spelling oai:open.uct.ac.za:11427/5892 Analysis of the projected parity progression ratio method using two successive censuses Mutakwa, Darlington Moultrie, Tom Demography Includes abstract. Includes bibliographical references. The objective of this study is to assess how well the projected parity progression ratio method works when applied to two successive censuses or Demographic Health Surveys. Four countries, namely Malawi, Zimbabwe, Cambodia and Panama, each with two recent censuses which are ten years apart, are used. Each of the census and survey used is taken through a data quality assessment process to check for inconsistencies. Using age-order specific fertility rates derived from births in the past year, parity progression ratios are projected to the next census. 2014-07-31T12:39:38Z 2014-07-31T12:39:38Z 2013 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5892 eng application/pdf Centre for Actuarial Research (CARE) Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
