Soon, later, or ever? The impact of anomie and social capital on fertility intentions in Bulgaria (2002) and Hungary (2001)

Philipov, D., Spéder, Z., & Billari, F. (2006). Population Studies, 60(3), 289-308 10.1080/00324720600896080

We use survey data from Bulgaria and Hungary to investigate the determinants of whether women intend to have a first or a second child and, if so, whether they intend to have the child within the ensuing 2 years or later. These determinants differ significantly by the order and timing of the intended birth. The variables used include measures of …

Societal Transition, Policy Changes and Family Formation: Evidence from Hungary

Aassve, A., Billari, F., & Spéder, Z. (2006). European Journal of Population / Revue européenne de Démographie, 22(2), 127-152 10.1007/s10680-005-7434-2

The paper uses the Hungarian Generations and Gender Survey ‘Turning Points in the Life-course’ (HGGS) to describe recent changes in union formation, onset of childbearing, leaving home and cohabitation. By estimating survivor functions and semi-parametric hazard regression models with time-varying covariates for the timing of first union and first birth, we find a long delay among the youngest cohorts, but …

Rudiments of recent fertility decline in Hungary: Postponement, educational differences, and outcomes of changing partnership forms

Spéder, Z. (2006). Demographic Research, 15, 253-288 10.4054/DemRes.2006.15.8

Our study describes fundamental changes in childbearing behavior in Hungary. It documents current postponement of entry into motherhood (first birth) and uncovers signs of delay in second birth. We place the behavioral modifications into historical time and reveal the basic role of the political, economic, and societal transformation of Hungary that started in 1989-1990 in these modifications. We document postponement …

Na, E. & Duckitt, J. (2003). Social Indicators Research, 62-63(1-3), 411-435 10.1023/A:1022665705561

A sample of 366 Koreans (200 younger and 166 older people) was surveyed in May 2001 to investigate consensus and diversity between generations and genders in basic values. Because prior research had indicated that rating abstract value items could produce misleading findings, concrete belief and behavioral practice items were used from which four value dimensions were extracted using principal components …

Housework, Childcare, and Fertility Intentions: The Role of Fathers’ Involvement in Belarus

Ishchanova, K.. 10.17645/si.10865

The impact of fathers’ involvement in household tasks on fertility intentions is being both increasingly acknowledged and contested. This article adds to the evidence base by analysing the relationship between fathers’ involvement in childcare and housework and the short‐term fertility intentions of mothers and fathers in Belarus. Due to its fertility dynamics, marked by early first childbearing, low‐to‐no second childbearing, …
