Interesting: the difficulty “older” women have conceiving may be exaggerated because of selection effects Rethinking age-specific fecundability: Selection bias can generate apparent rapid decline with age austriaca.at?arp=0x0041dd...
Sorry we had a temporary glitch on the link! The paper is fully available online here: austriaca.at/0xc1aa5572%2...
‼️Rethinking age-specific fecundability: New Research Article by Amanda Jean Stevenson, Leslie J. Root and Jane Menken demonstrate that selection alone can generate substantial depression in observed fecundability at later ages. 🔗https://austriaca.at/?arp=0x0041ddba§0x0041ddb7 #demography

📢Research Article out in @vypr.bsky.social ! Nadja Milewski and @passetwittig.bsky.social examine how adverse reproductive experiences #ARE, including #infertility, #miscarriage and #abortion, can be better integrated into demographic fertility research. 🔗 austriaca.at?arp=0x00419b...
✔️Research article! @kbroussard.bsky.social underlines that concepts such as “ #fertility gaps” or “ #unmet fertility goals” should be defined carefully, measured consistently, and interpreted in relation to the specific construct they capture. 🔗 austriaca.at/0xc1aa5572%2...
As fertility decline becomes a growing topic of debate, we must distinguish between changing preferences vs fertility barriers. Claims about fertility shortfalls, including who is most affected, depend heavily on how we define and measure them. Read the paper here: austriaca.at/0xc1aa5572_0...
