Abstract:
"In the Netherlands increasing numbers of young people who leave their parents' home choose to live alone. This behavioural change dates back to the 60s....[and] is based on general social changes which are not restricted to the Netherlands.... Based on the Netherlands Fertility Survey '88...[a model is developed that] indicates that emancipation-indicators strongly affect the choice of young women to live alone. These are: participation in education, educational attainment and participation in the labour market. The number of young women living alone in the year 2000 has been calculated on the basis of forecasts of the education- and labour-market participation...." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
