[Netherlands Fertility Survey, September 1977]

"By means of a sample survey information has been gathered on the number of live-born children, the number of additionally expected children and the exposure status of married women born in the period 1928-1961, with the Dutch nationality and living in the Netherlands. Approximately 7,000 women have been asked to participate. About those women who did/could not participate a few demographic data were gathered from the municipal population registers. This article gives some important results of the survey but does not analyse those results profoundly."
