Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Social science
  • Poverty
  • Fertility

John B. Casterline mainly investigates Fertility, Developing country, Empirical research, Economic growth and Socioeconomics. Fertility and Diffusion are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. His Developing country research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Demography and Survey data collection.

His Empirical research study incorporates themes from Population policy, Development economics and Empirical measure. His work on Urbanization as part of general Economic growth study is frequently linked to Transition, bridging the gap between disciplines. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Currently Married, Abortion, Child mortality and Demographic transition.

His most cited work include:

  • Social learning social influence and new models of fertility. (357 citations)
  • Unmet Need for Family Planning in Developing Countries and Implications for Population Policy (254 citations)
  • Fertility Transition: Is sub-Saharan Africa Different? (199 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Fertility, Demography, Developing country, Socioeconomic status and Economic growth. His research in Fertility intersects with topics in Total fertility rate, Socioeconomics and Demographic economics. The concepts of his Demographic economics study are interwoven with issues in Social relation, Affect, Social influence, Poverty and Life course approach.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Developed country, Demographic analysis, Marital status and Child mortality in addition to Demography. John B. Casterline combines subjects such as Social change, Survey methodology and Survey data collection with his study of Developing country. The Economic growth study combines topics in areas such as Development economics, Gender studies and Empirical research.

Casterline undertakes multidisciplinary study on Fertility and Power. His studies deal with areas such as Regional science, Unintended pregnancy and Infertility as well as Demography.

His Fertility Preferences study combines topics in areas such as Predictive power, Contraceptive use and Demographic analysis. John B. Casterline focuses mostly in the field of Total fertility rate, narrowing it down to topics relating to Birth rate and, in certain cases, Cohort, Population growth and Parity. His Survey data collection research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Economic growth, Research proposal, Survey methodology and Reproductive medicine.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Reasons for unmet need for family planning, with attention to the measurement of fertility preferences: protocol for a multi-site cohort study (33 citations)
