Investigations into changes in household formations across lower‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) rarely consider skip‐generation households. Yet, demographic, social, and economic forces increasingly encourage skip‐generation household formations. We examine trends and changes in the prevalence of skip‐generation households from 1990 to 2016, examining households, adults aged 60+, and children under 15, across 49 countries using household roster data from Demographic and Health Surveys. Analysis takes place in stages, first describing trends in skip‐generation households across countries and next providing explanatory analyses using multilevel modeling to assess whether, and the degree to which, country‐level characteristics like AIDS mortality and female labor force participation explain trends in the probability that a household is, or that an individual resides in, a skip‐generation household. Results indicate extensive increases in skip‐generation households in many LMICs, although there is also variation. The increases and variations are not well‐explained by the country‐level characteristics in our models, suggesting other underlying reasons for the rise and prominence of skip‐generation households across LMICs.

中低收入国家隔代家庭的崛起和地位



对低收入和中等收入国家(LMIC)家庭结构变化的调查很少考虑跨代家庭。然而,人口、社会和经济力量越来越鼓励跨代家庭的形成。我们利用人口统计和健康调查的家庭花名册数据,研究了 1990 年至 2016 年跨代家庭流行率的趋势变化,对 49 个国家的家庭、60 岁以上成年人和 15 岁以下儿童进行了调查。分析分阶段进行,首先描述各国跨代家庭的趋势,然后使用多层次模型提供解释性分析,以评估艾滋病死亡率和女性劳动力参与率等国家层面的特征是否以及在何种程度上解释了跨代家庭的趋势。一个家庭是跨代家庭或个人居住在跨代家庭的概率。结果表明,许多中低收入国家的隔代家庭大幅增加,但也存在差异。我们的模型中的国家层面特征无法很好地解释这种增加和变化,这表明了中低收入国家跨代家庭增加和突出的其他根本原因。
