讲座提纲：

This talk will examine the association of personal and family income and wealth with fertility and number of child bearing unions for men and women using newly released data from the 2014 wave of the Survey of Income and Program Participation by the U.S. Census that contains the first national measures of complete male and female fertility as well as measures of multi-partner fertility. Results show that personal income (net of other family income and wealth) is positively associated with total fertility and number of child bearing unions for men and is negatively associated with total fertility and number of child bearing unions for women. Family income (net of personal income and wealth) is positively associated with total fertility for women only. For both men and women, net of personal and family income, personal and household net worth are negatively associated with total fertility.
