Many studies of fertility have reported a wide range of factors to be important determinants. These determinants include proximate factors and male and female background variables. However, most of the research has been based on an analysis of cross-sectional fertility elasticities. Therefore, there are limited attempts to examine the temporal behaviour of especially marital fertility in association...
This study assesses the capabilities of the 4-parameters own children method (4-pOCM) approach in the estimation of fertility rates of small areas using Schoumaker’s (2013) Poisson regression-based person-period approach (PPA). The paper was designed to appraise the Excel toolkit designed by Garenne and McCaa (2017) to implement the 4-pOCM in relation to Schoumaker’s (2013) Stata software command...
The emergence of fertility stalling in Zimbabwe post 2005 highlights the need for continued search for determinants of fertility change. Despite research showing the efficacy of two-sex modelling in understanding men’s influence in reproductive behaviour, there is a lack of studies on Zimbabwe’s fertility changes employing two-sex modelling. This study addresses this gap by applying the Oaxaca–Blinder...
