Abstract

La presente investigación estudia la evolución de las decisiones sobre natalidad y nupcialidad de las mujeres peruanas en el período 1996-2016. En particular, se estudiaron las relaciones entre dichas decisiones y el nivel educativo alcanzado por la mujer, la generación a la que pertenece, y la región en la que vive. Para ello, se utilizaron datos provenientes de la Encuesta Nacional Demográfica y Salud (ENDES). La estrategia empírica consistió en un modelo de probabilidad condicional, y una regresión de mínimos cuadrados ordinarios (OLS). Se encontró que un mayor nivel educativo tiene un efecto negativo sobre la demanda de hijos y sobre la decisión de convivir en pareja; sin embargo, influye positivamente en la decisión de casarse. Además, dicho efecto es heterogéneo según locación geográfica y nivel de ruralidad. Finalmente, se evidenció que las mujeres de generaciones más recientes, prefieren tener menos hijos y se casan menos.
