Death registration in Nepal is incomplete, which limits its utility as a routine source of mortality data to inform policy development. This study uses data from the Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) Survey 2015/16 in Nepal conducted among households and CRVS service providers (local registrars) to assess the likelihood of death registration, using logistic regression with covariates of

Health selection, family division of labour and labour market participation of migrant and Australian born couples Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2024-04-23 Tinh Doan, Cathy Banwell, Liana Leach, Lyndall Strazdins
Australia is a multi-cultural society, with the majority of recent migrants arriving from non-English speaking Asian countries. Yet we know little about how ethnic diversity in the population is reflected in employment participation and within-family time exchange. This paper investigates how nonmarket time and labour market time vary across migrant groups from non-English speaking country backgrounds

Hidden numbers, hidden people: Family violence among South Asian Australians Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2024-04-12 Heshani Samantha De Silva, Stephane M. Shepherd, Troy E. McEwan
International research suggests that migrants face additional challenges that may heighten their risk of experiencing family violence (FV). South Asians are one of Australia’s fastest growing immigrant populations—yet relatively little is known about their experiences of FV. This study sought to address this research gap by ascertaining what could be gleaned about FV experiences of Australian South

The role of male partners in modern contraceptive use by women in South Africa: Does space also matter? Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2023-03-07 Kabeya Clement Mulamba
This paper examined the role of male partners in modern contraceptive use by women across clusters in South Africa. Its main objective was threefold. First, the present paper sought to test whether South African married women’s modern contraceptive use is related to the influence of their husbands or male partners. Second, it examined whether modern contraceptive use is similar within clusters. Third

The importance of child characteristics: children’s health and mothers’ subsequent childbearing Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-08-29 Lisbeth Loft
Existing literature rarely includes child characteristics as a predictor variable when investigating family life events. Using data from the Danish Longitudinal Survey of Children, this study follows a representative sample of the Danish 1995 birth cohort and their families (N = 4990) in order to examine the role of children’s disability and long-term illness in families’ subsequent childbearing.

Intimate partner violence and the spatial pattern of maternal healthcare services utilization among parous married women in northern Nigeria Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-08-12 Yemi Adewoyin, Clifford O. Odimegwu, Olatunji Alabi, Joshua O. Akinyemi, Olusola A. Omisakin
The low uptake of maternal healthcare services (MHS) in Nigeria is implicated in the country’s poor maternal health outcomes. In northern Nigeria where these outcomes are poorest, not much is known about the contribution of violence within unions on married women’s uptake of MHS. Using data on antenatal care (ANC) utilisation and place of delivery, and their sociodemographic confounders from the Nigerian

Contemporary family sponsorship and older parent reunification immigration under New Zealand’s neoliberal immigration regime Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-02-10 Liangni Sally Liu, Guanyu Jason Ran
A neoliberal immigration regime often takes an “economic” lens to frame and reframe immigration regulation based on a rational cost–benefit analysis of what immigration might bring to immigration-receiving countries. Under such a regime, skilled and business immigration is framed as an “economic” immigration category, which can channel in financial and human capital, while family and international

Loss of life expectancy due to respiratory infectious diseases: findings from the global burden of disease study in 195 countries and territories 1990–2017 Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-02-07 Guogui Huang, Fei Guo
Understanding of the patterns of and changes in mortality from respiratory infectious diseases (RID) and its contribution to loss of life expectancy (LE) is inadequate in the existing literature. With rapid sociodemographic changes globally, and the current COVID-19 pandemic, it is timely to revisit the disease burden of RID. Using the approaches of life table and cause-eliminated life table based

The ties that bind? Marriage formation, consanguinity and war in Lebanon and Palestine Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-02-03 Yara Jarallah
The paper explores the link between the civil war (1975–1990) in Lebanon and the first Intifada (1987–1993) in Palestine, and women’s transition to marriage and consanguinity. It marries the literature on demographic behaviour and social ties, and contributes to nascent literature on demographic behaviour in times of war extended to consanguinity. It uses a mixed methods approach using two nationally

The interacting effects of religion and birthplace on the labour market outcomes of Asian immigrants in Australia Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2022-01-27 Sheruni De Alwis, Nick Parr, Fei Guo
Immigration from a diverse range of source countries has been instrumental in increasing the diversity of religions among Australia’s population. Immigrants’ religious adherences may affect their labour market outcomes and integration into the host society more broadly by influencing their accumulation of human capital, work and family-related attitudes and values, social networks, and experiences

This study revisits the regional and socio-economic pattern of masculinisation of Child Sex Ratios (CSR), Sex Ratio at Birth (SRB) and Sex Ratio at Last Birth (SRLB) by using successive rounds of the National Family Health Survey (NFHS). Although the masculinisation of CSR continues in many Indian states as well as in different socio-economic settings, a tremendous change in previously established

This study investigated the demographic heterogeneity of COVID-19 infection to reveal the role of age structure and gender on COVID-19 diffusion patterns, demonstrating that the infection is distributed unevenly across ages, genders, and outbreak times. Based on cluster analysis, we analysed the 4-month COVID-19 outbreak data (N = 3017) in Thailand from January 12 to May 12, 2020, covering the early

Policy reforms and changing intergenerational support of elderly in India Journal of Population Research (IF 1.6) Pub Date : 2021-10-29 Ladusingh, Laishram, Thangjam, Melody
Post 2005 in India, a number of public policy initiatives were introduced to strengthen existing programs for welfare of the ever-increasing population aged 60 years and older. Using a National Transfer Accounts framework, this paper attempts to assess the implications of policy changes by evaluating changes in lifecycle deficit and changes in public and familial support of the elderly especially in
