  • Child Spacing As Measured from the Age of Children in the Household
    CHILD SPACING AS MEASURED FROM THE AGES OF CHILDREN IN THE HOUSEHOLD* Joseph Schachter1 and W ilson H. Grabill2 Introduction INCE the end of World War II, attempts have been made to assess the significance of the high postwar fertility rates in terms of the pattern of family growth and the ultimateS size of completed families. These efforts have been handicapped, however, by the absence of adequate information on the interval between marriage and childbearing, and be­ tween successive births. In recent years, a number of demographers have addressed themselves to the problem of obtaining statistics on this aspect of fertility experience, carrying out studies for selected areas and population groups. Two current studies—“ The Growth of American Families,” and “ The Study of American Family Life,” promise to add considerably to our knowledge in this area. The present paper concerns a proJect now nearing comple­ tion, which was undertaken cooperatively by the National Office of Vital Statistics and the Bureau of the Census, to de­ velop by-product statistics on child spacing from cross-sectional census data.3 This approach is experimental. However, if found effective, it provides a means of obtaining nationwide information on the subJect for white and nonwhite women of childbearing age by social and economic status, on a current and continuous basis. The following paragraphs describe the derivation of child­ spacing data from the 1950 Census of Population and Housing. * A paper read at the meeting of the Population Association of America on May 4, 1957. The opinions expressed here are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the official views of the agencies with which the authors are connected.
