title: [From minimal household units to household projections: an application to Canadian data].
abstract: "The headship rate method for household projections has been criticised for its silence concerning household composition, while alternative models have yet to resolve how to estimate households from the distribution of individuals by household status projected by their models. By combining an indicator of household composition with an indicator of headship, the method proposed here attempts to remedy these problems. The application to Canadian households could be viewed as an adaptation of the headship rate method, but would ideally serve as the second step of a model more representative of the household formation process."
