Adolescents pertains to the
segment of population who are 10-19 years old. (WHO)
Age Specific Fertility Rate refers to the
number of births to women of a given age group per 1,000
women in that age group.
How is Age Specific Fertility Rate calculated?
by dividing the number of births to women of a particular
age group by the female population in that age group multiplied by 1,000. (PSA)
Children pertains to the
segment of population who are 0-17 years old. (CWC)
Demographic Dividend refers to the
economic growth experienced by a country as a result of the change
in the country’s population structure.
Demographic Dividend is a product of ?
Demographic Transition
(Demographic Dividend) In which the demographic transition is characterized by markedly
declining mortality and fertility rates, resulting in the shrinking of the
dependent age (0-14) group and expanding of the workforce (ages 15-64).
Demographic Transition pertains to the transition from a
rough equilibrium of high fertility and
high mortality, through a period of rapid growth when declining mortality coexists with continuing
high fertility, to an ultimate equilibrium of low fertility and low mortality.
Demographic transition
directly influences the_________________________ of the population.
age structure
The age structure of a population refers to the
proportionate numbers of people in different age categories in a given population for a defined time
The population pyramid is a
graphical illustration that shows the distribution of age groups of different genders and ages in a population.
Demographic Transition has ___ phases
3
first phase of the demographic transition is triggered
by
an initial decline in infant mortality (death rate) but fertility (birth rate) remains high, resulting in
the swelling of the youth dependency group.
The second phase is when the
proportion of the working-age population (defined as those aged 15
to 64) is larger relative to the young dependents (0 to 14 years) and the older population (65 years
and above).
This is the phase when the number of productive working age population is the highest.
Second phase of demographic Transition
The third phase of the transition is when
the older cohort (those aged 65 years and above)
swells relative to the total population.
The growing ageing population during the third phase of the
demographic transition can create a slowdown in the country’s economic growth as the
number of
consumers (the older population) grows faster compared to productive workers.

social, political and cultural. (PSA Board Resolution No. 08 series of 2017)
Population Momentum occurs when a
country’s fertility rate declines to or below replacement
level (2.1 children per woman), yet the population size continues to grow due to the age structure of
the population.
Replacement Fertility Level is the
level of fertility at which a population exactly replaces itself from
one generation to the next.

matters related to the reproductive system which implies that people are able to have a satisfying and
