Trends in Premarital Childbearing: 1930 to 1994
Trends in Premarital Childbearing: 1930 to 1994
Report Number P23-197
Introduction
One of the most closely watched indicators of fertility over the past 30 years is the proportion of births occurring outside of marriage. Postponement of marriages among never-married women in pursuit of higher education and career development, along with increasing numbers of cohabiting relationships, have exposed women to greater risk of premaritally conceived births than in earlier years.
