Abstract

In order to examine factors influencing the perception of ideal family size in Poland, "the present paper discusses path models, which explain a central reproductive behaviour category i.e. the actual number of children....[The author finds that] the image of the ideal family size directly influences the existing number of children. Path coefficients show that the increase of the ideal number of children by one standard deviation is associated with the increase of actual family size by approximately one third standard deviation of this explanatory variable." Other variables considered include parental influence, rural or urban residence, educational status, age at marriage, religion, and quality of life. (SUMMARY IN ENG), (excerpt)

Abstract

"The paper analyses the interdependence between population dynamics and employment in Poland against the background of changes in the structure of employment as well as the total population growth in 1975-1985. Use was made of the ORLINE taxonomic method, J. W. Webb's structural diagram and the method of standardized residuals from linear regression." The results show considerable differences among regions, although, as a general rule, natural increase rather than migration was the most significant demographic factor. (SUMMARY IN ENG), (excerpt)
