SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

The Census Bureau is requesting

clearance for the collection of data

concerning the Fertility and Birth

Expectations Supplement to be

conducted in conjunction with the June

1998 CPS. The Census Bureau sponsors

the supplement questions, which were

previously collected in June 1995, and

have been asked periodically since

1971.

This survey provides information

used mainly by government and private

analysts to project future population

growth, to analyze child spacing, and to

aid policy makers in their decisions

affected by changes in family size and

composition. Past studies have

discovered noticeable changes in the

patterns of fertility rates, family

structures, premarital births, and the

timing of the first birth. Potential needs

for government assistance such as aid to

families with dependent children, child

care, and maternal health care for single

parent households can be estimated

using CPS characteristics matched with

fertility data. The birth expectations

data also assist researchers and analysts

who explore issues such as

postponement of childbirth because of

education or employment

responsibilities.

II. Method of Collection

The fertility and birth expectations

information will be collected by both

personal visit and telephone interviews

in conjunction with the regular June

CPS interviewing. All interviews are

conducted using computer-assisted

interviewing.
