- W2038249889 abstract "During 1957-58 the Social Research Unit of the University of the Witwatersrand undertook a study of facts norms and attitudes among the various socio-economic groups of the white population in Johannesburg. This paper presents the results of that part of the inquiry concerned with the incidence of sterility and fecundity among white married women. Although sterility and impairments to fecundity are not the most important factors in the birth rate of industrialized countries a full picture of fertility requires detailed information on the reproductive capacity of the population. Fecundity is taken to mean the physiological capacity to reproduce whereas fertility refers to the number of children actually born. The relative or absolute inability to reproduce constitutes sterility in this context. Sub-fecundity will denote the presence of a physical impairment which reduces the reproductive capacity in varying degrees. In addition to analyzing the incidence of fecundity in a representative sample of the population its incidence is also correlated with certain demographic and social variables. Metropolitan Johannesburg the largest city in South Africa and second largest in Africa in 1960 had a total population of 1097 000. The white population of the municipal area with which the study was concerned comprised 360000 people. Of these about two-thirds are English-speaking while between a quarter and one-third have Afrikaans and approximately 5 per cent a foreign language as their home language. Johannesburg is an industrial commercial and mining city with a diversified occupational structure although unskilled work being largely performed by non-whites this category is somewhat underrepresented in the population. The Afrikaans population is predominantly Protestants whereas English-speaking persons belong mainly to the Protestant Jewish and Catholic faiths. The latter two religious minorities comprise about 20 and 10 per cent respectively of the citys white population. Johannesburg has a rather cosmopolitan population--about one-fifth of its residents are foreign-born-- which is atypical of the country as a whole. (excerpt)" @default.
