Estimation of fecundability of migrated couples in the process of rural out-migration in India.

"Based on a simple procedure developed by Menken (1979), the estimate of fecundability of migrated couples in the process of rural out-migration [in India] has been obtained in this paper. It is found that the estimates of fecundabilities for females of different age-groups are significantly larger than the level of fecundability estimated for non-migrated couples. Some possible explanations for observing such a large gap [are] given."

Some models for patterns of urbanization, migration and development.

"This paper aims to study the pattern of urbanization and the evolution of [the] relationship between rural-urban migration and the degree of economic development taking Gross National Product...into consideration. Intercensal age-specific rural net out-migration rates are also estimated from [tabulations] of the proportion of rural population of India by age through a recently developed procedure based on generalized stable population by Stupp (1989). A comparative study is also made between [the] survival column of India with a developed nation like Japan."

On some probability models and their applications to the distribution of the number of migrants from a household.

This paper discusses some probability models in relation to their application to the distribution of the number of migrants from a household. 2 types of distribution of migrants from a household are described here: 1) male migrants aged 15 and above and 2) total number of migrants including females and children from a household. It is found that the model proposed here fitted the several sets of observed data on the number of migrants satisfactorily well.
