🎉 New research out with @fertdem.bsky.social and @vegardskirbekk.bsky.social !

💡 Time to ART birth decreased since the 2000s, and is shorter for those in their late 30s — likely reflecting improved treatment efficiency and faster access to care.

Time to birth for spontaneous and ART births among infertile groups - PubMed

While assisted reproductive technologies enable individuals facing infertility issues to achieve a live birth, they require more time to succeed. However, since the 2000s, time to ART births has decreased, with the shortest observed among those initiating conception attempts in their late thirties. …

New paper alert on - you guessed it - childbearing decision-making!

@srhayford.bsky.social & I evaluate if people's perceptions of their personal lives & how things are going more broadly are associated with whether they thought it was likely they would have a(nother) child. 1/

CHAPTER 6
SUBJECTIVE EVALUATIONS OF PERSONAL AND PUBLIC WELL-BEING AND EXPECTED FUTURE CHILDBEARING
Karen Benjamin Guzzo and Sarah R. Hayford

ABSTRACT
Since the Great Recession, birth rates have fallen steadily in the United States and other
high-income countries, even as macroeconomic conditions improved and have since remained largely
positive. To understand this surprising juxta- position, scholars are increasingly turning to
subjective measures of current and future conditions, hypothesizing that worries about potential
negative futures may lead to lower birth rates even when economic conditions are good. Building on
this literature, we use survey data from the American Trends Panel (ATP; n = 3,696) to assess how
respondents’ satisfaction with their own lives, their understanding of challenges facing young
people, their beliefs about problems in their community, and their predictions of future COVID-19
impacts are associated with their expectations for having children. Results show that people who
are more dissatisfied with their own lives are less likely to expect a child, controlling for other
perceptions as well as objective sociodemographic char- acteristics. Further analyses reveal that
this association is largely restricted to
childless women.

Oui c’est intéressant. D’après Prioux j’ai l’impression qu’il y avait une bonne quantité de mariages tardifs (et donc de 1ere naissances tardives) au 19eme siècle. T’en penses quoi ?

Today’s poem celebrates Fibonacci Day. It’s called ‘Word Crunching’.

Word Crunching

I
wrote
a poem
on a page
but then each line grew
to the word sum of the previous two
until I began to worry about all these words coming with such frequency
because as you can see, it can be easy to run out of space when a poem gets all Fibonacci sequency
