Ch. 5 Supplement Flashcards
The number of births to women in a certain age cohort divided by the number of women in that cohort
Age-Specific Birth Rate
All individuals in a certain age range
Cohort
Annual number of live births per 1000 population
Crude Birth Rate
Annual number of deaths per 1000 population
Crude Death Rate
The difference between crude birth rate and the crude rate
Crude Rate of Natural Increase
Continue population growth long after replacement-level fertility rates have been reached
Demographic Momentum
A model of population change from an equilibrium with high birth and death rates through a high-growth transition period in which death rates decline sooner than birth rates, to a new equilibrium with low birth and death rates
Demographic Transition Model
Scattered settlements of a particular national group living abroad
Diaspora
A state in which forces of change are in balance
Equilibrium
Same as demographic Momentum
Hidden Momentum
Number of deaths of children under one year of age per 1000 live births in a year
Infant Mortality Rate
A graph showing the number of males and females in discrete age cohorts
Population Pyramid
The fertility rate at which each female in a population produces on average one female baby who survives to the time when she herself can reproduce
Replacement Fertility
The average number of children a woman would have during her reproductive years assuming the current fertility rates of women across all ages
Total Fertility Rate
A state in which the crude birth rate minus the crude death rate equals zero. The number of death s exactly offsets the number the of births
Zero Population Growth
