“…This is in part due to selective migration into Spain. Moroccan migrants have higher levels of education than nonmigrants but lower levels than Spaniards (Amaghouss and Ibourk 2016;Sajoux and Chahoua 2012). The gap between nonmigrant Spanish women and nonmigrant Moroccan women also closes when educational differences are taken into account, consistent with findings from prior studies on Turkish migrants in Europe (Baykara-Krumme and Milewski 2017; Milewski 2011).…”

BACKGROUND Southern Europe experienced large-scale migration in the recent decades. Compared to regions with a longer migration history, the assimilation and socialization processes of family formation and age of childbearing for young adults of migrant background is underexplored. Spain, in particular, is now home to a burgeoning second generation of which little is known. OBJECTIVE This study explores the family living arrangements of Moroccans in Spain by migrant generation and time, using census microdata from the Integrated Public-Use Microdata Series International (IPUMS-i) and the Spanish Statistical Office (INE). We examine the living arrangements as an estimate for family processes for young adults of Moroccan origin between ages 20 to 34 separately by sex.

“…More recent research has shown that Catholics have significantly lower rates of divorce than Protestants (Teachman 2002), while conservative Protestants and Mormons are more likely to enter their first marriage earlier than Jews and Catholics (Lehrer 2004). Meanwhile, while there has been significant fertility decline in some Muslim-majority countries e.g., Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, Libya, Kuwait, Iran, and Oman, (Courbage and Todd 2007;Eberstadt and Shah 2012;Sajoux and Chahoua 2012), fertility rates of the most Muslim-majority countries remain above the world average of 2.4 children (Roudi-Fahimi, May, and Lynch 2013). Moreover, at the individual level, Muslims were generally found to have more children and more likely to want another child than members of other religious groups (Morgan et al 2002).…”

Background: The influence of religion on demographic behaviors has been extensively studied mainly for Abrahamic religions. Although Buddhism is the world's fourth largest religion and is dominant in several Asian nations experiencing very low fertility, the impact of Buddhism on childbearing has received comparatively little research attention. Objective: This paper draws upon a variety of data sources in different countries in Asia in order to test our hypothesis that Buddhism is related to low fertility. Methods: Religious differentials in terms of period fertility in three nations (India, Cambodia and Nepal) and cohort fertility in three case studies (Mongolia, Thailand and Japan) are analyzed. The analyses are divided into two parts: descriptive and multivariate analyses. Results: Our results suggest that Buddhist affiliation tends to be negatively or not associated with childbearing outcomes, controlling for education, region of residence, age and marital status. Although the results vary between the highly diverse contextual and institutional settings investigated, we find evidence that Buddhist affiliation or devotion is not related to elevated fertility across these very different cultural settings. Conclusions: Across the highly diverse cultural and developmental contexts under which the different strains of Buddhism dominate, the effect of Buddhism is consistently negatively or insignificantly related to fertility. These findings stand in contrast to studies of Abrahamic religions that tend to identify a positive link between religiosity and fertility

“…The role of women's higher education in lowering fertility was reported in several studies [ 3 , 17 ] However, the effect of women´s education was stronger in Burundi than in Morocco. This finding would be the result of the great success of the Moroccan national family planning program [ 3 ] in reducing socioeconomic disparities for access to FP services [ 35 ], unlike Burundi, where socioeconomic inequalities in access to FP services persist [ 23 ].…”

“…However, the effect of the household wealth index was no longer significant in the Moroccan context based on our findings. This is probably due to the fact that in Morocco, all couples adopted a childbearing behavior in favor of a small family regardless of their socioeconomic status, especially through a poverty Malthusianism that would have influenced the fertility decline in rural areas, thus among poor households [ 35 ].…”

Introduction few studies have examined the factors influencing fertility differentials and the variation in their effects in countries with different socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds and different fertility transition paces. To address this gap, our study sought to first identify the factors that influenced fertility differentials in Morocco and Burundi during their fertility transition periods, and then to compare the effects of these factors between the two countries. Methods using data from the 2003-4 Morocco and 2010 Burundi Demographic and Health Surveys, bivariable and multivariable Poisson regression analyses offset by the natural logarithm of the women´s age were performed to identify the socioeconomic and cultural factors that influenced fertility differentials in Morocco and Burundi during their fertility transition. Results our main findings showed that the total number of children ever born ranged from 0 to 17 with a mean of 2.71 ± 2.89 in Burundi and from 0 to 16 with a mean of 1.88 ± 2.80 in Morocco. In Burundi, both socioeconomic and cultural factors like rural residence adjusted incident rate ratio (AIRR) = 1.159, 95% CI: 1.103 - 1.217, P=0.020), women´s illiteracy (AIRR=1.465, 95% CI: 1.241- 1.729, P <0.001) and agricultural profession (AIRR=1. 332, 95% CI: 1.263 - 1.401, P = 0.004), household poverty (AIRR= 1.381, 95% CI: 1.223 - 1.431, p<0.001), infant mortality (AIRR= 1.602, 95% CI: 1.562 - 1.643, p<0.001), early marriage (AIRR= 1.313, 95% CI: 1.264 - 1.364, p<0.001), lack of knowledge of any contraceptives (AIRR= 1.263, 95% CI: 1.125 - 1.310, p = 0.003) and failure to use modern contraceptives (AIRR= 1.520, 95% CI: 1.487 - 1.611, p<0.001) were associated with high number of children ever born. However, in Morocco socioeconomic factors like residence place, women´s agricultural profession and household poverty were not significant. In this country, women´s illiteracy (AIRR=1.428, 95% CI: 1.315 - 1.551, P <0.001), lack of access to mass media (AIRR= 1.241, 95% CI: 1.108 - 1.375, p = 0.006), infant mortality (AIRR=1.222, 95%CI: 1.184 - 1.361, p<0.001), early marriage (AIRR1.481, 95% CI: 1.435 - 1.529, p<0.001), lack of knowledge of any contraceptives (AIRR1.508, 95% CI: 1.409 - 1.613, p<0.001) and failure to use modern contraceptives (AIRR1.745, 95% CI: 1.627 - 1.863, p<0.001) were associated with high fertility but with different effects than in Burundi. Conclusion the evidence from this study suggests that interventions to accelerate the fertility transition processes in Burundi and many other countries with slow fertility transitions should be designed and implemented according to each country's local context.
