title: Analysis of completed parity using microsimulation modeling.
abstract: "This paper aims to construct a demographic microsimulation model, which is easily applicable to gene transmission..., and to examine the distribution of completed parity as a fertility measure at a population level according to the schedule of individual life course....The simulation model was applied to the data of the Gidra-speaking people living in the lowlands of Papua New Guinea."
