion is minimal for the probability of dying between birth and fifth birthday, estimated at 48 per thousand. For each mother, the ratio of the observed number of children who have died, to that expected given the lengths of exposure of the children to the risk of mortality, was used as a dependent variable in a multiple regression analysis. Educational level of mothers had a significant effect, but not occupational status of father, religion or consanguinuity. 相似文献

生育一孩弱化二孩生育意愿吗?——基于北京市“单独”家庭的考察 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
本文使用北京市西城区2013年生育意愿调查数据,基于不同的生育意愿测度指标,采用描述分析和回归分析方法检验城市"单独"家庭中生育一孩对二孩生育意愿的作用,并借助倾向值分析方法控制生育状况的自选择问题,从而使得研究结论更具稳健性和可靠性。结果表明,城市"单独"家庭的二孩生育意愿并不低迷,生育一孩能够强化育龄妇女的二孩生育意愿,而且生育状况的作用在生育意愿的众多影响因素中较为突出。上述结果需要在生育意愿的评估和生育政策的制定中有所关注。 相似文献

In this paper results recently published in this journal concerning the influence of birthspacing on child survival are reviewed, and two reasons are suggested why the statistical associations observed in the data collected in the World Fertility Survey may be, at least in part, spurious. Where reporting is poor, it is argued that errors may often be responsible for a substantial portion of the association between interval length and mortality, and also for the apparent influence of the death of one child on the survival prospects of a younger sibling. Where the reported dates of birth and death are reliable but contraceptive prevalence is high, there is the problem that contraceptive practice is apt to be closely associated with other behaviour likely to have a direct effect on mortality. 相似文献
