In this paper, we first show how the Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) can be integrated with other data sources to expand the types of variables available for analysis of population and health outcomes.

Taking an evolutionary biosocial approach, we use structural equation modelling to examine potential pathways between education and fertility including: infant/child mortality, women's participation in the labo...

BACKGROUND Estimates of the period mean age at first birth are readily available for countries with accurate vital statistics (i.e., in much of the developed world).

The Demographic and Health Surveys (DHS) program provides a l...
