生育理论研究述评

Review on Fertility Theory Research

不同时期的学者基于不同理论视角对人口与生育问题进行了深入研究,形成了诸多理论。生育研究从解释逆马尔萨斯现象,到探寻生育意愿影响因素,再到直面女性生育意愿,从理论探索走向具体实证研究。基于理论演进的内在逻辑,文章对生育经济学理论、理性行动理论及计划行为理论、偏好理论进行了系统梳理、评述,期望学者从新的视角开展生育意愿与生育行为的相关研究。

Scholars in different era have carried out in-depth researches and established a lot of theories from different perspectives.Fertility research,starting from the explanation of the anti-Malthus phenomenon to the focus on the factors influencing child-bearing willingness and then to women's child-bearing willingness directly,is transforming from theoretical exploration to empirical study.Based on the internal logic of theory evolution,this paper reviews on childbearing economics theories,rational and planned behavior theories and preference theories systematically,with the hope of providing new perspectives for scholars in child-bearing willingness and child-bearing behavior research.
