Population Studies of Japan,2198-2724981-10-0175-8 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters.1: Introduction (Konishi and Tamaki) -- 1.1: Biodemography of fertility in Japan (Konishi) -- 1.2: Social background (Tamaki) -- 1.3: Biomedical background (Konishi) -- 2: Proximate determinants of fertility in Japan (Konishi and Tamaki) -- 2.1: Contraception and artificial abortion (Konishi) -- 2.2: Menstrual cycle (Tamaki) -- 2.3: Postpartum amenorrhea (Konishi) -- 2.4: Time to pregnancy and coital frequency (Konishi) -- 3: Environmental factors affecting proximate determinants of fertility (Yoshinaga) -- 4: Directions for future research (Konishi, Tamaki, Yoshinaga).This book presents original data on the proximate determinants of fertility in Japan. Its goal is to disaggregate low fertility levels in Japan into physiological, behavioral, and social components. Further, the book reviews previous studies on the proximate determinants of fertility in Japan, and compares the data to that on other countries.  This book is the first to summarize previous research projects conducted in Japan on this topic, and proposes future research directions to fill the remaining research gaps. Further, it sheds new light on the similarities and differences between the fertility level in Japan and in other countries in terms of biodemographical components, helping readers understand the mechanisms of fertility change in Japan.Population Studies of Japan,2198-2724DemographySocial groupsFamiliesFamiliesFamilies—Social aspectsPopulationDemographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X25000Sociology of Family, Youth and Aginghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22080Familyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X27000Population Economicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/W38000Demography.Social groups.Families.Families.Families—Social aspects.Population.Demography.Sociology of Family, Youth and Aging.Family.Population Economics.304.6320952Konishiauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut2014733 Shoko.2014734Tamaki Emi.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autYoshinaga Jun.authttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300857603321Biodemography of Fertility in Japan4805396UNINA
