Ethnic Diversity Survey

Question

A faculty member here is looking at using the Ethnic Diversity Survey. We couldn’t find a “number of children ever born” variable - is there any measure of fertility other than number of children in the household (which obviously doesn’t capture children who have moved out)?

Answer

The author division of the Ethnic Diversity Survey has confirmed that this survey does not measure the number of children who live outside of the household.
