Evert van Imhoff's research while affiliated with Netherlands Interdisciplinary Demographic Institute and other places

... For example, past studies of family structure in high-income countries (HICs) highlight the importance of parental time, economic and social resources for child well-being [14,15], and familial stability [16] on health. Other studies show that households provide a physical place that supports childrearing, procreation, consumption and economic production [17][18][19]. Families and homes also provide resources to identify and manage child health [20,21]. ...

... On the other hand, the United Nations, and much demographic literature, define a family as a group of related individuals sharing a household (Willekens 2009). Models for household demography describe transition among family types using multistate models and microsimulations (e.g., van Imhoff et al. 1995). ...

... Le modèle probabiliste de survie proposé par le statisticien David Cox permet, par exemple, d'étudier les probabilités de survenue d'un événement à chaque instant du parcours de vie et selon plusieurs variables explicatives (Cox, 1972 ;Mills, 2011 ;Willekens, 2014). D'autres modèles statistiques vont rendre possible la mesure d'interactions entre les différents événements d'un parcours de vie ainsi que de l'influence des éléments de contexte, pour affiner la compréhension des causalités lorsqu'un événement se produit (Willekens, 1991(Willekens, , 1999Mulder, 1993 ;Courgeau, 2002). Enfin, des algorithmes, comme l'optimal matching, permettent de comparer entre elles les séquences constituées par les parcours de vie pour les comparer selon le nombre de changements survenus, leurs types ou encore leurs ordres d'apparition (Robette, 2009(Robette, , 2011Gabadinho et al., 2011). ...

... The general answer to these questions has been known for many years, both in theory and from empirical studies (Lesthaeghe et al., 1988;Wattelar and Roumans, 1991;Blanchet, 1989;Calot, 1983;Kuijsten, 1995;van Imhoff and Keilman, 1996). The European Commission (1996) showed that to preserve the current PSR of the 15 EU countries would require 4.5m (net) immigrants per year by 2007, 7m net per year by 2024, and so on. ...

... Specifically, we use the " Family interrelationship variables " of iPumS (Sobek and Kennedy 2009) to construct a new typology for classifying individuals in various household living arrangements. this classification was inspired by the original european liPRo typology developed by evert van imhoff to project (-PRo) individual living (li-) arrangements (van imhoff and Keilman 1991; van imhoff 1995). the liPRo typology has been used for multistate projections of household positions of individuals in belgium, the netherlands, and the united Kingdom (van imhoff 1995; Surkyn 1999; department for communities and local Government 2009), as well as more extensively for studying trends in national or regional subpopulations by socioeconomic and immigrant status (deboosere 1992; deboosere et al. 1997, 2009). ...

... van Imhoff and Post 1997;Murphy 2003;Holm et al. 2006;Zaidi and Rake 2001;Morand et al. 2010;Ravulaparthy and Goulias 2011;Chingcuanco and Miller 2013). The principal difference between the different types of demographic model resides in the level of disaggregation used when applying probabilities. ...

... Moreover, each group is examined under two levels, or indicators, but the analysis does not rely on a multilevels method stricto sensu. (For details regarding this latter method, see, e.g., Goldstein, 1995;Courgeau, 1998). Table 2 displays the indicators of the shared values and shared means for each social group at each period, and reports the intra-group homogeneity index. ...

... The research followed a relational way of identifying persons and families according to their vernacular understanding of ethnic identity. By including the entire local population extracted from records and by merging all related pedigrees (Agarwala et al., 2001), most of the problems of genealogical reconstitution (Post et al., 1997;Zhao, 2001) were avoided. Thus, the registers were checked backwards and forwards to reduce the problems commonly associated with personal genealogies of known or important people (Bideau and Poulain, 1984;Dupâquier, 1993). ...

... Application of age-and sex-specific participation rates, which vary over the regions and years, results in regional labour supply (by age and sex). These participation rates are equal to the existing DGVLAB labour supply scenarios (Van Dalen et al., 1999). Underlying these rates is a set of assumptions formalised in a parametric model that includes various determining variables. ...

... In this chapter, we have shown how the multiplicative component projection model may be used to provide future estimates of internal migration by origin, destination, age and sex with measures of uncertainty. It extends earlier research using multiplicative or log-linear models to forecast internal migration (Stillwell 1986;Willekens and Baydar 1986;Van Imhoff et al. 1997; Van der Gaag et al. 2000;Sweeney and Konty 2002;Raymer et al. 2006;Van Wissen et al. 2008;Raymer et al. 2017) by modelling each component separately and integrating uncertainty. The methodology is relatively simple and robust. ...
