intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI

In general the S data on age repoitingiiptility Frtility a i f mortality appear to rsoIly1ndfnt lie reli ible In particular the unioii statis data and fertility

intervals that e shorte[ioups have first birth r arp tna te

orlhml mi rstlut f nine Illlisthtlie tsat tha tie pmiorio inrsi o it e ofhs implies that aeitia r proportion increasing withage of womren had citier over-statedl their age hileat entering first uion or had Omitled

- the ue alogether sonc may hefir nion While births c oultsie union it is ulikely that casialconceived of any

relationfships would acout for such a high propor ion of first births and that this should increase by age groups of womnc the studmy by Roberts (1975) found that tilie freq nency of casual relationships was ullite low

More detailed information is presented ill table 15 giving the per cent distribution of five-year age groups of womenby age at enlry into the first union by length of the

first birth interval inclulding the mean length The meal length of this birth interval does stealily become shorter as

ge iiincreases liltIough the age group 410-44 is an except in Ilie mean length drops from 15-16 moitlhs al ages 15--19 ail 20--24 to 124 at age 35--39 rising slightly to 138 for age gr I 40-44 finally steeply declining 84oup and to months for tire 45-49 age group To give a general +erspec tive these averages may be coin pared to averages in oler (colntries such as Thailand aid Fiji of about 16 22 months and in GIyan of 20 -25 months The implication here is that the length of this first birlh interval may be n mid et S ill ala ica hut mnore for leestl for all age groimio1dei age groups amil worst of all for ti1e 45 49 age group wit on thsI its iie an of 84

The per cent distribution iii table 15 shows tIhat within 111age groutps womne i who entiered tlie irst 1i iion at Iiigher ages were more likely to have large nega ive intervals [lie

coincidence of these two factors strongly suggests that women who gave highcr ages at entry had cither overstaled

their age at entry o omitted their first unioil Sincc aI higher propiortion 61t older women entered lhei firstunion at high ages their average age at ntry would also contain a larger upwaI bias than that of younger age groups The

vidlence definitely points to some overstatement of age at first union either directly or indirectly by omitting the first unioa and supplying the date of a second perhaps more stable union as the first This was true at least for women above age 25 bul with overstatemeti i directly with age

Children Ever Born by Duation

If overstatement of the date of the first union or omission of the first union caused unusually short birth intervals it is likely thal the second aid further early births may also appear to occur t ( close to fihe date of the first union for Sithe same reasons- Co test this the average number of births ccturring 0-4 5-9 10-- 14 and 15- 19 years after the date of tle first tillon re presented for each five-year age gIrou in table 16 It is interesling to note tie very high number of children born il the first tive years for womei aged 30 and over combined with very small increases duhring tile next five-year period and actual decreases from the 5-9 to the 10--14 duration group For example it is highly unlikely that women currently aged 45 -49 and vlio first enlered a union 0-5 years ago would have had ail average of three children each ill that period of time when they would have been between the ages of 40 to 49 suggesting

that the duration is incorren-t If the dmiration is too short then the supplied date of Cntry is too high Al though theitulmibers of cases in some of these groups are small the existence of the patterii for all ages 30 and over suggests that it is not a spurious fimiding Moreover severe overstateshyment by a small number of women can significantly affect the mean age for example if20 women gave ages at entry Ihat were on average 10 years too high this would add one year to the mean oftl age group that had 200 women Some of these age groups have about 300 women and incorrect ages may have been given by more than 20 women in a given age group so the effect is by io meaiis trivial

Distribution by Type of Initial Unioi

Another way of testing the hypolhesis thai some age groups have oversiated their age alt first union is to see whether time prolportiois who began in visiting unions vary among age groups The jnstification Ir this test is that most women began in visiting unions l this reasonindlfor alone if early unioiis are omitted most of them will be visiting unions In addii given that both common lav and married unions Ias( toger aniiat least marriage carries a higher social stalus ran kiiig these types are less likely to be omitted as initial umions rlhle 17 shows that file proportioi of younger women who begili a visiting union is higher than1 tle euItivaleni ploortioi for older woliei A columPrison ofthe age goups cim be me ifwe assunic that all womeii vho have never entered a ummio will begi iil cit hlm a coi1ion law or married tin ion al a Iiylpotheticalmid con stroct distribiUliOll 01lo i tMliolis by iii ial tillIoll (ci)lu i is a5 amid 6 of tible 17)

the case however since even at ages 10-29 the increase based on vital statistics was 29 per cent -

The cumulative fertility rtes from tthe census and the survey also showed a fertility increase as mentioned in section 61 Fertility rises have also been observed in other Caribbean and Latin America populations during the samei period This fact and the agreement of the three sources census vital statistics and survey about this trend further

--7z-support-its existene-The-reasons for increasing fertility are shydistrssed later in this chapter

The differences in amount of fertility increase shown by S- the two sources indicate however that one or both sources

are incorrect It appears likely that part of the 36 per cent increase shown by the vital statistics rates is due to improvements in coverage of the system The vital statistics rates are clearly underestimated but the ratio of the total fertility rate (TFR) from vital statistics to that from the survey shows that the amount of underestimation has declined over time for 1950--54 1955-59 and 1960-64 these ratios are 074 084 and 089 respectively If under- registration was the same in 1950-54 as it was in 1960-4 the increase in fertility according to vital statistics would have been only 12 per cent Comparison of the number of children by single year of age in the 1960 census with vital statistics data on number of births in comparable years does not help since the census underestimates children relative to vital statistics as well as being affected by emigration

A further factor which will be discussed later in this chapter is that the survey data may thenselves over-estimate the amount of fertility increase if older women tended to displace the dates of births closer to the survey date This would have resulted in an artificial inflation of the level of fertility in the mid1960s and an artificial cnlargei t of the increase from the 1950s to the 1960s The later discussion shows that after taking all factors into account tile amount of real increase was probably about 10 percent

Froiml the early 1960s to 1974 the annual rates show an overall decline of about 20 children il the total fertility rate during this period The decline was fairly steady but fluctuated somewhat from year to year probably because

of a combination of reasons such as age heaping displaceshyment of births sampling fluctuations caused by the small denominators of some cells or real variations in social and economic conditions Five-year averages ire shown in table 24 to adjust for these fluctuations These averaged rates show a decline of 10 child for the same period although if the rapid decline within thelast five year period 1970-74 is accelted then the decline up to the mid-1970s-is-closerdegto 1-5 child but not-as mucsas-2 child which the annual rates show

The rise in secondary education and the existence of a strong family planning programme in Jamaica since the I960s makes the decline plausible The level of use of contracepshytives in the country was fairly high as seen both in the JFS 1975 survey and in an earlier 1972 survey for example the JFS showed that 66 per cent of women ever in union had used contraception at some time in their life anid 45 per cent of exposed women were currently using while even in 1972 52 per cent ofwomen ever in union had used at some time It is difficult to evaluate the JFS fertility rates because after 1963 there is no continuous record of ageshyspecific rates from an external source Crude birth rates (CBRs) from vital statistics have shown a decline of about 30 per cent from the 1960 rate of 42 to a rate of 29 in 1976 or to a rate of 28 according to the 1975-76 JFS Standardization of the 1970 birth rate assuming the 1960 age structure to be the standard raised the CBR slightly from 344 to 354 and a similar standardization of the C13R based on tile survey population raised this survey CBR from 280 to 300 These increases show that emigration has slightly reduced the proportion of women aged 15-49 in the population between 1960 and 1975 Nevertheless the bulk of the fertility decline is not due to age-structural change It is noteworthy that even in tile late 1960s Roberts (1968) suggested that despite the use of period fertility measures during 1943-60 the lack ot a rise in completed cohort fertility inplied that fertility decline might be imminent aid thlat the family planning programme was beginning to take effect

The recent decline in fertility found by the survey may be evaluated by comparing those age-specific rates which

the proportion of Unmated women and a small decline in

thle mcean age at entering the first uion as discussed i chapter 5 Finally the average length of breastfeeding has

probably declined over the past 20-30 years andl is now

months If te union status data obtained illtheseven JFS were accepted at face value marital age-specific

fertility rates based on exposure within reported unions

only could be calclad From these rates shown in table026-it n deed appears thatincreased participation -i

iuions was respohsible for a great part of the observed

fertility increase from the 1940s to the early 1960s Instead of about 100 per cent at age 15-19

11only

of fertility increases and about 40 per cent at age 20-24 (obtained when age-

specific rates are considered) within union rates yield

increases of only about 20 per cent at ages 15-19 and

20-24 The discussion in chapter 5 suggests however that

older women overstated their age at tilefirst union and to

the extent that this istrue the within union rates for older

cohorts at ages 15-24 should be lower and the real

fertility increase within unions would be higher than the

observed 20 per cent Secondly the recent decline in fertility which includes

declines among the older cohorts would further mimic the

expected patterns caused by displacement DisplacementS r cages would mean that older cohorts

would appear to have higher fertility at their older ages

compared to younger cohorts and fertility decline would

show the same pattern These two known real trends in afertility a rise in the period about 15-19 years ago and

recent de line could together produce mnucti the same pattern as displacement Itisdoubtful however that the whole of the observed

increase isreal The rise infertility at age 15--19 and

20-24 seen in the cohortperiod specific rates (96 per cent and 48 per cent respectively) is much larger than the overall increase illcurrent fertility (TFR) using survey data This suggests that some of the increase at young ages was

probably caused by either omission or displacement of

births by older women If displacement occurred this would imply that tile recent decline in fertility at older ages was overstated For example the fertility rateat age 35-39 for the 45--49 40-44 and 35-39 cohorts declined from 220 to 188 to 155 during the last 15 years (table 25) a total decline of 30 per cent If the rate for the 45-49 cohort is inflated by displaced births however the actual decline would be somewhat less than tile observed 30 per cent The situation at ages 30-34 is similar both the 40-44 and 45-49 cohorts may be partially inflated and the actual decline is probably less than the observed 28 per

cent for the past 15 years in the case of omissioi trends at

older ages would be unaffected One argument for suspecting displacement of births is

the change in tle shape of the fcrtility cirvc observed froie

younger cohorts to older COhOrts (See table 2) Fvn ht

a rise in fertility occurs itis unlikely that tle shape ol the

fertility curve would change The 45-49 and 40- 44

cohorts reached their peak fertility at central age 30 while

--0v1u 1ake Ia t con r a g1er colto d3 25 A peak age as high as 30 is highly unusual alld Coushy

samebined vith a different peak for other cohorts in tile the slope betweenpopulation is highly suspect Moreover

central ages 20 and 25 (ie the increase inthe fertility rate)

was much Steeper forthe two oldest cohorts about 50 per

cent compared to 28 per cent for the cohort aged 35-39 30-34 year old cohort The faster

rise between these ages results in a citching-up effect seen ever born in panel B

and 14 per cent for tile

in the cumulative number of children of t6ble 25 For example a striking case is seen where at

he 45-49 and 35-39 cohorls differed bycentral age 25 tmuch as 07 child but by central age 35 the differenceas

only 03 child File fact that a difference of 03 childwas still remained implies that some real fertility increase did

occur but it was clearly not as large as it appeared to be at the young ages The shape of fertility curves shownin

figure 4 for trte cohort-age rates notifor the cohort-period rates in table 25 shows the change in shape from older to

younger cohorts of woneni PIF ratios formed by relating actual achieved fertility

(P) to a synthetic cross-sectional estimate (F) are a good test for displacement or omission but only when fertility has remained more or less constant over time (Brass 1978

loldman and Clidambatan 1980) Where fertility is declining this ratio will be above 100 and if fertility rose it would be below 100 Thus although ina situation of conatant fertility deviations from 100 would indicate that omlion or overstatement was occurring iffertility itself is changimg misreporting vil be conceiled by real changes Table 27 presents tle results and shows that small increases in fertility occurred up to the period 10-14 years before the survey with decline after that especially in tilemost recent five-year period

64 DIFFERENTIALS IN FERTILITY

The pattern of fertility rates among subgroups of the population may also be used to test the quality of birth data This is especially trite if there is reason to expect subshy

the first birth may change over time according to age of birth would also account for some of the difference The theile Woman it is Unlikely thit the proportion eventually proportion who became mothers was 90 per cent For becoming mothers would change in a given populationhc 45-49 year olds 92 per cent for 40-44 year olds and 94 one exception to this generalization is found in cases such per cent for 35-39 year olds showing that a real increase as that of Jamaica where fecundity itself probably had of fecundity did occUr with thc percentage of childless changed over tlme womcn decreasing from 1i0 o 6 per cent This supports the

In the (liscussioll so far it has been shown that there results of analysing frtility differentials among sioshywere increases in fertility in the period beginning from economic subgroups that some real fertility increase about 20-24 years ago upi to about 10-14 years ago occurred but that displacemcnt or omission of early births

(ie--b eteen-95-1-55-and - 961--65)- n-addition fertility -shy also occurred amng olderage-groups -- 7---7-- --------shyhas declined recently beginning from 5--9 years ago for Panel C of table 33 shows age-specilic fertility rates for some age cohorts The PF ratios shown in table 27 reflect all births of order four or higher There appears to be some these trends increase in high-order births up to tle period 10-14 years

The ratios of less than 100 found at periods of more before the Survey for younger women Although this rise than 10 years before the survey imply some omission or could be partly due to improvements in fecundity in the displacement of births but they are at least partly due to broad sense (ie not only a decline in primary sterility but the real rise in fertility declines in morbidity and the resulting benefits for fertility)

Panel A of alle 33 shows that the percentage who were and increased exposure to concep)tion suchI a rise is also mothers by age 15-19 and 20-24 increased substantially consistent with displacement andor omission of births up to tile period 10-14 years before the survey but there Secondly the recent trend in these rates from 10- 14 yearsis much less change at older ages The cumulative pro- before the survey supports tlie substantial decline in portions who become mothers towards the end of child- fertility described earlierbearing did not change as drastically however This I ttern is consistent with displacement andor omission of first births On the other hand the declijne in the mean age at 66 TESTS FOR OMISSION OF LIVE BIRTHS entering the first union would explain some of this

diminishing Ufference and improvements in health which The tests carried out ulp to this point were mainly directed increased the likelhood of the first conception being a live- towards finding out whether displacement of births

8 Summary

Date reporting in both the houscllold and tile individual surveys were in general quite good Sonic errors wcre noted at the houselhold level the omission of infants heaping among adults at the digits 0 alW 5 the transference of som women aged 49 into age 50 and the possibility of dating error between age groups 30-34 and 35-39 In the individual survey the data are quite reasonable the only error being that betwcen the 30-34 and 35-39 age groups which persists from the household to the individual survey Rsespondnts repoited Ilij date of irth and the dates of childrens births and deaths with a high degree of completeness supplying both month and year Reporlingof the (late of the first union was not as complete however almost half of the total sample gave their age rather than the (late of this event and this proportion was higher for

older women A (direct reading uf thle I PS nuptiality data shows that

a substanlial decline of about 25 years occurred in tle average age at first union Detailed analysis suggests that older women overstated their ages at first union however and this would reduce the size of the real decline from oldtl to yuungei cohorts by about one year Evidence of over-slaiemnenl cannot account for the full observed decline however and by implication it appears that a real decline of about 15 years in the average age at first union occurred Two further important findings are that the surveyobtained more complete information on participation in

visiting unions than did the census and secondly that dating of unions after the first was also somewhat

inaccurate ill the JFS This survey is Iparticularly useful because it provides age

speciric fertility data from the period after 1964 whichthotigh usually available from vital statistics have not so far ieeii published for the period after 1963 Knowledge of fertility trends for the period from the early 1960s onwards is imli)rlant hecause a strong fami ily p iing prograina ic was instillted during this period (Sinclair i974b) Tl results of the JFS showing substantial decline in fertility beginning from the mid-1960s contradicts the conclusions drawn froi previously existing dlata (vital statistics of tlie early 1960s and 1970 census) that almost no change had occurred from 1960 to 1970 (Sinclair 19741) The

iimaterii y Iistories provideevidence of msubstantial decine in fertility during the 10 yenr lieod becf iethe sumvey TIi decline of about 15 ChIldren in the total fertility rate would have resilted f1om fertility change withinl Unionssince the age at -rst union actually declined Fertility decline was concent td aimong women aged 30 or more

The I1S showed a substantially higher level of fertilitythan the vtial statistics from the I950S uipi to tle eirly1960s the latest date for which agc specific i tilityy da t roml vital statistics are availible The impllcation here is

that some under-registration in vital statistics probablyexisted during this period Census measures of cumulativc fertility are also generally lower than JFS measures for census years again suggesting that the JFS achieved more completc coverage of children ever born

Therc is some evidence that displacement and to a lesser degrcc omission of births occurred among oldcr age groupsTile fertility schedules show that there was a rise in fertility among younger women starting about 30 years before ihe survy and continuing up to about 15 years before the survey while ferlilily declined during the past 10 years Although there is evidence supporting the occurrence of some increase in fertility from both external sources and from the JIS data itself it seems very likely that only part of the observed increase in fertility is real At least half is probably due to the combined effects of displacement towards the later part of thle reproductive period and of omission of birthsinfant deaths by older women during tile early part of their reproductive life To the extent that displacement occurred towards the middle and later part of older womens lives this would coincide with the 1960-75 periol and it would mean that their fertility rates dluring(his period are too high While the size of the recent decline may be almost the same even after allowing for the displacement which is spread throughout the 15 year peiiod the amount of under-registration in the 1960s would probably be less since tlie JFS would have slightlyover-estiniated the level of fertility during the early 1960s

It is interesting to note that tile higher educated groups and urban women experience somewhat larger fertility rises among older cohorts at their youinger ages and periaps of displacenient at older ages than the lower educated andrural groups The currently married woenc had a much smaller increase and thereflre less displacement however while the currentlycommon law group had an exceptionally large appa reli rise in ferti lity and presumably disp acement was also substantially greaiter for this group

Tests of ssion of births suggCst that some omissioii of infant dealhs may have occurred at periods earlier than 15 years before tle survey Also there is soie error in the f at death data il the period 5--9 years before the sn yThe 11S showed an overall trend of declining infant and child momtity during th past 30 years which is coiiifirmdd by the Irend described in the vital statistics Th e level of the in ft mortality rate observedl in the lS is consistently higher than the level registered in the vital statistics lhov ever This suggests that som underregisratioln of infant dtiIs xlisstedlsince the periid 30 years before the survey anmd C0itniming tipl to tile preseItI
