Journal Article
Demography (1987) 24 (3): 431–438.
Published: 01 August 1987
...Pietro Cerone Abstract The paper extends stable population theory to include a constant stream of immigration. Previous attempts at tackling the problem have either restricted themselves to a below-replacement native population or else used an approach that does not produce the values of all...

...David D. McFarland Abstract Expositions and elementary proofs are given for the basic theorems of stable population theory: That a population subjected to vital rates (not necessarily constant over time) satisfying certain postulates will eventually “forget” its original age distribution and take...

...Robert A. Pollak Abstract The ability of classical stable population theory to determine the equilibrium growth rate and age structure of a population from its vital rates in a single period depends on assuming that the observed maternity rates are equilibrium rates. This paper resolves the two-sex...

Published: 01 February 1980
...Kenneth W. Wachter Abstract Goldman (1978) has proposed a formula derived from stable population theory for estimating growth rates from certain counts of younger and older sisters in a population. Computer microsimulation outputs show extraordinarily large statistical errors for estimation when...

... the stability of the regional age distributions, and this article continues the discussion by indicating the formulas for stable age-specific migration rates and the probabilities for each region. These formulas should be of some interest since most of the previous discussion in stable population theory deals...

...Thomas J. Espenshade; Leon F. Bouvier; W. Brian Arthur Abstract This paper reports on work aimed at extending stable population theory to include immigration. Its central finding is that, as long as fertility is below replacement, a constant number and age distribution of immigrants (with fixed...

...Noreen Goldman Abstract Based on stable population theory, a mathematical relationship is developed between the intrinsic rate of increase ( r ) of a population and the ratio ( Z ) of the average number of younger sisters ever born to the average number of older sisters ever born, for a random...

... and discuss the insights that can be obtained in the context of stable population theory. Second, I suggest a statistical model of household consumption as a function of household size and age structure to quantitatively evaluate the extent of economies of scale in consumption of energy-intensive goods...

Demography (1976) 13 (2): 259–272.
Published: 01 May 1976
...James C. McCann Abstract This paper describes a method of estimating life expectancy at birth on the basis of crude vital rates. The method is derived from stable population theory and it furnishes good estimates insofar as the current crude vital rates of a population are close to its intrinsic...

...Thomas W. Pullum Abstract Associated with every real birth cohort of women is a set of probabilities { f k } of eventually having k daughters. With a variant of stable population theory, these probabilities are used to generate the entire probability distributions, as well as all moments, for all...
