Low Fertility and the State: The Efficacy of Policy (2006, background): “… What is required is coherent application of a range of well-designed interventions, applied consistently over time (Sleebos 2003: 5).”
Labour Force Participation of Women: Empirical Evidence on The Role of Policy and Other Determinants in OECD Countries (2004, background): “Policies which help women reconcile work and family may actually stimulate both participation and fertility ( see Sleebos , 2003 for a review of the literature ) , providing an additional channel to reduce the future burden on younger generations of financing a growing number of retirees .”
Education and Fertility: Evidence from a Natural Experiment (2008, unknown): “The number of children per woman in the different countries has converged over time and for those cohorts who have now completed their fertility, the number of children is close to the replacement level at 2.1 (Sleebos, 2003; Björklund, 2006).”
Gender Equity and Fertility in Italy and Spain (2009, background): “The likelihood of second rather than first birth is chosen because although the likelihood of any birth has declined somewhat across OECD countries, the most dramatic drop affecting the fertility rate is the much lower likelihood of second and subsequent births (Kohler et al., 2002; Sleebos, 2003).”
The impact of family policies on fertility in industrialized countries: a review of the literature (2007, background): “As such, the paper expands and updates the reviews by Chesnais (1996), Demeny (1987), Gauthier (1996), Hecht and Leridon (1993), McNicoll (1998) and Sleebos (2003).”
Family policies in developed countries: a ‘fertility-booster’ with side-effects (2011, background): “Sleebos (2003) and Gauthier (2007), for example, observe that the results are often contradictory or inconclusive.”
Low fertility in Europe: causes implications and policy options. (2006, background): “ducted in recent years (e.g., Gauthier 1996, 2002; Gauthier and Hatzius 1997; Grant et al. 2004; Pampel 2001; Sleebos 2003 ), although virtually all of these studie s fall short of a sophisticated policy evaluation based on experimental studies.”
