  • 摘要:Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Nuptiality is a phenomenon closely related to fertility. The age-specific marriage distribution has a typical shape common in all human populations. In order to estimate this pattern, alternative parametric models have been proposed. However recent evidence suggests that mixture models are required to estimate nuptiality patterns. In this paper, a flexible parametric model is proposed in three versions, appropriate to describe the age pattern of first marriage rates. For evaluation purposes the models as well as the alternative existing models are fitted to a variety of empirical datasets.
