  • Title: The effect of marriage on fertility intentions: an approximation with cross-sectional data.
    Author: Reed FW, Mcbroom WH.
    Journal: Int J Sociol Fam; 1986; 16(1):111-23. PubMed ID: 12268860.
    Abstract:
    "Cross-sectional data are used to create a quasi-longitudinal design to explore the effect of marriage upon fertility intentions. It is found that as a result of marriage, men are likely to become more inclined towards fertility while women become less so. These results are in part due to differential values regarding marriage and the family." The data are for 800 individuals who were students at a university in the western United States in 1974.
