- W2265558722 abstract "This paper presents a detailed analysis of fertility in 10 sub-Sahara African countries for which World Fertility Survey data are available. These data and similar data from other developing countries allow the exploration of fertility levels determinants and differentials and comparisons of these with similar measures in other regions. The analysis indicates that fertility is higher in sub-Saharan Africa than in other regions of the world and that in 7 of the 10 countries it has been rising to some extent over the last 20 years whereas in other parts of the world it has been falling. The high current level of fertility results from a pattern of early and universal marriage and very little use of contraception. Fertility would be even higher if it were not for prolonged and near-universal breastfeeding. Low usage of contraception arises from relatively poorer contraceptive knowledge and higher family size preferences and high infant and child mortality than is generally true in other regions. Sub-Saharan Africa is both like other regions in that socioeconomic differentials in fertility and its proximate determinants do exist and unlike other regions in the size and pattern of those differentials. For example there seem to be 3 patterns of socioeconomic differentials in fertility. Sub-Saharan Africa has high base levels of fertility and relatively small differentials. Asia has low base levels and small differentials and Latin America has high base levels and large differentials. Therefore it is necessary to use care in generalizing from the fertility experience of other parts of the world in determining the probable trends of fertility in Sub-Saharan Africa." @default.
