M. Gutmann, R. Wyrick
The authors describe and evaluate a series of historical demographic methods that fall between family reconstitution and aggregative methods and that were developed during a study of the demographic impact of early industrialization on the processes of fertility, nuptiality, and migration in Verviers, Belgium. The methods involve the use of truncated fertility histories for the first few years of marriage rather than complete fertility histories. The authors suggest that the methods proposed are an effective means of reducing the cost of accumulating data while increasing the number of cases studied.

S. Dubnoff
The author provides "two independent estimates of the minimum adequacy poverty line for a family of four [in the United States] over the period 1860-1909. Adjustments [are] estimated from late nineteenth-century data which enable the scaling of these poverty lines for families which differed in composition." The theoretical and methodological assumptions used in the analysis are outlined (EXCERPT)

N. Fitch
The author reviews the conclusions of Wachter Hammel and Laslett (see 45: Title 2614) regarding the social values associated with preindustrial household formation in England. She discusses the value of the approach taken by the authors and examines the appropriateness and accuracy of their methodology. Errors and limitations in the use of micro-simulation models are identified and various conceptual problems in the method used are discussed (ANNOTATION)
