PSYCH 10 Chapter Notes - Chapter 9.3: Case Fatality Rate, Population Momentum, Fecundity
Document Summary
Males and females separated by y axis; x-axis represents population. Crude birth rate: annual number of births per 1000 people in a population. Crude death rate: annual number of deaths per 10000 people. Rate of population change: difference between crude birth and crude death rates. Age specific birth/death rates: specific to a certain age group. Fertility: ability of a woman to reproduce. Fecundity: potential reproductive capacity of a woman. General fertility rate: annual number of births per 1000 women in a population. Total fertility rate: the total number of births per single woman in a population with the assumption that the woman experiences the current recorded age specific fertility rates and reaches the end of her productive life. Replacement fertility rate: fertility rate at which the population will remain balanced. Sub-replacement fertility rate: birth rate is less than the death rate; population not sustained.
