Download or read book The Impact of Expected Child Survival on Husbands and Wives Desired Fertility in Malaysia written by Evelyn Lehrer and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a regime of high mortality, parents may have a greater number of births than their desired family size as an insurance against the possibility of losses in the future, at a time when fecundity loss or health hazards would make further births inadvisable or impossible. The log-linear probability model and data from the Malaysian Family Life Survey are used to explore this relationship quantitatively. The results suggest that perceived child survival probabilities affect husband's desired fertility significantly, in the expected direction, but have no impact on the wife's desire for further births. Important husband-wife differentials in the response of desired fertility to changes in other variables are also uncovered.

Download or read book The Second Malaysian Family Life Survey written by John Haaga and published by RAND Corporation. This book was released on 1993 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document discusses the purpose, design, fieldwork, and response rates for the Second Malaysian Family Life Survey (MFLS-2), carried out in Peninsular Malaysia in 1988-1989. MFLS-2 was, in part, a follow-up to the original Malaysian Family Life Survey, fielded in 1976-1977, reinterviewing original respondents and their adult children, plus interviewing a new group of women age 15-49 in 1988. Both surveys produced household-level retrospective and current data from women and their husbands, covering such topics as fertility, nuptiality, migration, mortality, employment, household composition, transfers, and income as well as social, economic, and community-level factors affecting family decisionmaking. MFLS-2 added a sample of older Malaysians to support research on their living standards, health, and intergenerational transfers. Besides MFLS-2 users, this document should interest those planning household surveys in Malaysia or elsewhere, especially those attempting to reinterview a panel of respondents to an earlier survey.

Download or read book Specifying and Diagnostically Testing Econometric Models written by Houston H. Stokes and published by Greenwood. This book was released on 1991 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses and illustrates with output from actual problems a number of applied econometric techniques. Among the specific techniques covered are OLS specification tests, recursive residual analysis, limited dependent variable models, error component models, time series models, and optimal control analysis. For each, the author outlines the basic mathematical models involved, discusses and estimates a sample problem using the B34S Data Analysis System he developed to facilitate the calculations, displays and evaluates the output of the program, and explores follow-up models. The examples selected are taken from a variety of sources and reflect actual applied research. All results are completely documented in the text so that the reader does not need access to the B34S program in order to use the book effectively.
