摘要

背景/背景：在发展中国家，农村地区的生育率通常高于城市地区。这在一定程度上是由于农村地区获得和利用生殖健康服务的机会较低。然而，向城市迁移可能会改变农村地区移民的生育行为。数据来源和方法：该研究使用了2012年贝宁共和国人口与健康调查数据，重点关注居住在科托努的15-49岁已婚妇女（n=722）。多元水平分析采用托比特回归。研究结果表明，流动人口逐渐适应非流动人口的生育模式。移民的生育偏好与非移民相似，他们的相对选择性加剧了这种逐渐适应。最后，最近因就业或上学原因移民的出生人数在过去五年中最低，这支持了破坏假说。结论：移民生育关系取决于居住年限、移民社会经济特征和移民原因。

Impact of internal migration on fertility in Cotonou, Benin Republic

Context/Background: In developing countries, fertility is usually higher in rural than urban areas. This is partly due to lower access to and utilization of reproductive health services in rural areas. However, migration to cities may alter the fertility behaviour of migrants from rural areas. Data Source and Methods: The study used 2012 Benin Republic Demographic and Health Survey data and focused on married women aged 15-49 years and residing in Cotonou (n=722). Tobit regression was employed for the multivariate-level analysis. Findings: The results showed that migrants adapt gradually to the fertility patterns of non-migrants. This gradual adaptation is compounded by a relative selectivity of migrants whose fertility preferences are similar to those of non-migrants. Finally, recent migrants for employment or school reason had the lowest number of births over the past five years, which supports the disruption hypothesis. Conclusion: The migration-fertility relationship depends on the length of residence, migrant’ socioeconomic characteristics and reason for migration.
