title: [Changes in the conceptual system of the censuses of population relating to family and household].
abstract: The author reviews Hungarian census methods concerning measurement of families and households, and the different definitions the government has used to define these terms since World War II.  "The changes in the concepts of the household and family make [it] necessary to analyse how the conceptual systems used in different periods can be adapted to the concepts of our days.  Moreover, the study makes an attempt to estimate, if possible, the number and structure of households and families for the years when such data collection (or processing) has not been carried out."
