Notes: R2 and adjusted R2 values for regressions are based on separate groups of independent variables of interest. The R2 values in Table 5 are generated from seven separate OLS regression models in which net fertility is the dependent variable, and the independent variables are the variables listed in the “Variables in Group” column. The sample is restricted to mothers in 1911 who were married fewer than 15 years with spouse present, were aged 16–49, and married between ages 16 and 40. The independent variables of interest related to naming are measured from children within the household who were under age 15.
