[Some aspects of the first and second birth interval]
Abstract:
"This article presents an analysis of the influence of demographic, socio-cultural and socioeconomic variables on the birth spacing pattern of women [in the Netherlands] with the aid of data from the Netherlands Fertility Survey 1982 and the follow-up study in 1985 (NFS'82/'85). Only the first and second intervals of women married for the first time and born between 1945-1964 are taken into account." The results indicate that 18 percent of the variance in the length of the first birth interval is due to such factors, suggesting that the influence of personal factors on fertility behavior is substantial. However, such variables account for only 8 percent of variance in the length of second birth intervals. (SUMMARY IN ENG)
