Abstract

This paper is based on survey work carried out by the author in Lagos. Examines the possible interactions that may exist between female labour force participation (FLFP) and fertility. The model utilized consists of two simultaneous equations. Also examines some important household fertility patterns/characteristics based on information obtained from the survey. The issues considered involve the variables that play an important role on fertility-level decisions, and the general fertility attitudes of Lagos households. -from Author
