Abstract
DIAZ-FERNANDEZ, Montserrat; LLORENTE-MARRON, María del Mar and MENDEZ-RODRIGUEZ, María Paz. An analysis of the relationship between short term fertility and marriage: Spain 1975-2013. PSM [online]. 2015, vol.12, n.2, pp.105-125. ISSN 1659-0201.
The study analyzes in Spain the relationship between fecundity and marriage. In order to analyze how marriage and fertility are interrelated variables over time empirically evaluated a model that attempts to capture the non-causal temporal relationships between both phenomena in Spain. The analysisis approached by a VAR model and impulse response functions. The data used comes from the National Statistics Institute (INE). It has proven a fluctuating relationship between the two processes and weakly procyclical. The performances on births generate effects on both series showing influence-leadership.
