摘要

本研究考察初潮年龄与两个生育相关变量——预期结婚年龄和预期子女数量之间的关系。随机样本包括来自赞比亚铜带和卢萨卡中部省份的525名年龄在13-21岁之间的中学女生。初潮年龄在10 ~ 18岁之间，平均为14.2 + 1.4 (mean + SD)岁。初潮年龄和预期结婚年龄之间的关系虽弱，但呈正相关。此外，初潮年龄与预期子女数量的关系发现是弱的，但在负方向。

Age at menarche among adolescent females in Zambia: implication for family formation.

This study examines the relationships between age at menarche and two fertility related variables, expected age at marriage and expected number of children. The random sample consists of 525 secondary school-going females in the age range 13-21 years from the Copperbelt and Lusaka Central Provinces in Zambia. It was found that the age of menarche ranged from 10 to 18 years with a mean of 14.2 + 1.4 (mean + SD) years. The association between age at menarche and expected age at marriage was found to be weak but positive. Furthermore, the association of age at menarche with expected number of children was found to be weak but in the negative direction.
