许多生育理论预测大众教育会降低生育率，但这种影响可能以多种方式产生。本文使用来自尼泊尔农村社区的微观人口统计数据来检验这些联系，在该社区，大众教育和生育限制的传播刚刚开始。分析对比了父母和孩子的教育经历对父母生育偏好和行为的影响。结果表明，儿童的学校教育对生育偏好和行为都有很大影响。家长教育的效果较弱，而且在不同模型中也不一致。这些发现为将大众教育与儿童受教育经历导致的生育限制联系起来的理论提供了支持。
Many theories of fertility predict that mass education reduces fertility, but this effect may be produced in a variety of ways. In this paper, microdemographic data from a rural community in Nepal, in which the spread of mass education and fertility limitation is just beginning, are used to examine these links. The analyses contrast the influence of parents' and children's educational experiences on parents' fertility preferences and behaviour. The results indicate that children's schooling has a strong influence on both fertility preferences and behaviour. The effects of parental schooling are weaker, and also inconsistent in different models. These findings provide support for theories that link mass education to the onset of fertility limitation through children's schooling experience.
