title: [Decreasing effect of partner's education on number of children].
abstract: "A decade ago, Willis' micro-economic model of fertility was tested by making use of data obtained from the 1982 Netherlands Fertility Survey of Statistics Netherlands.... The effect of the woman's education on the expected ultimate number of children was negative, but became positive again with the partner's increasing level of education. A similar test on the basis of 1993 Fertility and Family Survey data indicates that the effect of the partner's education and the combined effect of the levels of education have disappeared. As regards education, only the woman's level has effect on childbearing." (SUMMARY IN ENG)
