nuptiality

His work covered three major areas of Indian demography: mortality, fertility and nuptiality.

Trends in mortality, nuptiality and fertility over this period will be examined in some detail.

His major work on nuptiality in India dealt with the impact of marriage squeeze on marriage age and rates.

In 1965, John Hajnal discovered it divides Europe into two areas characterized by a different levels of nuptiality.

Charles worked on fertility rates and nuptiality for the Dominion Bureau of Statistics in Canada.

In the foregoing, it has been shown that patterns of nuptiality and of reproduction influence levels and conditions of infant and early childhood and maternal mortality and morbidity.

A New Time Series Data Set for Africa: Mortality, Fertility, and Nuptiality for the Middle Zambezi Valley, Zambia.

Research has continued on nuptiality, specifically on the relative importance of changes in fertility in the past and of change in the age of marriage and in the proportions marrying.

The numbers of people who form (and dissolve) households affects the provision of housing, but availability and type of accommodation affects fertility, nuptiality and mortality, as well as household formation.

It also showed the close relationship between economic and demographic change in these centuries and, in particular, the central significance of nuptiality in influencing fertility levels, and through these in turn, population growth rates.

Socio-economic and environmental conditions and levels of medical technology and practice can either mediate or reinforce the influence of nuptiality and reproductive patterns upon fetal, infant, early childhood and maternal health and mortality.

However, it is less appreciated that in many cases the causality also appears to work in the opposite direction; that is, the nature of the British housing system tends to form and perpetuate major demographic differentials in terms of fertility, nuptiality and marital breakdown, and mortality.

In recent years, there has become available for developing countries robust new evidence which suggests that, by altering nuptiality and fertility patterns, individuals can reduce the mortality and improve the health of their young children and that childbearing women can enjoy better health from puberty to menopause.
