Abstract
"In the present paper, a method of constructing a fertility table based on the observed current parity distribution, developed by Nour (1984), is used to obtain a parity-specific fertility [rate] for Egypt....Nour's method is based on the assumption that women at a given parity and age will have the same fertility behavior regardless of their previous experience." Data are from the 1980 Egyptian Fertility Survey.
