近几十年来，瑞典的生育率随着商业周期的变化而变化。在社会政策的支持下，妇女和男子都倾向于推迟组建家庭，直到他们获得一份有体面收入的稳定工作。在这项研究中，我们增加了以前的研究，调查如何稳定的就业问题在第一次生育的决定，妇女和男子，瑞典和外国出生的人在瑞典。我们使用劳动力调查的就业数据和人口统计行为的登记数据相结合，以解开劳动力市场地位，性别和移民地位在第一次生育行为的各个方面。我们的研究表明，外国出生的人似乎适应本地瑞典人的行为，女性和男性的模式在很大程度上是相似的。瑞典和外国出生的妇女和男子谁不是在劳动力减少倾向成为父母。在大多数情况下，我们还发现，与长期就业者相比，临时就业者组建家庭的倾向有所降低。
During recent decades fertility in Sweden has evolved in tandem with the business cycle. Supported by social policies, both women and men tend to postpone starting a family until they have acquired a secure job with decent earnings. In this study we add to previous research by investigating how the stability of employment matters in first-birth decisions for women and men and for Swedish- and foreign-born people in Sweden. We use a combination of Labor Force Survey data on employment and register data on demographic behavior to disentangle the various dimensions of labor market status, gender and migration status in first birth behavior. Our study demonstrates that foreign born persons seem to adapt to the behavior of native Swedes and that patterns for women and men are largely similar. Swedish- and foreign-born women and men who are not in the labor force have reduced propensities to become a parent. In most cases, we also find reduced propensities of starting a family for those with temporary employment as compared to those permanently employed.
