Abstract
"Based on a simple procedure developed by Menken (1979), the estimate of fecundability of migrated couples in the process of rural out-migration [in India] has been obtained in this paper. It is found that the estimates of fecundabilities for females of different age-groups are significantly larger than the level of fecundability estimated for non-migrated couples. Some possible explanations for observing such a large gap [are] given." excerptKeywords: Asia; Comparative Studies; Demographic Factors; Developing Countries; Estimation Technics; Fecundability; Fecundity; Fertility; Fertility Measurements; India; Migrants; Migration; Nonmigrants; Population; Population Dynamics; Reproduction; Research Methodology; Rural-urban Migration; Southern Asia; Studies
